FAAC Gate Repair in University Park, TX

FAAC built its name on hydraulics: a motor drives a pump, and fluid pressure moves the ram that swings the leaf. That gives a smooth, strong stroke that suits the heavy wrought iron swing gates and courtyard gates on University Park frontages. It also means the failures are pressure failures. When seals wear, fluid escapes, the level drops, and the gate slows, stops short or cannot hold itself closed. On tight frontages a misaligned safety sensor adds stops of its own, so the symptoms can look like a board fault when two small faults are overlapping.

We check fluid level and condition first, test pressure against FAAC’s figures, then reseal or adjust. The 400 and 402 arms are long lived and age alone is no reason to replace one, and the 455 D board used with the hydraulic swing units is a straightforward swap once it is confirmed faulty. A weeping release valve is a real fault and gets fixed. Replacement makes sense only when the housing or ram is physically damaged. We service FAAC swing gates in Caruth Hills, Windsor Place and along Lovers Lane.
