Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about maintenance frequency, safety and costs

Short, practical answers to help you decide on scheduled servicing or a maintenance contract.

Small faults often lead to motor overload or broken hinges. Emergency repairs can cost £300–£1,500 and block driveways. Regular servicing catches issues early and reduces the chance of expensive callouts.

Delayed sensor checks increase collision risk and may invalidate safety certification. That raises liability and can result in higher repair or replacement costs if collisions occur.

Planning may be needed for gates affecting listed façades or highway visibility in town-core locations. Check Rochford District Council guidance; installers can note local constraints during the site visit.

A visit covers motor and gearbox inspection, lubrication, safety sensor testing, limit and manual-release checks, control-board diagnostics and a written report with recommendations.

No. Work is completed by independent local Electric Gate Installations in and around Rayleigh. We review your request and arrange for a suitable installer to contact you.

Annual servicing is the baseline; quarterly visits suit high-use or exposed gates. Contracts can be tailored for frequency, scope and priority response.
