Common Gate Problems We Fix

Many gate problems start small but get worse with daily use. We repair common issues before they lead to bigger failures.

Gate Won’t Open or Close

If your gate won’t open or gate won’t close, the issue may involve the opener, motor, sensor, remote, wiring, track, hinge, or alignment.

Gate Motor Not Working

A gate motor not working can stop an automatic system completely. We inspect the motor, power supply, control board, wiring, and related parts to find the cause.

Gate Opener Not Responding

If the opener does not respond to the remote, keypad, or control system, we check the opener, receiver, wiring, access device, and safety system.

Sliding Gate Off Track

A sliding gate can drag, grind, or stop moving when the rollers, track, guides, or alignment are damaged.

Swing Gate Sagging or Scraping

A swing gate may sag because of hinge wear, post movement, alignment problems, or heavy panel weight.

Noisy or Jerky Gate Movement

Grinding, shaking, squeaking, or uneven movement can point to worn parts, poor alignment, loose hardware, or a failing motor.

Electric and Automatic Gate Repairs

Automatic gates need mechanical and electrical parts to work together. When one part fails, the whole system can stop.

Electric Gate Repair

We repair electric gate issues involving motors, openers, controls, sensors, and wiring.

Automatic Gate Repair

We help with automatic gate repair when the system stops responding, reverses unexpectedly, moves slowly, or fails to complete a full cycle.
