Automatic gate repair is the diagnosis and repair of the powered parts of a gate, the operator or motor, the control board, the safety sensors, and the access controls, along with the mechanical parts like hinges, rollers, track, and welds that let the gate move. The goal is a gate that opens, closes, and reverses safely on its own.
When a gate in Orinda stops working, it usually leaves a car stuck on a wooded hillside driveway. We fix that fast across Lamorinda. Orinda homes sit on hilly, tree-lined lots, from Sleepy Hollow and the Orinda Country Club to Glorietta and Orinda Downs, and we repair and service the gates that protect them. We repair every part of a residential or commercial gate: gate openers, control boards, safety sensors, and the metalwork itself, across Contra Costa County.

What our customers say
Automatic Gate Masters installed a pedestrian gate at our commercial property in San Francisco, and we couldn't be happier. Matt managed the project professionally.
They replaced my old gate with a beautiful, secure one. The workmanship is excellent, and customer service was top-notch from start to finish.
