Common Issues We Resolve
When an entry system fails, it leaves your property vulnerable or locks you out completely. Here are the five most frequent issues our technicians quickly diagnose and fix:
Gate Refuses to Open or Close
This complete breakdown is typically triggered by dead backup batteries, tripped electrical breakers, or fried control boards within the automated system.
Misaligned or Sagging Frames
Due to shifting ground or heavy usage, swing gates can sag over time, causing them to drag along the driveway or miss the locking catch post entirely.
Sensor and Safety Loop Failures
When photo-eyes or underground vehicle loops fail, the gate may dangerously reverse unexpectedly or refuse to acknowledge your vehicle at the entrance.
Grinding, Screeching, or Squeaking Noises
Loud mechanical sounds are urgent warning signs of completely dry hinges, worn-out rollers, or rusted chain mechanisms that require immediate maintenance.
