What We Do

Preventative maintenance & servicing that helps Homeowners keep gates opening reliably

Covering lubrication, safety inspections, compliance certification, maintenance logs, and quarterly visit options

Gate Maintenance Service
Lubrication, safety checks, and a maintenance log to reduce failures.
Preventative Servicing Plan
Quarterly visits with lubrication, compliance certification, service logs.
Annual Safety Inspection
Safety testing with a compliance report and recorded fixes.

Why Chigwell Electric Gates

Safety-first preventative maintenance with itemised compliance reports

When lubrication and recorded checks are missed, gate motors and sensors deteriorate in wet conditions and small faults become emergency callouts.

Common Challenges

Gates seizing after missed lubrication
Neglected hinges and motors seize in damp conditions, causing driveway blockages and unexpected repair bills.
Safety risks from worn sensors and parts
Worn obstacle sensors or corroded wiring raise the chance of entrapment and failed safety tests during inspections.
No maintenance history delays repairs
Missing service logs lead to repeated diagnostics, longer downtime, and higher emergency callout costs.

How We Help

Quarterly visit schedule for gates
Scheduled quarterly inspections, lubrication, and logged entries reduce unplanned failures and help maintain compliance.
Compliance certificates after each visit
Each inspection produces an itemised compliance certificate for building records and insurance purposes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common preventative maintenance and compliance questions

Practical guidance on schedules, risks, and local considerations for Emerson Park gates.

Scheduled inspections that include lubrication, safety checks, obstacle-detection testing, and a compliance certificate with a maintenance log.

Small faults often escalate to seized hinges or motor failure. That leads to driveway blockage, longer downtime, and higher emergency repair costs. Regular servicing prevents escalation.

Delayed inspections let worn sensors or corroded wiring go unnoticed, increasing entrapment risk and causing failed safety checks at inspections or audits.

Most domestic gate installations do not need planning permission. Check Havering council rules if your property is in a conservation area or changes boundary walls.

We recommend quarterly visits with lubrication and an annual safety inspection recorded in your maintenance log to meet compliance needs.

No. Work is completed by independent local Electric Gate Installations in and around Chigwell. We review requests and arrange a suitable Electric Gate Installation to contact you with a quote and availability.
