Gate Repair in Fairview, TX

Long driveways and estate gates

A gate at the end of a long drive is often powered by a solar panel or by a long low-voltage wire run from the house. Both work well when they are set up right. Solar gates fail most often in winter, when shorter days and cold batteries leave too little charge for a full cycle. Long wire runs fail where a splice lets water in, which can cause a gate that works on dry days and acts up after rain.

Heavy ornamental gates add another problem. A gate that is heavier than the operator was sized for will work for a while, then start stopping and reversing as the motor and gears wear. If a gate feels stiff when you push it by hand with the operator released, fix the gate first.

Shopping centers and businesses

Along the US 75 frontage, businesses use gates for loading areas, equipment yards and parking. Those gates usually need to work on a schedule, so a failure is a business problem as much as a repair. Tell us how the gate is used and when it has to be working again.

Before you call

Check the breaker for the operator, look at the solar panel for dirt or shade, and see whether the keypad works when the remote does not. Then call (469) 634-3100 with your cross street, such as Stacy Road or Country Club Road.
