Most gate faults do not happen out of nowhere. A worn photocell, a loose bracket, or a motor working harder than it should will usually show a sign before it fails completely. A yearly service catches these early, so you are far less likely to end up stuck with a gate that will not open on a Sunday evening. We service gates across Stanmore, Edgware, Harrow and the surrounding areas, whether it is a one off check or a yearly plan.

Common questions
How often should an electric gate be serviced
Once a year is usually enough for most residential gates. Gates used heavily, such as on shared drives or commercial sites, may benefit from checking twice a year.
Will a service stop my gate breaking down completely
It cannot guarantee it, since parts do wear out, but it catches most faults early, before they turn into an emergency callout.
Can you service a gate you did not install
Yes. We service and repair gates regardless of who originally fitted them.
Do you offer a yearly service plan
Yes, we can set up a yearly plan so your gate gets checked automatically without you needing to remember to book it in.
What happens if you find a fault during a service
We will explain what it is, what it means if left, and give you a price to fix it. The choice is always yours, there is no pressure to say yes on the spot.
