SOME OF THE MOST COMMON REPAIR ISSUES:
We offer residential and commercial repairs 24/7. If your home or business is facing an access control emergency that requires assistance, our experienced team is prepared to assist. Here are some of the most common repairs for access controls:
THE BATTERIES AND POWER SOURCE:
If your gate doesn’t open when you use your remote or keypad, start by ruling out the simple things first. To determine if your device’s batteries are the problem, try using one of the other controls that opens your gate. If it works, it’s likely that the batteries in your device have lost their charge. However, if a new set of batteries doesn’t get the device working again, then it may be time to replace the remote or keypad. If you don’t have a second control handy, you can usually tell that the batteries in a remote or keypad have lost their charge if the device’s built-in light no longer flashes when you use it. If the batteries aren’t the problem, check to see if the power source for the gate operator has been disrupted. Ensure that it’s plugged into a working outlet and check your breaker box to determine if the circuit breaker for your gate system has been switched off.
TRIPPED SENSORS:
Your gate’s photo-eye sensors send a beam of light from one side of the gate opening to the other. If the photo eyes detect something in the gate’s path, the gate system will no longer open or close (or it will begin opening and closing then reverse direction). Objects such as sticks, rocks, and leaves can sometimes find their way into the path of the gate. Generally, a flashing red light on the photo-eye sensors indicates that an obstruction has been detected. Find out if there’s anything in the path of the gate’s sensors. The two photo eyes could also be misaligned. If the sensors aren’t “seeing” each other, it will cause them to stop working. The sensors can be adjusted and realigned by hand. Another possibility is that the lenses of the photo eyes could be dirty. Wipe them with a cloth if they look smudged.
MALFUNCTIONING SENSORS:
Occasionally, gate sensors can malfunction and will halt gate operation as a result. This will occur if there’s an issue with the wiring. For example, sometimes pests make their home inside the housing of the sensors or rodents chew the wires. If you suspect that the sensors are malfunctioning, visually inspect the electrical components to see if there’s any damage. If something seems off, call in a gate repair technician to resolve the problem. Note that electrical issues will also result in the sensors failing to detect people, pets, vehicles, or anything else that enters the path of the gate.
THE OPERATOR:
If your gate system isn’t responding to your remote control or keypad, the issue could be with the gate operator. To determine if this is the case, take a look at the control board located inside the housing of the operator. The control board will have a diagnostic display that signals any issues with the system. If the display shows an error code, look up its meaning and the corresponding troubleshooting steps in the user’s manual.
