Repairs & servicing

Gate and gate motor repairs in Auckland

Gate stopped halfway, remotes not working, or the gate drags on the drive? We fix gate motors, wiring and the gate itself, so you don't need one company for the motor and another for the steelwork.

Repairs & servicing

What we fix

Motors & control boards

Gates that won't open, stop halfway or run the wrong way. Centurion is what we install and know best.

Remotes & keypads

New Centurion remotes coded in, keypads replaced and codes changed.

Safety beams & sensors

Misaligned or faulty beams that stop the gate closing.

Sagging & dragging gates

Worn hinges, rollers and tracks replaced, posts re-set and gates re-hung.

Power & wiring faults

Tripping circuits, damaged cables and corroded connections found and fixed.

Automating old gates

Add a motor to the gate you already have, if it's in good enough shape.

Electrical and mechanical in one visit

A gate that won't move can be a motor fault, a wiring fault or a mechanical problem with the gate. Because we're electricians and gate builders, we can find and fix any of those on the same visit.

Before you call

If your gate opens but won't close, check that nothing is between the safety beams and that the lenses are clean. Make sure the manual release lever is fully locked. If it still won't work, give us a call.

How it works

From drawing to driveway

  1. 01

    Measure up

    We look at the opening, slope, ground and power supply, and talk through what you want.

  2. 02

    Draw it to scale

    For custom work you get a plan and elevation with real dimensions, so there are no surprises on install day.

  3. 03

    Build and finish

    Gates, fences and letterboxes are fabricated and finished in the colour you pick.

  4. 04

    Install and power up

    We set posts and footings, hang the gate, wire the motor and show you how everything works.

FAQ

Repairs & servicing: common questions

Do you repair all gate motor brands?

Centurion is the brand we install and know best. For other brands, tell us the make and model when you get in touch and we'll let you know.

My gate opens but won't close. Why?

The most common cause is a blocked or misaligned safety beam. Check nothing is in the way and the lenses are clean. If it still won't close, call us.

Is it worth repairing, or should I replace it?

If the gate is solid and the motor is a common model, repair is usually the better value. If both are worn out, we'll give you prices for both so you can decide.

Do you service gates?

Yes. A service covers the motor, safety beams, hinges or rollers and the track, and catches problems before they leave you stuck.
