Common problems we fix

Most failures come down to a few parts.

Gates stop because of dead batteries, failed boards after a power surge, worn gearboxes, misaligned photo eyes, drifting limits or a bad receiver. We test the whole system, fix the cause and check the safety devices before we leave.

Reliable work, a fair price and good communication.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This company did a fantastic job on replacing our VERY inferior ALEKO product with a way better LIFTMASTER system. The LIFTMASTER system is miles apart from the other brand! So much smoother, cleaner and so much more! Safe Haven Electric Gates did a great job on the install making our gate open even further than the other brand. Very nice people to work with.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Highly commend the technician Logan Uzan who came out to my home for a service call. The experience was fantastic from start to finish.
He was incredibly knowledgeable and pinpointed the issue immediately—truly spot-on with his diagnosis. What impressed me most was his willingness to share his expertise; he actually took the time to teach me a quick fix I could use in the future if the problem were to reoccur. That sort of helpfulness and transparency is rare these days.

Safe haven has been extremely customer service oriented from their initial quotes to service calls. Amazing people and service

Why did my gate opener stop working?

The most common causes are a dead battery, a failed board after a power surge, a blocked or misaligned photo eye, drifting limits, worn gears or a bad receiver.

Can you fix my gate the same day?

Often, yes. Our trucks carry common parts, so many repairs are finished on the first visit. Special-order parts can take a few days.

Should I repair or replace my gate opener?

If the operator is in good shape and parts are available, repair is usually best. If it is old, discontinued or needs repeat repairs, a new operator often costs less over time. We give you both prices.

Do you repair openers you did not install?

Yes. We repair most gate operators, whoever installed them.

My remotes stopped working. Can you help?

Yes. We test the remotes and receiver, reprogram or replace remotes, and upgrade the receiver if needed.

Do you offer emergency gate repair?

Yes. If your gate is stuck open or shut, call us and we will prioritize it. See our emergency gate repair page.
