Residential Gate Repair in Plano: what we see

Most residential gate calls in Plano come from the established neighborhoods with larger lots, such as Kings Ridge, Deerfield and Whiffletree, where gates were added during the original build or a later renovation. Common faults are worn hinges, failing batteries, sun-damaged keypads and photo-eyes knocked out of alignment. Many of these are small repairs, and we would rather do the small repair than sell a new system.

Safety matters on a family property. Every automatic gate should reverse or stop when it meets an obstruction, and older Plano gates were sometimes installed before current entrapment protection was standard. When we repair a residential gate we test the reversal and the sensors, and if the gate lacks protection a child or pet could need, we point it out and explain the options.

Residential Gate Repair in Plano: questions

How do I know if my home gate is safe for children and pets?

Put an object in the gate path and run it: it should stop and reverse on contact or before it reaches the object. If it does not, stop using it automatically until it is checked. We test this on every residential visit.

Do you repair pedestrian and side gates at Plano homes?

Yes, including self-closing hinges, latches and electric locks on pedestrian gates, and the keypads or intercoms that control them.
