What we see on FAAC gates in Plano

FAAC hydraulic operators are less common in Plano than chain and DC units, but where they are fitted, often on paired iron swing gates in the older estate streets, owners are frequently told they cannot be repaired. In most cases they can. A FAAC that moves slowly, stops short or will not hold the gate closed usually needs fluid, a seal kit, a pressure adjustment or a release valve service, all of which we carry out on site.

In-ground FAAC units such as the 770 sit in a box beneath the hinge, and in Plano the risk is water. Heavy spring rain on clay soil drains slowly, and a foundation box that floods will damage the operator in time. When we service an in-ground FAAC we clear the box drain and check for water ingress, as well as the operator itself.

FAAC gate repair in Plano: questions

My FAAC swing gate is leaking oil. Does it need a new operator?

Not usually. An oil leak on a FAAC hydraulic arm generally means worn seals, which is a standard repair. We replace the seals, refill and bleed the system, and set the pressure so the gate closes with the right force.

Why does my FAAC gate run slower in winter?

Hydraulic fluid thickens in cold weather, so a FAAC can slow down on the rare cold Plano mornings. If it stays slow in mild weather, low fluid or a pressure fault is more likely, and we can check both.
