Serving Dubai (UAE). Fast swing gate motor repair for gates not opening, noisy arms, remote/sensor issues. Call/WhatsApp: +971 50 234 2367.

Common Swing Gate Motor Problems We Fix

  • Swing gate not opening / not closing
  • One leaf opens, the other doesn’t (double-leaf issue)
  • Gate stops halfway or reverses
  • Motor/arm running but gate doesn’t move properly
  • Remote not working / weak range
  • Photocell/sensor keeps blocking (false obstruction)
  • Gate hits hard at end (limit/stop setting issue)
  • Gate moving slowly or struggling (hinge/alignment resistance)
  • Loud noise / clicking / grinding from arm or gearbox
  • Control board fault (no power / fuse trips / random operation)
  • Gate sagging or dragging (hinge problem causing overload)

What We Check Before Replacing Parts

  1. Power and breaker check (stable voltage)

2. Safety inputs test (photocells / safety edge if installed)

3. Control board inspection (fuses, terminals, burn marks, loose wiring)

4. Remote + receiver test (programming and range)

5. Arm/motor condition check (sound, movement, overheating signs)

6. Arm/motor condition check (sound, movement, overheating signs)

6. Hinge and alignment load test (gate should move smoothly by hand)

7. Stop points, limits, and force calibration (to prevent hard impact)

8 Final test cycles + safety confirmation

Why Swing Gates Fail in Dubai Villas (Heat + Alignment)

Swing systems fail a lot because of:

  • Heat: electronics and capacitors weaken → random stopping/slow movement
  • Dust: photocells and safety devices misread → false blocks
  • Gate alignment: hinges drop over time → motor struggles and trips on force
  • Wind load: big villa gates catch wind → wrong force settings cause reversals

Hinge, Alignment & Mechanical Issues That Damage Swing Gate Motors

Many swing gate “motor faults” are caused by hinge sag, misalignment, or gate leaf resistance. If the gate is heavy or dragging, it overloads the arm/motor and can burn the control board.

We check and fix:

  • Hinge sag, worn hinges, and gate leaf alignment
  • Gate dragging on the floor or rubbing against posts
  • Arm geometry (mounting points not correct for the gate length)
  • Stopper position (prevents hard impact at end)
  • Loose brackets, base plate movement, or weak welding points
  • Smooth manual movement test (gate should move freely)
  • Force settings and sensitivity (safe but strong)

Repair vs Replace (Honest)

Repair is usually enough when:

  • Photocells/receiver/remote programming issues
  • Limits/force settings are wrong
  • Gate is heavy due to hinge/alignment (mechanical correction)
  • Control board is repairable and parts available

Replacement is smarter when:

  • Motor/gearbox worn or arm is damaged
  • Water damage or severe corrosion inside panel
  • Wrong motor size for gate weight/length, repeated breakdowns

Quick Self-Check Before We Arrive (Optional)

  • Clean photocell lenses and make sure nothing blocks them
  • Try remote from close range (1–2 meters)
  • If one leaf is dragging on the floor, stop using it—alignment may be the cause
  • Don’t keep pressing the remote if it’s stuck (can damage board/motor)

FAQs

Why does my swing gate stop halfway and reverse?

Usually photocell/safety input, hinge resistance, force settings, or stop/limit calibration.

One gate leaf opens but the other doesn’t — what’s the cause?

Common causes: wiring issue, arm/motor fault, capacitor/board output issue, or gate leaf resistance/hinge sag.

Do you repair the control board or replace it?

We diagnose first. If repair is reliable and safe, we do it; otherwise replacement is recommended.

Do you handle remote programming and receiver problems?

Yes. We test remote, receiver, and wiring, then program/replace as needed.
