What we see on FAAC gates in Coppell

Coppell’s housing went up largely between 1985 and 2000, so a FAAC hydraulic arm fitted with the house has been through decades of North Texas summers. Hydraulics age in a particular way: seals harden and weep, fluid drops, and the ram loses force. The gate slows, stalls before the latch, or will not hold closed in wind. Many owners are told that means a new operator. It rarely does.

We check fluid level and condition, test pressure against FAAC figures, then reseal and refill. The 455 D board on older hydraulic installs is a known failure point and is replaced once confirmed. The keyed release valve wears too, and a weeping one is a real fault. On wrought iron swing gates in The Lakes of Coppell or Northlake Woodlands, the hinge post gets checked as well, since clay movement adds load the ram has to overcome.

FAAC gate repair in Coppell: questions

My FAAC has been on our Coppell gate since the nineties. Is it too old to repair?

Age alone is not a reason to replace one. The 400 and 402 series are long-lived and designed to be serviced: seals, fluid, pressure settings and boards are all replaceable. Replacement makes sense when the housing or ram is physically damaged. Ask what was tested before accepting that a FAAC cannot be fixed.

How often should a FAAC hydraulic operator be serviced?

Fluid and seals are service items. On a home gate, checking fluid condition and pressure every couple of years catches slow seal wear before it becomes a gate that will not finish its travel. It is the cheapest way to keep a FAAC running for decades, and the visit includes the release valve and the board.
