Gate motors for Lombardy East's established properties and mature garden boundaries
Lombardy East is about 7 km east of Sandton City. In Lombardy East, many properties are older, with freestanding homes and complexes set in mature gardens. Over decades, trees grow large, their roots can heave precast walls and sliding gate tracks, and their leaves clog up the mechanism. An older gate on a property near Vincent Tshabalala Road or Wordsworth Road may have also dropped on its hinges or wheels, forcing the motor to work harder than it was designed to.
Our first step is always to get the gate itself running smoothly by hand. For a Lombardy East property, this means checking the track for any warping caused by tree roots and clearing out accumulated garden debris. We service or replace worn wheels and make sure the gate is perfectly aligned before we even look at the motor. We then fit a motor suitable for the gate's weight, along with important battery backup and safety beams.
If you have recently bought a home in Lombardy East, the previous owner's remotes can still open your gate. The same applies to sectional title units where past tenants may not have returned their remotes. For your security, we can wipe the gate motor's memory completely. We then reprogram only the remotes in your possession, giving you full control over who has access to your property.
Everything we install and repair, and how a job runs from first call to handover, is on our gate automation page.
Questions from Lombardy East
My gate is noisy and struggling. My garden has large trees near the wall. Could they be the problem?
Yes, it's very likely. Tree roots can slowly push a gate track out of alignment, and falling leaves and twigs can jam the wheels or rack. We always check for and fix these mechanical issues before assessing the motor itself.
We just moved into a house in Lombardy East. How can we be sure only our remotes work?
We can clear the gate motor's receiver of all stored remotes. Then we program only the ones you give us, making sure no old remotes from previous owners or tenants will be able to open your gate.
