Gate Automation Servicing & Repair

Your gate system is a machine that operates outside and is subject to all the elements that come with being outside. Wind, rain, localised flooding, temperature, movement within the ground, mother natures little critters etc. Just like you have your car serviced and an MOT, your gates will require some aftercare and every install will require different needs.

Most manufactures of all automation equipment will require the system to have the neccessary service record to uphold their warranty and it is during this period that a good gate engineer can guage the frequency of aftercare that your system will need. We are very pro-active within this field and have put together a helpfull list of what we do.

Do I need a Service?

The same question from all of our customers is asked when we hand over a finished installation and that is "how often does it require a service" I would love to say that your system has been designed to become virtually maintenance free, that statement isnt far from the truth if we were to remove any external influence such as the enviorement and mother nature.

Please see our automated gate service checklist below, along with our auxiliary components inspection checklist. These areas are all prone to wear and tear and will require maintenance.
