Gate Motor Problems
Issues often arise with gate motors when the incorrect gate motor has been installed. It then needs to work harder than it is designed for. Other common problems are insects, ants etc. as mentioned above, that damage the electronics. Gate motors can also be damaged by lightning. When the gate motor is older, circuit boards often also need replacing. Batteries also regularly need replacing. Your gate motor repairs could involve any of these issues. Remember that a good quality gate motor should last 10 – 15 years.
Automated Gate Repairs
Your gate motor repairs may involve working on the gate motor itself or simply
replacing the battery or the gate motor PC board. A worn
gate rack or pinion will hinder smooth gate functioning. There could be a problem with the gate wheels or alignment. The gate repair may also involve welding. You may be having problems with the infrared beams which can be replaced. If needs be, you may need to replace the entire motor. We use only the best gate motors and install and do gate motor repairs according to gate manufacturer’s specifications.

Gate Motor Maintenance
The main maintenance required for your gate motor is to make sure that no animals or insects get inside. No gate motor is completely sealed, so it is easy for them to get in and damage the electronics. In order to protect your motor you need to treat it with insect and, especially, ant repellents.
Do not grease any part of the gate motor as dirt will stick to it and it will cause problems with the mechanics.
It is important to
look after your gate motor battery.
