When should you contact us?
If you’re seeking to have electric or automatic gates professionally installed at your residence or commercial property, then naturally you should give our gate installers a call and schedule a visit as soon as it’s convenient for you. Should you need our gate repair service, on the other hand, you might be experiencing one (or several) of the following common electric gate problems, and should call us immediately to arrange a technical visit from our gate repair company:
The gate is making a lot of noise ?
Automatic gates will sometimes begin to generate a lot of noise, and while this could be for a number of reasons, the most common cause is due to a worn-out mechanism. A technician will take apart and reassemble the mechanism or fit a new part, as appropriate.
Noisy gates aren’t desirable for you, and certainly not for your neighbors, so a visit from our gate repair team is essential should this problem occur.
The gate isn’t opening or closing ?
This is usually caused by a power outage, and because the gates rely on a power source in order to function, should the grid go down for some reason, they will not be operational. Should you suspect something else to be the cause of your non-functioning electric or automatic gate, however, you shouldn’t hesitate to call our gate repair team for help.
The remote control isn’t working ?
Remote controls may stop working from time to time, but usually, this can easily be solved by replacing the batteries. If you’ve replaced the batteries in your electric gate remote control and the problem persists, however, you should call our gate repair company and schedule a visit from a member of our team, or troubleshoot the problem with our available technicians.
The sensors are blocked ?
Electric and automatic gates rely on a fully functioning sensor in order to operate efficiently, but should something be physically blocking the sensor (such as insects, pests, moss, or debris)
This problem is usually solved without expert intervention from our gate repair crew, and more often than not, a simple visual check of the gates sensors will help you identify the cause of the problem, and enable you to solve it by simply removing the obstruction.
The gate is stuck in manual mode ?
Typically, a gate stuck in manual mode is the result of a problem with the batteries in the remote control or an issue with the gate’s opening mechanism. Check both of these before calling our gate repair company, and if you’re still unable to locate the source of the problem, we’ll get out to you as quickly as we can to resolve it for you.
The tracks are worn ?
Electric or automatic gates should open smoothly, in a fluid manner, but if for any reason they fail to do so, you should physically check the functionality of the gate to see if it’s moving sporadically, or gets stuck when opening and closing. If this is the case, then it’s likely that the gate track has become worn, and you’ll need help from our trained gate installers or gate repair team.
If you’re experiencing any of the issues mentioned above, then don’t hesitate to reach out to us at your convenience, and arrange for a consultation or visit from our technical gate repair crew.
