It’s always a good idea to take care of your electric gates & gate openers before they stop working completely. If you notice any of the following problems with your automatic gate, it’s most likely a good time to have your gate serviced:
The driveway gate is making a grinding or squeaking noise. The chain is real loose (if it’s touching the ground, then service has been due for a long time…
When the electric gate opens or closes, it’s slamming against the post. The gate is moving slower then it used to
In any case, it’s recommended that you have your driveway gate serviced at least once a year just like you would you vehicle for preventative maintenance.There are several reasons why your automatic driveway gate could need repair…
First, your gate opener needs power to run. You need to make sure that the gate’s electrical breaker is turned on. If you don’t have a dedicated breaker for the gate or you don’t know where it is, look for signs that your gate opener has power. You should hear a clicking noise coming from the opener when you press your remote. If you established that the gate opener has power, the next step is to make sure nothing is physically interfering with the gate’s movement…it could be as simple as somthing getting stuck in the track, such as a stone, a piece of trash caught in the gears, etc. If this is the case, your motor might just need to be reset. It’s usually a minor repair, and sometimes just turning the power off and on does the trick.
