For any homeowner Electric Gates are a big investment and once installed you will want to ensure they are maintained correctly to ensure they are not only working mechanically but also always looking in pristine condition.
In this blog we will share some simple tasks you can undertake and the importance of regular gate servicing by Entrance Supplies Direct Ltd to ensure all mechanical components are working to the correct safety standards and to eliminate any costly breakdowns.
As a homeowner you can undertake these simple tasks to help maintain your Electric Driveway Gate:
Visual Check – A visual check is a simple task you can undertake to look over your gate, check your electric gate for any signs of wear and tear, loose fixtures and check there is no build-up of dirt and debris building up in the motor.
Noise – Does your electric driveway gate motor sound noisier than usual? Have the electric gates started screeching when opening or closing? Sometimes it can be a simple fix such as lubricating parts such as the hinges and wheels using the lubricant provided by us upon installation however noise coming from your electric gate can indicate a bigger issue so we would suggest contacting us here at Entrance supplies direct Ltd for additional advice.
Simple clean – By giving your electric gates a clean down every so often with our Entrance Supplies Direct Ltd gate cleaner will ensure there is no build up of dirt and debris as even something as small as pests setting up home in your motor box can be enough to cause your gates to malfunction. Ensure photocells are kept clean and any shrubs are cut back so they do not cause the sensor to think something is in the Electric Gates pathway. Our Gate Cleaner is also the perfect addition to keep your gates looking aesthetically pleasing.
