Bearings wear, chains stretch, and safety sensors drift out of alignment long before a gate actually stops working. Automatic gate servicing typically covers: - Motor and control board testing - Safety sensor and limit switch checks - Remote and receiver testing - Backup battery testing - Track, hinge and lubrication checks - Written service reports If your automatic gate system was installed by another provider, we assess it on its own merits and tell you plainly what we can do. Common Problems ## Automatic Gate Faults We Fix The faults we're most often called to handle in warehouses & logistics. ### Gate Not Opening/Closing Motor, control board, or mechanical obstruction faults. ### Motor Faults Worn or failed motor components affecting movement. ### Remote Control Issues Remote pairing, receiver, or control-board faults. ### Safety Sensor Faults Faulty photo-eye or safety-edge sensors stopping normal operation. ### Backup Battery Problems Failed backup battery affecting operation during a power cut. ### Slow or Noisy Operation Mechanical wear, alignment, or lubrication issues.

That's Fine. Properties change hands, contractors move on, and the original installer of your automatic gate system may no longer be around. None of that means the system is beyond help. We assess the existing equipment and configuration, then tell you plainly whether it can be: - Repaired as-is - Reconfigured - Upgraded in part - Partially replaced - Fully replaced, if that's genuinely the sensible option We can't promise every third-party system is repairable sight unseen — some equipment is genuinely past its useful life — but we assess before we conclude that. Process ## How a Automatic Gate Service Runs 1 ### Briefing What's happening, and what should be reviewed. 2 ### Site Walk Inspecting the relevant areas of your warehouse. 3 ### Diagnose Equipment, wiring, power and configuration. 4 ### Report & Recommend Written findings — repair, upgrade or replace. 5 ### Approve & Repair Scheduled at a time that suits your operations. 6 ### Handover Report and documentation for your records. Technical Honesty ## Repair, Upgrade or Replace? ### Repair Restore the existing motor, board or sensors where practical — most gate faults are wear, alignment or sensor issues. ### Upgrade Replace the specific motor, board or sensor that has failed or is outdated, while keeping the usable gate structure. ### Replace Recommended where the motor or gate structure is obsolete, damaged beyond practical repair, or undersized for the gate.

Most warehouse sites benefit from servicing every 6 to 12 months, depending on usage and exposure to the elements. Can you service systems installed by another company? In most cases yes — we assess the equipment and its condition first, then confirm what can be serviced or repaired. Do you offer maintenance contracts for warehouses & logistics? Yes. Maintenance contracts are scoped to the number of devices, sites, and required response times — contact us to discuss what a contract would cover. What if the equipment can't be repaired? We tell you plainly and quote for the specific replacement needed, rather than repeated repair attempts on something that genuinely needs replacing. Do you provide a written report after servicing? Yes — every scheduled service visit includes a written record of what was checked, found, and recommended. Can you service both sliding and swing gates? Yes — our technicians service and repair both sliding and swing automatic gate systems. ## Automatic Gate Issue? Let's Sort It. Tell us about your warehouse and the issue.
