Frequently asked questions
How often should electric gates be serviced?
Electric gates should be serviced at least once a year to ensure they remain safe, efficient, and fully compliant with UK safety standards. For gates that are used frequently, such as those at commercial sites or high-traffic entrances, more regular servicing may be recommended.
What are the most common problems with electric gates?
The most common issues include gate motor failure, misalignment, obstructed tracks, faulty power supplies, inadequate regular maintenance, and damage caused by impact or improper installation. These problems can usually be identified and resolved quickly by a professional.
