Automatic Gate Operator Installation
Modern gate operators are limited in their ability to function on their own. You will require no less than five different gate entry control devices for your automatic gate system. A combination of the following products is needed for a complete automated gate system:
- Photoelectric through beams
- Contact edges
- Proximity readers
- Ground loops and wands
- Keypads
- Photoeyes
- Card readers
Automatic Gate Operator Repair
Twenty years ago, a gate opener was nothing more than an electric motor, gear reducer, a brake, a couple contacts and ice cube relays. Repairs were simple with so few moving parts. Today’s gate operators are sophisticated pieces of machinery with multiple circuit boards, plug-in and standalone components, and integrated gate safety devices. Open one up and it will resemble a personal computer.
When you get your automated gate installed, you want it to last a lifetime. In order to get true longevity out of your automated gate, you must perform regular maintenance. To ensure your automatic gate lasts, you can take a few steps to keep it maintained through daily use and environmental conditions.
- Clean your gate chain frequently.
- Tension and grease your gate chain regularly.
- Inspect and adjust all moving components as needed.

Replacing a worn-out gate operator involves more than just swapping-out the unit. It involves upgrading the gate system and gate safety devices to integrate with the new gate opener. Today’s gate operators require integrated safety devices be in-play before beginning operation.
