Servicing an automatic gate typically means lubricating the rack or hinges, checking limit switches, safety beams and the battery, and cleaning the controller. Kenyan installers list maintenance visits at roughly KSh 4,000 to 20,000 each. Service at least yearly, and sooner if the gate slows, stops halfway or makes noise.
Key takeaways
- Service at least once a year.
- Check safety beams and the battery.
- Noise or slowdowns signal wear.
- Keep the track clear.
