Gate and barrier maintenance
Automatic gate maintenance for commercial sites across the UK: general automatic gate servicing, planned maintenance and 24/7 call-out for swing, sliding and cantilever gates. Whoever installed them.
Gate Safe aware installer. SSAIB certified.
Why it matters
An automatic gate moves several hundred kilograms on a schedule set by your site. Without regular servicing, forces drift, safety devices fail quietly and the first warning is a breakdown at the entrance, or worse, an injury.
Planned maintenance keeps the system safe to use, keeps your site accessible and gives you service records that show your insurer, your health and safety advisor and the HSE it is being kept safe.
What a visit covers
Our engineers work through the whole system, not just the motor, and leave you with a written report of what was tested, what was found and what was done.
Safety edges, photocells and loop detectors tested, checked and realigned so the gate stops and reverses when it should.
Motors, gearboxes, hydraulic rams and arm mechanisms inspected, lubricated and adjusted, with wear parts flagged before they fail.
Hinges, tracks, rollers, end stops and posts checked for alignment, wear and corrosion so the leaf runs true and the operator is not fighting it.
Control panels, intercoms, keypads, fob readers, ANPR cameras and timers tested, with firmware and settings checked against how the site uses the gate.
Manual release, battery back-up and fire alarm interface tested so the gate opens when it must and can be freed by hand in a power cut.
Warning signs and markings checked, then a full service report issued for your compliance file.
What we maintain
We take over systems from other installers and work across the leading operator manufacturers, so one contract can cover every entrance on your estate.
Single and double leaf, with ram and articulated arm operators.
Tracked and trackless gates on rack and pinion drives.

Control boards, safety devices, intercoms, keypads, fob readers and ANPR.
Taking over and call-out
Whoever fitted your gates, we can take them on, and one freephone number covers faults at any hour.
The first visit is a full survey and safety test of the existing installation. If anything falls short of current standards we tell you plainly, quote for putting it right, and take the system onto a maintenance contract from there.
Call 0800 043 6728 at any hour. Out-of-hours attendance is available for gate and barrier faults.

Questions

Automatic Gate InstallationIt depends on how hard the gate works. High-cycle sites such as logistics yards need more frequent visits than a gate that opens a few times a day. We set the visit schedule from your risk assessment, cycle count and the manufacturer’s guidance, and write it into the contract.
Yes. The first visit is a full survey and safety test of the existing installation. If anything falls short of current standards we tell you plainly, quote for putting it right, and take the system onto a maintenance contract from there.

Yes. Intercoms, keypads, fob and card readers, ANPR cameras and timers are part of the gate system and are tested on every visit.
Yes, on commercial premises. HSE guidance says owners and occupiers of commercial premises have duties under the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992, including keeping it maintained, and anyone who works on it must be competent and leave it safe. There is no fixed interval in law, and service records help show it is being kept safe.
