Serving Dubai (UAE). If your automatic gate is not opening, the cause is usually power supply, remote/receiver, safety sensor, or control board issues. We fix sliding, swing, and barrier gates across Dubai. Call/WhatsApp: +971 50 234 2367.

Why Your Gate Is Not Opening (Common Causes)

  • No power / breaker tripped (MCB off, power supply issue)
  • Remote battery dead / remote not programmed
  • Receiver fault or interference
  • Photocell / safety circuit blocking (even if gate looks clear)
  • Control board fault (fuse blown, relay issue)
  • Mechanical jam (rollers/track/rack/hinges resistance)
  • Motor capacitor / arm issue (for some swing motors)
  • Barrier loop detector issue (for parking barriers)

Safe Quick Checks You Can Do

  • Check if there is power in the property and breaker is ON
  • Try the manual key release (only if you know how)
  • Replace remote battery and try again
  • Clean photocells and check nothing blocks them
  • If the motor is humming/noisy, stop using it to avoid more damage
  • Send us a video + motor label photo on WhatsApp

⚠️ Avoid opening the control box or touching wiring if you’re not trained.

FAQs

If there is power, why the gate still doesn’t open?

Often the safety circuit (photocell), receiver, or control board is blocking the command even when power is available.

My remote works sometimes — why?

Weak battery, receiver range issue, interference, or wiring/terminal looseness

Can dust cause the gate to stop opening?

Yes. Dust/sand increases resistance in track/rollers and can trigger overload or safety reversal.

Should I keep pressing the remote to force it?

No. Forcing can damage the motor, gearbox, or control board. Better to diagnose first.

Do you repair BFT / NICE / other brands?

Yes. Send a photo of the motor label/control board and we’ll confirm support.

Can you come same day in Dubai?

Often yes depending on schedule and location. WhatsApp your location and a short video.
