Frequently Asked Questions
Which gate motor brands do you work on?
We install, repair and service all major brands available in South Africa, and we'll recommend the right motor for your gate's weight and usage.
Why does my gate stop working during load shedding?
Gate motor batteries typically last 2–3 years. Frequent load shedding cycles wear them out faster, a battery replacement usually solves it.
Can you fix a gate that's come off its track?
Yes, we repair tracks, wheels and rails, and realign the gate so the motor isn't strained.
How long does a gate motor installation take?
Most standard installations are completed within a few hours, the same day.
Do you service gate motors preventatively?
Yes, an annual service (battery check, lubrication, limit adjustment, beam alignment) prevents the most common failures.

"Best decision was replacing the whole thing rather than patching the old motor again. Works perfectly and the intercom is a great addition. Neat installation."
