OUR APPROACH

Repair First, Replace Later!

Our ‘Repair First, Replace Later’ approach provides you with peace of mind by avoiding immediate replacements. With our £150 call-out fee, we will make sure to first repair your existing manual or automatic gate problems.

The expertise that our gate engineers bring to you is the ability to repair most gate problems within just sixty minutes.

Some gate motor problems may require repairs taking longer than an hour, but it will still be cheaper than getting a replacement. The cost is £60 for every hour on top of the initial time.

In rare circumstances, we may recommend replacement. These situations include issues arising from an outdated automation system, a critical system malfunction, or extensive damage that would incur higher costs for repairs.

Our friendly team will keep you informed beforehand, so you won’t worry anymore about dealing with your faulty gate motor.

Eliminate pests and debris from the motor's enclosure.

Did you know that a slug could damage the control board? Your gate motor’s housing is a warm, dry refuge for these crawling pests. If that’s not enough, spiders, ants, and various other pests consider it a safe place, too.

Their protection comes at your expense. Your gate motor is prone to stop working, which may be caused by problems like chewed wires, blown fuses, or mechanical obstructions, among other things.

At Gate Fixers, our expert actions will help restore the pristine condition of the gate motor’s housing components by purging debris and evicting the pests.

You’ll have peace of mind until your next scheduled maintenance, thanks to our reliable gate motor repair services.

Silence the Noise Before It Becomes a Costly Failure.

A squeak, a grind, or a buzz is an unusual sound coming from your electric gate. Though not entirely from the gate motor, the sound happens when the motor opens or closes the gate.

These noises aren’t just a small problem; it’s the clearest sign that one of the mechanical part is malfunctioning in your automated system.

Waiting for the sound to go away by itself means that a simple adjustment could turn into a mandatory, expensive replacement.

Here are some common noises & our service cost

Please note: Prices shown are only an estimate. Final cost is subject to survey. 

Squeaking Sound

If you’re hearing the above sound then its probably dry hinges, rollers and chains. Full inspection and lubrication is all it takes to silence this sound.

Our estimated cost:

Includes the call-out fee, gate motor inspection, and up to 60 minutes work.

£ 60
Grinding Sound

If you hear grinding, the issue is probably worn gears or debris inside the motor housing panel. Gear cleaning/replacement may be needed depending on wear.

Covers call-out fees, gate motor inspection, and 2 hours of work. Usually done in an hour, but could take longer to replace worn parts and clear out debris.
£150 - £ 160
Clunking/Banging Sound

Loose bolts, misaligned arms, or gate hitting stops is why you’re hearing this sound. Ignoring this issue could lead to structural damages.
