Proper Care of Your Gate

New Gate

Table of Contents

A new gate installation comes with responsibility since it is a heavy system & must be maintained frequently to avoid emergency gate repairs.

Gates are installed to secure the perimeter of your home or business but they must also operate properly in order for you to avoid accidents. Broken swing gate hinges and damaged tracks of sliding gates will forbid the proper operation of the system and might cause injuries to you or valuables.

When pressing the gate remote control button to enter with your car, you expect the gate to full y open with ease. The gates must also close well to ensure full protection of your house and for these reasons maintenance is mandatory.

General gate maintenance service is suggested 1-2 times a year and is the least you can do to safeguard functional systems. Since your gate and its components are exposed to elements at all times, gates would need more frequent inspections and repairs.

Checking the material is also crucial. A wood gate may expand or distort due to weather conditions without good and regular treatments. A steel or wrought iron gate can erode and rust over the years if not painted and cleaned properly. Despite that, you should mainly focus on inspecting the component parts of the mechanism.

SOMETHINGS TO LOOK FOR

Are the sliding gate wheels sitting properly on the tracks? Does the automatic gate opener work without making too much noise (grinding, squeaking, etc)? Is the chain rusty? Are the hinges rusty or look worn? Does the latch no longer latch properly? Are the safety sensors still detecting all objects?

Make sure the sensors work fine by systematically testing them and lubricate the moving parts based on the instructions of your manual or a gate professional. Electric gate repair is necessary to avoid operative problems, which will not only be a hassle (gate getting jammed open, shut or mid-way), falling off-tracks, etc) but they will possibly compromise the safety of your family, home or business.

For the same reasons, you need to take care of the remote control and keypad or intercom system – keeping it clean and changing the batteries often.

We absolutely love our garage door! We’re slowly updating and remodeling our house and this is by far one of the best experiences we’ve had with a vendor! They provided not only the best price, but the team was so professional, nice, easy to work with, accommodating and also funny and enjoyable to work with! We will definitely be using them again for when we replace our gate and I will highly recommend them to anyone who needs a garage door or gate in the future!!

I had the most amazing experience with All Garage Doors and Gates!!! I had an emergency with my garage door where it almost dropped down on my car. A part was loose and the emergency lever was loose. I called them right away and Aidan was at my home within the hour. I can't believe how quickly he was able to help and fix the broken part. He is kind, compassion and a pleasure to be around. I will be calling him right away when I have any other issues going forward. I highly recommend this Garage Door company. Amazing service and super caring people!!!!

Best company to call for help when the garage door is stuck. Eli came out within an hour in the evening time and changed out the broken springs. He also checked out the other parts of the door and the opener to make sure everything was working fine. Gave me tips on caring for the springs in the future. Very honest and great pricing.

The whole experience was great. They arrived came up with a plan to work with my low ceiling Garage door and provided the quote quickly. Once I gave the go ahead the door arrived sooner than expected and installation was great. I would definitely use them again. As a plus, more professional and less expensive than the other quote I got.I will use them agai.

My experience with ALL Garage has been fantastic. Dana was very responsive and easy to work with. She was very understanding with all my changes. I really had a hard time just getting a quote from other companies. I don't understand why some companies would take the trouble to send someone out and not just send a quote. I was super happy with this company. They were happy to clarify things with me about the project and made sure I understood the scope of work. Thank You ALL GARAGE DOORS and GATES!!
