Troubleshooting a Malfunctioning Residential Gate at Night
When your automatic gate stops working after dark, quick action can prevent security issues and unnecessary frustration. The following steps will help you identify the problem and implement temporary solutions until professional repairs can be made.
Assessing the Problem
First, check if your gate has power by examining any indicator lights on the control panel or motor housing. If these lights are off, you may have a power outage or tripped circuit breaker.
Inspect the gate tracks for any visible obstructions like fallen branches, rocks, or debris that might be blocking the gate's path. Use a flashlight to thoroughly examine the full length of the track system.
Emergency Power Source Integration
Battery backup systems can provide temporary power during outages. Many modern gates come with built-in backup batteries that automatically activate when main power fails.

If your system includes a backup battery, check its status indicator. A functioning backup should operate your gate for 10-20 cycles depending on its capacity and condition.
Manual Release Usage
Most automatic gates include a manual release mechanism for emergencies. Locate the manual release key slot, typically on the side of the motor housing or near the gate's hinges.

Insert the manual release key and turn it to disengage the motor. This action disconnects the gate from its automatic operation system, allowing you to move it by hand.
Contacting Professional Help
When DIY solutions fail, calling professional gate repair services is your best option. Keep our emergency contact information readily accessible - we recommend storing it in your phone contacts.

When calling, be prepared to describe specific symptoms: Is the gate making unusual noises? Is it moving partially then stopping? Did the failure occur suddenly or progressively? These details help us diagnose the issue remotely.
