Our Track and Roller Repair Services
Our track and roller repair services address key components that keep your automatic gates functioning smoothly and securely. We focus on precise alignment, thorough inspections, proper lubrication, and quick emergency repairs to reduce downtime and extend gate lifespan
Track Alignment and Replacement
Proper track alignment is essential for your gate’s smooth operation. Misaligned tracks cause the gate to stick, wear faster, or even derail. We carefully measure and adjust your gate tracks to restore correct positioning.
When alignment is no longer an option due to damage or wear, we provide full track replacement. We use durable materials matched to your gate type and environment, ensuring long-lasting results. Our team removes old tracks cleanly and installs new ones with precision, minimizing disruption.
Roller Inspection and Installation
Rollers bear the gate’s weight and guide its movement, so their condition directly affects gate performance. We inspect rollers for signs of wear, rust, and damage during every service call.
If rollers are worn or broken, we replace them with high-quality, weather-resistant options. Our installation ensures rollers fit snugly and roll smoothly, preventing gate shaking or uneven movement. We handle all roller types and sizes to meet your system’s specifications.
Lubrication and Maintenance Solutions
Regular lubrication reduces friction and wear on both tracks and rollers. We apply appropriate lubricants designed for outdoor use, avoiding buildup that attracts dirt or debris.
Our maintenance includes cleaning tracks and rollers before lubrication, removing obstructions that could impair function. We recommend a tailored maintenance schedule based on gate usage and environmental factors to keep your system reliable year-round.

Unexpected issues with your gate track require fast response to maintain security and access. We offer emergency repairs to address track bends, breaks, or blockages that prevent gate operation.

Essential Tips for DIY Track and Roller Repair
Maintaining gate tracks and rollers requires precise attention to detail and routine care. Simple steps help avoid costly repairs and ensure consistent gate performance.
Inspect for Debris and Obstructions
We start by carefully examining the track for dirt, leaves, or small objects. Even minor debris can cause rollers to jam or derail.
Use a brush or vacuum to clear the track thoroughly. Avoid using water unless the track material is rust-resistant. Check the rollers themselves for wear or damage while inspecting the track.
Regular inspection prevents common problems like grinding noises or uneven gate movement. Set a schedule to clean and inspect the track monthly in dusty environments.
Use Proper Lubricants for Smooth Operation
Applying the right lubricant is essential. We recommend a silicone-based spray or lithium grease designed for metal on metal contact.
Avoid oil-based lubricants as they attract dirt and grime, which may worsen track conditions. Apply lubricant sparingly on rollers and inside the track groove.
Lubrication reduces friction and wear, extending the life of rollers and tracks. Reapply lubricant after cleaning or every three months, depending on gate usage.
Check Roller Alignment Regularly
Proper roller alignment ensures smooth gate movement and reduces strain on the system. We use a level or straight edge to verify that rollers line up evenly along the track.
Misaligned rollers cause uneven wear and may lead the gate to stick or come off the track. Adjust roller brackets carefully according to manufacturer instructions.
Perform alignment checks quarterly or after any significant impact or gate adjustment to maintain optimal performance.
Tighten Loose Track Hardware
Loose bolts and screws can cause track shifting and roller instability. We inspect all mounting hardware frequently to detect any looseness.
Using the correct tools, tighten fasteners to manufacturer-recommended torque levels. Replace any missing or damaged hardware immediately.
Check hardware after storms or physical impacts to prevent gate malfunctions and maintain safety standards.
