Frequently Asked Questions
Practical answers about gate repair & maintenance for San Diego properties.
Why won't my automatic gate open or close?
Common causes include a tripped safety sensor, an obstruction in the path, a misaligned limit switch, a worn motor, or a track issue. Dirt and debris in the track and weather-worn hardware are frequent culprits in San Diego. We inspect the gate end to end and pinpoint the cause.
My gate is noisy — should I be worried?
Grinding, squeaking, or labored operation usually means a roller, bearing, hinge, or the motor needs service. Left alone, that wear can shorten the motor's life and lead to a more costly failure. A maintenance visit cleans and lubricates moving parts and catches the issue early.
Do you repair gates you didn't install?
Yes. We service and repair gates and operators regardless of who installed them. We start with a full mechanical and electrical inspection, identify what's wrong, and give you a straightforward recommendation before any work.
How often should an automatic gate be serviced?
It depends on how often the gate cycles and its exposure to sun, salt, and dust. A gate in daily use near the coast benefits from more frequent checks than a lightly used inland gate. We can recommend a service interval based on your gate and conditions.
