Modern Automated gates are designed to sense obstructions. Sometimes weather conditions can be interpreted as obstructions. For example: Ice and snow buildup around the gate, operating chains and drive system can simulate an obstruction thus causing the operator to stop. This is not a malfunction of the system, it is often a demonstration of a properly balanced system that can detect a small change in force required to move the gate panel. Simply clearing the gate area of resistance and resetting the operator will resume normal operation. In the event this does not return the system to normal operation please feel free to call for further assistance.
Always inspect and work from a safe area to prevent injury and entrapment, If you are not qualified or comfortable performing these inspections or service please contact United Fence for assistance.
