What we see on FAAC gates in Richardson
Much of the residential gate equipment in Richardson dates from the 1990s and early 2000s, and a FAAC hydraulic arm of that age is a good example of a unit that is often written off too soon. The mechanical side of these operators was built for a long life. What ages are the seals, the fluid and the board, and the symptoms are slow travel, stopping short, or a gate that will not stay closed against wind.
We test fluid level and seals, the release valve and pump pressure, then the encoder or limits and the 455 D board on hydraulic swing units. A seal kit and a pressure reset return many older FAAC 400 and 402 arms to normal service. Replacement is for a damaged ram or housing, or a board that truly cannot be sourced. That is how we approach FAAC gate repair in Canyon Creek or Prairie Creek.

FAAC gate repair in Richardson: questions
My FAAC in Richardson is over twenty years old. Is it still worth fixing?
Often it is. The hydraulic ram and pump on a FAAC are built to be serviced, and many older units run well after new seals, fluid and a pressure adjustment. The question is the condition of the ram and housing and whether the board is available. We check both and give you a straight answer.
Why does my FAAC gate drift open after closing?
A hydraulic gate that will not hold its closed position usually has an internal seal or release valve that is letting fluid bypass, so pressure bleeds off. It is a repairable fault. We test pressure, inspect the valve and seals, rebuild as needed, and confirm the gate holds closed afterwards.
