Automatic gate operators are limited in their capacity to act on their own. In fact, for an automatic gate opener to successfully function, no less than five different gate control devices are required. To properly run an automated gate system, you will need devices such as automatic gate keypads, magnetic group loops and wands, card readers, contact edges, photoelectric through beams.

Fortunately, American Access Company’s staff are knowledgeable about gate operator technology, both old and new.

Gate Operator Repair

Two decades ago, a gate operator was a very simple, easy-to-understand piece of equipment to which repairs were made easily. But today, automatic gate operators are far more complex, bearing a closer resemblance to a personal computer than something which looks like it could open a gate. So you might think that makes them more difficult to repair.

To properly repair modern gate operators requires factory training and technicians who not only understand the mechanics involved but are also knowledgeable about the electronics. The staff here at American Access Company has that training and expertise, learning personally from our manufacturers about the latest equipment as it comes out every year. Automatic gate repair is among the most essential services offered here, and we take pride in that our professionals know their electric gate systems forward and backward, able to repair even the oldest, most obscure electronic gate system.
