Why Us

Gate Safe Aware inspections with scheduled maintenance plans

Neglected gates show wear, misalignments and safety faults that escalate into costly failures when not inspected regularly.

Common Challenges

Wear parts failing without lubrication
Lubrication lapses let hinges and bearings seize, causing sudden access loss and urgent repair bills.
Wet winters lead to motor water ingress
Heavy clay and wet winters raise the risk of flooded mounts and motor failures if drainage is poor.
Safety compliance drifting unnoticed
Sensors and entrapment protection drift out of adjustment without annual checks, increasing safety and liability risks.

About This Service

About this Service

Preventative maintenance and servicing in Stock focuses on farm properties and detached homes where heavy clay and wet winters can affect foundations and drainage. The service suits owners who want scheduled checks to protect automation from water-related failures.

Inspections pay special attention to drainage around motor pits, cable-run protection from water ingress and corrosion checks on exposed fixings. Heavy clay can cause post movement in prolonged wet spells, so servicing includes plumb checks and a visual record of any gradual settlement. Motors, controls and battery backups are tested for correct operation under load. Recommended intervals vary from annual to biannual depending on gate cycles and site exposure. PPM contracts may include agreed response times for agricultural peak periods and parts-replacement terms. Structural remediation such as post re-setting or new drainage installation is quoted separately, as it falls outside routine maintenance visits.

FAQ

Answers about inspections, contracts and local requirements

Common questions on what servicing covers and how it protects your gates.

Small wear spreads to hinges and motors, causing failures. Emergency replacements can exceed £1,000. Annual lubrication and part replacement usually prevent sudden breakdowns, and Stock's wet winters speed corrosion if left unchecked.

Safety devices drift out of adjustment, increasing entrapment and liability risks. Delays raise repair bills and likelihood of emergency callouts; a survey finds faults before they become dangerous or costly.

Most domestic gate upgrades do not need planning permission. If you alter access onto a classified road or work on a listed structure check with the local council. Electrical work must meet 18th Edition Wiring Regulations.

An annual service covers a safety survey, lubrication, hinge and motor checks, adjustments and a service report. Worn parts are recorded and can be replaced under contract or charged separately.

Yes. Gates can fail without warning as lubrication wears and sensors drift. Scheduled servicing finds early wear, reduces emergency callouts and extends motor life, especially for rural and farm use.
