Much like the materials of the gates themselves, the mechanisms of automated gates require a level of maintenance to ensure longevity. As a general rule, how often the gate is used will affect how often it should be maintained – with infrequent usage requiring an average once-a-year check-up, and more frequent usage requiring twice or more a year. As well as longevity, it is important to maintain your automation system for safety reasons. We provide comprehensive maintenance visits to ensure your mechanism is in full working order. If it is kept in good condition, an automated gate system can last up to 20 years.
