Frequently Asked Questions

We’re often asked about electric driveway gate repair issues, and our expert technicians are here to help. Below are some of the most common questions—and our trusted answers—so you can make informed decisions and know when to call the professionals at One & Only Garage Door and Gate Repair.

Why isn’t my electric driveway gate working?

There are several possible causes for a malfunctioning electric gate. The issue could stem from:

  • A mechanical or hardware failure in the gate arm, hinges, or frame
  • A misaligned access control panel or keypad
  • An outage or fault with your property’s power supply
  • A broken reverse safety sensor or photo eye
  • A damaged or outdated gate opener motor
  • Or simply the need for a tune-up or lubrication

Our certified gate technicians in Los Angeles, San Diego, Orange County, and surrounding areas can quickly diagnose and repair your system. But before calling us, try releasing the gate and manually opening it to determine if the issue is motor-related or mechanical.

Can I add an automatic opener to my existing gate?

Yes, often! Most well-built manual gates can be retrofitted with an electric gate opener, but several factors must be considered:

  • Is your gate level and structurally sound?
  • Does it swing or slide freely without dragging or grinding?
  • Are the gate posts properly anchored to concrete?
  • Is there enough clearance and stability to support automated movement?

We strongly recommend having one of our experienced installers assess your current gate. We’ve upgraded hundreds of manual gates across California, Texas, and Florida into seamless automatic systems. Let us make yours next.

What is an automatic gate?

Automatic (or electric) gates are motorized systems that control access to a property using remote controls, keypads, or smart devices. They’re most commonly installed in residential driveways, commercial entrances, or industrial zones to provide:

  • Controlled vehicle access
  • Enhanced perimeter security
  • Increased property value and visual appeal

They consist of two key components:

  • The gate itself is typically crafted from wrought iron, steel, wood, or aluminum and designed to match your fencing or architecture.
  • The gate operator (opener): the motorized mechanism that powers the gate’s movement. Operators may be chain-driven, gear-driven, hydraulically, or solar-powered, depending on the system.

We install all gate types—from swing to sliding to cantilever—and integrate access control features tailored to your lifestyle.

Why are automatic gates so popular in California and other major cities?

Security and privacy are top priorities for homeowners and business owners in Los Angeles, Miami, and Houston. Electric gates to offer:

  • Peace of mind with restricted access
  • Increased property value and curb appeal
  • Personalized entry via remotes, apps, or intercoms
  • Durability with weather-resistant materials and heavy-duty motors

Whether you’re protecting a private estate or a commercial facility, our electric gate systems are designed for long-term performance and aesthetics. Our technicians will walk you through every option—from gate style to access control—so you get the right fit.

When should I get my electric driveway gate serviced?

Don’t wait until your gate fails. Regular service can prevent costly repairs. Look for these warning signs:

  • Unusual squeaking or grinding noises
  • A sagging or loose chain (especially if it drags on the ground)
  • The gate is slamming into the posts at the opening/closing.
  • Slower-than-normal operation
  • Intermittent response from remotes or keypads

As a standard practice, we recommend servicing your gate at least once a year. Preventive maintenance extends the lifespan and ensures your gate system operates safely year-round.

What are the main features and benefits of installing an electric driveway gate?

Installing an automatic gate is one of the smartest investments you can make. Here’s why.

  • Security: Only authorized personnel can access your property
  • Convenience: No need to manually open/close the gate
  • Customization: Choose from decorative styles like modern aluminum or classic wrought iron
  • Value: Enhances curb appeal and resale value
  • Durability: Built to last in various weather and traffic conditions

At One & Only Garage Door and Gate Repair, we offer a broad selection of custom gates designed to match your property’s style and needs. Whether you want something bold and architectural or subtle and secure, we’ll help you bring it to life.
