Regular gate inspections are important to ensure safety and functionality. Gates should be inspected regularly for signs of wear or damage, and should be maintained by a qualified professional.

Next up, we bring you some essential tips for maintaining your electric gates! These recommended practices will help ensure optimal performance and extend the lifespan of your system.


  1. Regular Visual Inspection: Perform visual inspections at least once a month. Look for signs of wear, damage, loose cables, or corrosion on moving parts, hinges, rails, and electrical components.

  2. Lubrication: Apply lubricant to hinges, rails, and other moving parts following the manufacturer's instructions. This reduces friction and helps maintain smooth operation.

  3. Safety Sensors: Verify that safety sensors are clean and properly aligned. Sensors are crucial for stopping the gate in case of detecting obstacles and preventing accidents.

  4. Backup Battery: If your gate has a backup battery, regularly check its charge. Replace it if necessary to ensure the gate functions during power outages.

  5. Remote Control: Replace remote control batteries as needed and periodically test its functionality. This ensures that you can operate the gate remotely without issues.

  6. Wiring Inspection: Inspect the electrical wiring for damage, cuts, or loose connections. Ensure that the wiring is protected from weather elements and in good condition.

  7. Software Updates: If your system uses software for gate control, check for available updates and follow the manufacturer's instructions to apply them.

  8. Paint Maintenance: If the gate is painted, check the condition of the paint and touch it up if needed to prevent corrosion.

  9. Functionality Tests: Conduct regular tests of gate opening and closing using both the remote control and wall switches. Ensure that the movement is smooth and without issues.

  10. Professional Maintenance: If you encounter problems you can't resolve on your own or if the gate has persistent issues, consider hiring a specialized professional in electric gate systems for a more detailed inspection.

  11. User Manual: Keep the user manual for your electric gate handy. It can provide valuable information about its operation and specific maintenance requirements.

  12. Maintenance Record: Maintain a record of inspections and maintenance performed. This will help you track and identify patterns of issues over time.


Always remember to follow the manufacturer's specific guidelines and recommendations for maintaining your electric gate system. These tips will assist you in keeping the system in good condition and ensuring its proper functioning over time.
