Gate technician repairing an electric gate operator and control board

Gate Repair

Fast, reliable automatic gate repair

A gate that won't open is a security problem and a daily headache. We diagnose and repair operators, control boards, motors, and safety systems for homes and businesses across the Peninsula and Silicon Valley.

Overview

Gate down? We'll get it moving again

We repair every part of an automatic gate system — from the operator and control board to the sensors, hardware, and the gate itself.

Because we install gates every day, our technicians know these systems inside and out. We carry common parts, diagnose at the board level, and fix the root cause instead of masking symptoms. That means fewer repeat visits and a gate you can rely on.

24/7 emergency service — same-day repair responseWhether it's a jammed residential driveway gate or a commercial entrance blocking tenant access, call us and we'll prioritize getting you back up and running.

Common Problems

Gate issues we fix every day

If your gate is doing any of these, we can help — usually the same week.

Gate Won't Open or Close

Dead operators, blown boards, tripped safety sensors, or power issues — we diagnose the real cause fast.

Control Board Failure

Power surges and age take out control boards. We repair or replace boards on all major operator brands.

Motor & Gearbox Issues

Grinding, stalling, or a gate that moves slowly usually points to the motor, gearbox, or drive train.

Off-Track & Bent Gates

Sliding gates jump their track after impact or worn rollers. We realign, replace rollers, and true the gate.

Safety Sensor Faults

Misaligned or failed photo eyes make a gate reverse or refuse to move. We restore UL 325 safety operation.

Intermittent & Slow Operation

Hinges, limit switches, capacitors, and worn hardware cause erratic behavior. We find and fix it.

Our Expertise

Repairs done right the first time

Anyone can swap a part. Diagnosing why a gate failed — and preventing it from happening again — takes experience. We test systematically and explain what we find in plain language.
