How We Fix Common Gate Issues
Not all gate problems can be solved with a spray of lubricant or anti-rust. Even if it does, if the issue recurs after some time, it means the solution hasn’t addressed the root cause. A thorough inspection by a professional is required to see what the issue really is.
Unusual Noises
Some noise is normal, but a gate that makes you want to cover your ears every time it’s opened or closed isn’t. Common reasons for this are insufficient lubricant on the hinges, improper gate installation or deformed tracks (for sliding gates). In automatic gates, a noisy motor may also be an issue.
Slow Movement
An automatic gate that’s slow to open and close or a manual one that’s a pain to operate points to several potential problems. For the former, it may be that the automatic gate motor isn’t working as intended or underpowered for the electric gate. Both gates may also suffer from poor lubrication or wear and tear on the parts.
Stuck Partway Through
This sign is all too common in automatic gate systems; the electric gate slowly opens or closes, only to stop partway through. While it can occur during a power interruption, if there isn’t any, the issue may be with the system’s hardware. In some cases, dirt on the sensors may be hindering its function.
If any of these signs manifest, no matter how subtle, it’s a good idea to contact an expert at gate repairs. This is especially true for households with automatic gates, as tinkering with the motor without the proper equipment and know-how risks making the problems worse.

Frequently Asked Questions
What kinds of gates do you repair?
Our gate repair team can fix all kinds of gates, from simple swing gates to sophisticated gate automation systems.
How often should I service or inspect my automatic gate?
For inspection, it’s a good idea to do it every two months to see if there may be potential hindrances to the gate’s operation. As for gate maintenance or service, regardless of its state, it pays to get experienced technicians to do it at least once a year. The same applies to manual gates.
Can I do the repairs myself?
Repairing simple swing gates and other manual gates can be done DIY, provided you have the resources and time to undertake it. However, unless you’ve been repairing yours for a long time, we advise against DIY automatic gate repairs. One mistake can render the entire mechanism inoperable, perhaps even lead to costly spare parts replacement.
