Residential Gate Problems We Fix

Many home gate problems start small. If ignored, they can damage the opener, motor, track, hinges, or frame.

Home Gate Won’t Open

If your home gate won’t open, the issue may involve the opener, motor, power supply, remote, keypad, sensor, track, or hinge alignment.

Home Gate Won’t Close

A gate that stays open can reduce privacy and security. We check sensors, limits, alignment, controls, and mechanical parts.

Gate Motor Not Working

A failed motor can stop an automatic gate completely. We inspect the motor, power, wiring, control board, and related parts.

Gate Opener Not Responding

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

Sliding Gate Off Track

A residential sliding gate can drag, grind, or stop moving when tracks, rollers, guides, or supports are worn or damaged.

Swing Gate Sagging or Scraping

A swing gate may sag, scrape, or fail to close because of hinge wear, post movement, frame stress, or alignment issues.
