Swing-arm and slide-gate operators — boards, limits, sensors, loops and remotes, tested at component level.
The gate operator is the motor, gearbox and control board that drives the gate — and it is the part most people blame first. Sometimes that is right: control boards and capacitors fail, limit settings drift and receivers stop listening to remotes. Just as often the operator is straining against a gate that has become too heavy to move, or it is obeying a safety device that is reporting a false obstruction.
We work on LiftMaster, DoorKing, FAAC and Nice operators, among others. We test the operator on its own and with the gate, read its error codes where it has them, and repair at component level — a board, a capacitor, a limit switch or a receiver — before ever talking about replacing the whole unit.
Surges from nearby lightning and grid flickers are hard on control boards and start capacitors.
Drifted travel limits or force settings make the operator stop short or reverse.
Receivers, keypads and intercom relays that no longer pass the open command to the operator.
Worn wheels, hinges or a dragging leaf that overload the gearbox and trip the operator.
South Florida is hard on gates. Summer lightning and grid flickers are the most common reason a gate operator board fails, salt air near the coast works on wheels, hinges, racks and chains, and daily summer storms soak photo-eyes, loops and control boxes. Before a hurricane, every gate owner should know how to use the manual release — we show you during the visit.
We release it and check the gate moves freely, so we fix the right thing.
Power, board, capacitor, limits, receiver and safety inputs tested in turn.
Boards, capacitors, receivers and sensors that suit the operator you have.
Limits and force set, remotes and keypad codes programmed, full cycles run.
