Troubleshooting
Gate is difficult to open or close manually.
Check that hinges are properly aligned and not obstructed. Ensure there are no debris around the gate's path. Verify gate posts are stable and plumb.
Gate appears to be corroding or showing rust.
Aluminium is highly corrosion-resistant. If discoloration occurs, it may be surface-level from external contaminants; try cleaning with mild soapy water. If significant corrosion is present, contact the manufacturer as this is unusual.
Automation system is not functioning correctly with the gate.
Ensure the gate is moving freely manually. Check that the automation kit is correctly installed and compatible with the gate's weight and size. Consult the automation system's manual or a professional installer.
Powder coating is chipped or damaged.
