Questions and Answers

What types of automatic gate repairs do you handle for San Rafael homes?

We handle all common automatic gate issues, including motor failures, sensor misalignment, track obstructions, and remote control malfunctions. For local homes near the marina or in hillside areas, we often deal with corrosion from salt air or power supply issues. We diagnose and repair swing, sliding, and lifting gates, and can replace openers if needed.

How do you protect fences and gates from the aging effects of Marin County's weather?

Our weatherproofing services include sealing and staining wood fences to prevent rot, applying rust-resistant coatings to metal gates, and ensuring proper drainage around posts. For San Rafael's mix of fog, rain, and sun, we recommend annual inspections and use high-quality, UV-resistant materials to extend the life of your fence or gate.

My gate lock keeps failing—what could be causing this and can you fix it?

Frequent gate lock failures in San Rafael often stem from worn-out internal mechanisms, misalignment due to settling gates, or electrical issues in automatic locks. We can replace or repair manual locks, electronic strike plates, and magnetic locks. Our technicians will also check the gate's alignment and weatherproofing to prevent future problems. Same-day service is available for emergency lockouts.
