Quick answer

What does gate maintenance include?

Automatic gate maintenance is a scheduled inspection and tune-up of the gate and its opener: checking the operator, limits and force, testing photo eyes, edges and auto-reverse, load-testing backup batteries, lubricating hinges and rollers, cleaning tracks and checking remotes and access devices. It catches wear early, keeps the gate safe under UL 325 and extends the life of the opener. Eagle Automatic Gate & Door offers one-time tune-ups and scheduled plans for homes, HOAs and businesses.

Tune-up

When was your gate last serviced?

If you can’t remember, it’s due. Book a tune-up and get a written report on your gate’s condition.

How often

Service by how hard the gate works.

A home gate usually needs a yearly visit; busy HOA and commercial gates about every six months. We set the schedule by your gate’s traffic.

Worn out?

When maintenance isn’t enough.

If the opener is old and keeps failing, our tune-up report will say so and price a replacement.

I recently had an automatic gate opener installed by Eagle Automatic Gate & Door, and I’m very pleased with the whole experience. Out of the four companies I got quotes from, theirs was the most reasonable, by far. But what really made the difference was Richard. Straight shooter, no games.

We absolutely love our custom fabricated gates! We couldn’t find anything that fit the sizes and quality we were looking for. We spent hours online and didn’t want to risk the quality on an overseas gate. Matt and the team did an amazing job.

This company did an amazing job installing our new automatic iron driveway gate. Richard, our tech, was professional, friendly, and made everything so easy. They installed the gate, keypad, and solar system all in one day, and everything works great.

I needed someone to come out the same day to fix a gate issue caused by a tenant, and this company responded immediately! They sent someone out the same day, Sam fixed the sensor. He was on time, communicated very well throughout the process, and got everything working quickly. I highly recommend them.

Between visits

What can I do myself between service visits?

A few things help a lot. Keep the photo eyes clean and the gate’s path clear, sweep debris out of a sliding gate’s track, and keep plants and sprinklers off the operator. Watch for changes: a gate that slows down, gets noisy or reverses for no reason is telling you something. Test the manual release once a year so you know how. Leave adjustments and wiring to us. Call our specialist if anything changes.
