How Often Should Automatic Gates Be Serviced?

The frequency at which your automatic gates are serviced will depend primarily on how many cycles they perform each day. A “Cycle” is each time a gate opens and then closes. A single ‘cycle’ is the gate opening and then closing. Generally speaking, a school’s automatic gate system will need to be serviced at least twice a year.

We provide schools and colleges with automatic gate servicing & maintenance regardless of who installed the gate and when. However, to ensure that the gate repair and maintenance is carried out as required, we will initially inspect it (the gate), mainly running through a checklist of tests and observations.

Harling also provides preventive automatic gate maintenance services, including lubrication of all mechanical components, which follows a thorough inspection and testing of all related devices. Our inspection is in line with the present guidance provided by the Powered Gate Group of Door and Hardware Federation and the HSE.

The initial electric gate inspection includes:

  • We will check to make sure that the motors operating force is within legal limits.
  • Our team will also check the structural integrity of the gate.
  • An annual risk assessment will be carried out.
  • The service records and O&M manual will be updated each year.
  • We closely examine basic gate safety features like the joints to ensure that they are adequately welded to ensure no unexpected bending or potential fractures
  • We check if the electric gate is appropriately lubricated and, if not, will fill the required lubrication and hydraulic fluid.
  • our experts will also check the underground drainage and box if applicable.
  • We also check the electric gate’s control box is properly sealed preventing insect and water ingress.

Why Is Automatic Gate Maintenance Important for Schools and Colleges?

Gate automation systems are an investment in security. Regular servicing ensures that your gates are safe and comply with the latest legislation, which further reduces your chances of potential issues that could impact or impede the school’s day to day running.

Our maintenance agreements are meant to ensure that your educational institution experiences little to no disruptive downtime while meeting all present safety regulations. Gate systems also require regular maintenance to ensure that they comply with the UK’s Health and Safety Executive (HSE) standards and the gate manufacturer’s listed recommendations to ensure that the motorized gate continues to operate flawlessly.

We Check and Service the Electric Gate Motor

Unfortunately, the electric gate’s motor is overlooked by many because it is assumed that they can last for many years without needing maintenance. The motor in security gates and electric gates is an essential part of the system since it is responsible for opening and closing the gate when needed. Proper maintenance of the motor is key to ongoing reliability of the gate system.

Whether you have swing gates installed or any other, our team makes sure to examine the primary and secondary motors (if they are any). The goal is to determine if they are operating optimally and, if not, then find the issue to fix it. If the motor is found to be losing power because of age, wear or any other issue, we’ll often recommend that it be replaced. Replacing the motor ensures that the gate continues to operate optimally without unexpected failure, which could often require extensive repairs.
