Understanding Your Electric Gate System

Electric gates combine mechanical components with electronic controls to provide secure, automated access to properties. The system includes motors, control boards, safety sensors, and various moving parts working together.

The Mechanics of Electric Gates

Electric gates operate through a motor-driven system connected to either sliding or swinging mechanisms. The motor receives signals from control devices like remotes, keypads, or smartphone apps.


Safety sensors detect obstacles and prevent gate movement when objects or people are in the path. These sensors are crucial for preventing accidents and damage.


The control board serves as the system's brain, processing commands and managing all gate operations. It coordinates the motor's movements and monitors safety features.


Key Components:


  • Drive motor and gearbox
  • Control board with circuit protection
  • Safety photocells and edge sensors
  • Battery backup system
  • Access control devices

Common Issues

Gate misalignment can cause irregular movement or complete system failure. We recommend checking the track or hinges for debris and proper lubrication monthly.


Common Problems:



  • Unresponsive remote controls
  • Slow or jerky operation
  • Strange noises during movement
  • Gates not closing fully


Power issues often cause gate malfunctions. Check the circuit breaker and backup battery if the gate stops working suddenly.


Mechanical wear affects performance over time. Regular maintenance of chains, rollers, and hinges prevents most operational problems.


We suggest testing safety sensors monthly by placing an object in the gate's path. The gate should stop and reverse immediately when detecting an obstacle.
