Electric gate not working? We come to you

Whether you call it a driveway gate, an electric gate or an automatic gate, if it won’t open, close or respond to your remote, we fix it at your property. Our technicians diagnose the fault, explain it in plain language and repair it with the parts already in the vehicle.

Common gate motor faults we fix

  • Gate not responding to remotes
  • Motor runs but the gate doesn’t move
  • Gate stops halfway or reverses
  • Gate opening or closing on its own
  • Flat or failing backup battery
  • Damaged PC board or control card
  • Gate off its track or hit by a vehicle
  • Safety beams and sensor faults

Repairs by brand and gate type

Centurion makes most of the gate motors in South Africa, so it’s what we know best and the parts we carry most. We still repair older Hansa units too.

Gate stuck right now?

We offer 24/7 emergency call-outs for gates stuck open, stuck closed or damaged. See emergency gate motor repairs for what to do while you wait.

PC board and control card repairs

Lightning, power surges and ants nesting in the motor housing are common causes of dead gate motors. We repair Centurion PC boards and control cards, which is often far cheaper than a new motor. More on our Centurion repairs page.

Battery and load-shedding faults

If your gate slows down or stops when the power goes off, the backup battery is usually the culprit. We test and replace it on the spot. See gate motor batteries & backup.

How a repair works

  1. Call or WhatsApp us with your suburb and what the gate is doing. A photo of the motor helps.
  2. We confirm when a technician can be with you.
  3. We diagnose the motor and the gate on site and explain the fault.
  4. We repair it with the parts on board, in most cases in the same visit.
  5. We test everything, show you the manual release and confirm the guarantee on our work.

Frequently asked questions

Do you repair gate motors on site?

Yes. We carry Centurion parts, batteries and tools on our vehicles, so most gate motor repairs are finished at your property in one visit.

Do you offer 24/7 emergency gate motor repairs?

Yes. If your gate is stuck open, won’t open or won’t close, call 076 858 8087 day or night and we’ll get a technician to you as soon as we can.

Which gate motor brands do you repair?

We specialise in Centurion, which covers most gate motors in South Africa, and we still repair older Hansa units. We repair PC boards and control cards too.

Is it the gate motor or the gate itself?

Often it’s the gate: worn wheels, a bent rack or a gate off its track can make a healthy motor stall. We check both and tell you exactly what’s wrong before we fix anything.
