What we see on All-O-Matic gates in Plano
Plano has plenty of gates installed in the 1990s and early 2000s by contractors who are no longer around, and All-O-Matic was a sensible choice then because the operators are simple and tough. That simplicity is useful to an owner now. When an SL-150 or SW-350 starts stalling mid-travel, the gearbox clutch is often slipping rather than the motor failing. A limit nut that has moved explains a gate stopping short, and an electronic reversing device set too sensitive for the gate makes it bounce back for no visible reason.
Very few All-O-Matic faults justify a whole new operator. The usual work is a clutch or torque limiter adjustment, a limit reset, a new chain and sprocket, or a control board relay. On a slide gate near Preston Road or a swing gate in Whiffletree, we also look at the photo-eyes, since misalignment is one of the faults Plano gates show most. If the operator really is finished, the SL-100 and SW-300 are still current models.

Gary’s operator was two decades old but the real faults were the wheels and chain. He upgraded anyway — for the battery backup and the warranty, not because we condemned it.

All-O-Matic gate repair in Plano: questions
My All-O-Matic swing gate in Plano stalls on windy days. Why?
On the SW-300 the torque limiter, and on the SW-350 the gearbox clutch, let the arm slip when resistance gets too high. A leaf catching wind adds resistance, and a clutch that has worn or been set loose gives up first. We adjust or service the clutch, check the hinges for drag, and set the reversing sensitivity to suit the gate.
Should I replace an old All-O-Matic with a different brand?
Only if there is a reason beyond its age. All-O-Matic operators are mechanically straightforward and the common parts are stocked, so a repair is usually cheaper and the unit has years left in it. Replacement becomes worth discussing when the gearbox is worn out, or when you want battery backup the existing AC model cannot provide.
