Santa Monica offers a diverse range of activities, from sport fishing to concerts at the Pacific Park amusement park. There are historic homes along the beach dating way back to the Beach Boys’ days of early surfing in California. All those attractions mean you need to have a working and reliable security system in place to protect your privacy and your family’s well-being.
Our professional team at WIN Garage Door & Gates helps ensure elevated security by offering fast and cost-effective electric gate repair in Santa Monica, CA. We come to your home or business, diagnose the issue, and use our years of experience to get your gate up and running once again for all your guests, employees, and family members.
What Causes Electric Gates to Stop Working in Santa Monica, CA?
While the undeniable beauty of the beach appeals to all Santa Monica residents, it also means that your gate systems experience the effects of salt air, frequent storms, heavy winds, and a lot of foot traffic. These activities place significant pressure on the mechanisms and gate electronics in your system. Our team helps alleviate that pressure, working with electric gate problems like:
- Gates that will not open or close all the way
- Unresponsive remote controls or broken keypad access
- Intermittent gate operation, where it stops at random spaces
- Loud noises like grinding and clicking during use
- Slow-moving or a jerky gate motion that causes more damage
- Power surges due to storm damage or inconsistent electric systems
How do I know if my electric gate needs a professional repair or just a reset? A quick reset is always preferred, as it saves you time, money, and hassle. However, if the problems persist after the reset, you will need to call in an expert. We have the tools and know-how to diagnose what is really going on that a reset just can’t fix.
How We Repair Electric Gates in Santa Monica, CA
As a popular resort town, Santa Monica sees a lot of new faces. While that’s great for the economy, you want to be sure no one is walking up your private driveway, accessing your security-controlled neighborhood, or trying to get into your family-run business.

We spend a considerable amount of time staying up-to-date on the latest electric gate models, manufacturers, and materials. Santa Monica is an area with everything from standard metal gates to custom wood accents, glass, and luxury designs. Our electric gate repair in Santa Monica, CA provides everything from rebooting a control board to replacing a fried motor capacitor.
We work with leading gate systems like FAAC, Ramset, Mighty Mule, DoorKing, Viking, and LiftMaster. We also provide service for premium material and luxury gate models.
What to Do If Your Gate Stops Working in Santa Monica, CA
Please do not try to force the electric gate open or closed if it stops working. That is likely to cause additional damage or end with a new noise of metal-on-metal grinding. If the gate stops working, start by replacing the batteries in your gate opener or keypad and checking for any obstructions near the sensors.
Can I fix an electric gate myself? Most electric gate user manuals will include a “quick fix” or “FAQ” section that can help you with minor repairs. A seasoned professional should handle anything more complex to ensure you don’t invalidate the warranty or cause additional damage to the gate, its internal mechanisms, and the surrounding structure holding it in place.
