Sometimes the gate itself is fine – it's the way you open it that's gone wrong. Remotes stop working, receivers fail, keypads get water in them and intercoms lose their picture or sound. I sort all of it.

Remote control problems

  • remotes that have stopped working altogether
  • poor range – having to be right at the gate before it opens
  • one remote works, the others don't
  • remotes lost or stolen and needing removing from the system
  • old fixed-code remotes that need upgrading

See gate remote not working? for checks you can do yourself.

Receiver problems

The receiver is the part that listens for your remote's signal – either built into the control board or a separate plug-in or external unit. If no remotes work, the receiver may have failed, lost its memory, or have a damaged aerial.

Keypad problems

  • keys not responding, often after water gets in
  • forgotten codes
  • wireless keypads with flat batteries or lost pairing

Intercom problems

  • no picture, or a poor picture
  • no sound, or a buzzing line
  • the gate doesn't open from the handset or app
  • the app has stopped connecting

See gate intercom problems.

Repair or replace?

Remotes and keypads are usually replaced rather than repaired. Receivers and intercoms can sometimes be repaired; often an upgrade gives you better security and features for not much more. I'll give you the options and a price.

Questions people ask me

Why has my gate remote stopped working?

Most often a flat battery. If a new battery doesn't fix it, the remote may need recoding or the receiver may have a fault.

Can you supply remotes for my old gate?

For most major brands, yes. If they're no longer made, a new receiver lets you use modern remotes.

Can you fix an intercom you didn't install?

Yes, for most common systems.
