How to Perform a Manual Test on Your Driveway Gate

If you try inspecting your gate for clear signs of damage but nothing pans out, you can try a manual test to rule out certain reasons as to why your gate may not be functioning:

• Turn off power to gate and detach the gate arm (if you have a swing gate remove the chain)
• Move the gate by hand (if it is smooth the issue is likely not the gate and you can take back all the bad names you called it)
• Check inside the track for objects or debris
• Check for bent track
• Check the power source

. If you discover a mechanical issue, then you need to determine whether or not you have enough training to fix the problem on your own.  You can even call Everest Garage Doors and Gates, explain the symptoms, and if you feel capable we can try walking you through some steps to make minor repairs. However, doing any work to an electric gate on your own can backfire. As a consumer you should be made aware that, depending on the gate opener’s manufacturer, any mechanical tinkering by someone who isn’t a certified pro may void the warranty. In addition, if you make a wrong move you can cause further damage requiring costlier repairs. Finally, your fingers will be working with live electrical wires and components. This is why Everest offers the most competitive prices in Los Angeles with a fast response time—we know you want your gate fixed right away in a manner that is safe, cost-efficient, and left in like-new condition ready to make thousands of cycles with no further hiccups. Our friendly, knowledgeable gate repair LA team is standing by ready to take your call, and primed to restore a smile right back onto your face by offering you a class of service that makes us the number one driveway gate company in Los Angeles!
