Automatic Gate Servicing

Following the purchase of your automatic gates from Midland Control Systems, just like owning a vehicle, it is necessary to carry out regular preventative servicing of the equipment to enhance its reliability and increase the life span of the system.

Customers are encouraged to carry out their own regular inspections of their gates and automation equipment, to ensure that more obvious faults are detected early before they become a major issue.

A visit by one of our service engineers will allow the more hard to notice issues to be detected early, allowing you the opportunity to deal with them before they become a major problem and inconvenience. Dependant upon the number of operations per day the automatic gates are making, it is advised by the Health & Safety Executive that services should be carried out on a six or twelve monthly basis.

Servicing of your automatic gate system would briefly include;

  • The cleaning & lubricating of all relevant components.
  • The cleaning and checking of manual release facilities.
  • The monitoring and topping up of any hydraulic fluid levels.
  • The checking and securing of all fixing points.
  • The cleaning & testing of all ancillary and safety equipment.

If you would like to have more information about servicing of your automatic gates, please feel free to contact our offices, where a member of the team will be happy to advise you.
