Common Driveway Gate Repair Issues
1. Gate Motor Repairs
The gate motor is the powerhouse behind your automatic driveway gate. Over time, motors can develop issues due to wear and tear, weather exposure, or electrical malfunctions.
Common Gate Motor Problems:
- Gate won’t open or close due to a faulty motor.
- Unresponsive remote or keypad caused by a motor communication failure.
- Intermittent operation or slow movement due to motor strain.
- Weather-related damage affecting motor performance.
Our technicians diagnose motor issues quickly and provide repairs or replacements to get your gate moving again.
2. Control Box & Circuit Board Repairs
The control box acts as the brain of your driveway gate system, managing commands from remote controls, keypads, and intercoms. Electrical failures in the control board can cause your gate to malfunction.
Signs Your Control Box Needs Repair:
- Gate opens or closes randomly without command.
- No response from remotes or keypads.
- Error messages on digital keypads or access panels.
- Wiring issues or short circuits due to moisture damage.
We troubleshoot and repair faulty control boxes to restore smooth operation and prevent further electrical damage.
3. Structural & Alignment Repairs
Physical damage to your driveway gate can lead to misalignment, restricted movement, or complete failure. This can be caused by vehicle impact, extreme weather, or general wear and tear.
Common Structural Issues:
- Bent or misaligned gate frames preventing proper closure.
- Damaged hinges or rollers affecting movement.
- Sagging swing gates that scrape the ground.
- Rust and corrosion weakening metal gate structures.
We offer professional structural repairs to reinforce and realign your driveway gate, ensuring it operates as smoothly as the day it was installed.
4. Sensor & Safety Feature Malfunctions
Modern driveway gates include safety sensors and auto-reverse mechanisms to prevent accidents and unauthorized entry. When these systems fail, they can cause erratic behavior, security vulnerabilities, or safety hazards.
Common Sensor & Safety Issues:
- Gate won’t close due to obstructed or dirty safety sensors.
- Gate reverses unexpectedly when closing.
- Unreliable auto-stop function, leading to potential accidents.
We inspect, clean, and replace faulty sensors to keep your driveway gate’s safety mechanisms working correctly.
5. Remote Control & Keypad Repairs
If your remote control, keypad, or intercom system stops working, it can leave you locked out of your own property or unable to grant access to visitors.
Common Access Control Issues:
- Broken or unresponsive remote control units.
- Keypad buttons not registering codes.
- Gate not responding to intercom commands.
- Dead batteries or interference affecting signal transmission.
We offer quick replacements, reprogramming, and battery swaps to restore your remote and keypad functionality.
