Electric Gate Repair

To ensure good gate security and working order of the electric gates, it is imperative that repairs be done in earnest. Wear and tear over time may cause malfunctioning electric gates to develop problems, including motor failure, hinge damage, and electronic malfunctions. While regular maintenance by a professional may prevent most of the common problems, in cases where problems do arise, expert technicians are usually capable of diagnosing these problems and making the necessary repairs in a short while. That said, whether it’s simply replacing a worn-out component, reprogramming the sensors, or upgrading the control board system, a well-kept electric gate guarantees peace of mind that contributes to amplified safety and property enhancement.

When do you need to Repair your Automatic Gate?

Unusual noises: Listen for any grinding, squeaking, or rattling noises. Quite commonly, such sounds indicate a mechanical issue, such as loose components, worn-out bearings, or the need for lubrication, thus rendering the gate in need of a check-up or repair.

Slow or inconsistent movement: When a gate moves more slowly, or stops unexpectedly, the culprit may be motor, gearbox, or obstructed tracks. Such symptoms may point to worn-out mechanical parts or parts in need of maintenance.

Nonresponsive gate: A gate that does not respond to the remote, keypad, or other control systems may have electrical problems. This could include dead batteries, faulty wiring, or malfunctioning control boards, which are in need of professional attention.

Excessive physical damage: Any visible damage, such as dents, rust, or misalignment of the gate or its tracks, needs to be addressed as soon as possible. Such physical damages will worsen with time, thus causing further gate malfunctions.

Frequent malfunctions: What could be seen as a frequent mal-functioning gate requiring reset may have been subjected to current deep sub-surfaces mechanical or electrical problems that may require one in the field to curb, thereby restoring into proper operation.
