Commercial Electric Gate Maintenance Takeover – Hereford 🔧

We’ve recently taken over the planned maintenance of this commercial automatic gate system in Hereford, ensuring it continues to operate safely, reliably and in line with current industry standards.

Our engineer carried out a full DHF maintenance inspection, 50-point safety check, and electronic force testing on these double underground commercial car park gates, providing the customer with a detailed digital service report and recommendations.

This installation already benefits from an excellent range of safety features, including:

• Hinge safety straps
• Wrap-around hinges
• Top, middle and bottom horizontal safety edges
• Vertical centre safety edges
• Internal and external photocells
• Flashing warning lights
• Reduced motor operating forces

The system is automated using CAME Frog underground gate motors and integrated with Paxton access control, providing secure and reliable access for the site.

As part of our recommendations, we’ve advised the installation of Gatemen Automatic Gate Keep Clear safety signs and the use of our maintenance logbooks to maintain a clear service history and support ongoing compliance.

Whether you manage a commercial site, apartment complex, school or private property, Gatemen offers affordable planned maintenance packages, DHF and Gate Safe compliance inspections, force testing, electronic service reports, repairs and 24/7 support throughout Herefordshire and the surrounding areas.

If you’re looking for a professional company to take over the maintenance of your automatic gates, we’d be pleased to help.

🔧 What’s Involved in Servicing Roger Technology Above Ground Electric Gate Motors? 🔧

Regular servicing is essential to keep your automatic gates operating safely, reliably and efficiently. A professional service doesn’t just prevent breakdowns – it helps extend the life of your gate automation and ensures your system remains compliant with current safety standards.

During a typical Roger Technology above ground motor service, our engineers will:

✅ Inspect the complete gate system for wear and damage
✅ Check gate hinges, bearings and mechanical alignment
✅ Test the Roger Technology motors for smooth operation and correct performance
✅ Inspect the control panel, wiring and electrical connections
✅ Test all safety devices, including photocells, safety edges and emergency stop functions
✅ Check opening and closing forces to ensure safe operation
✅ Inspect manual release mechanisms and battery backups (where fitted)
✅ Lubricate moving components where required
✅ Carry out a full Gate Safe risk assessment and identify any safety improvements
✅ Adjust motor settings if required and perform a full operational test

A routine service can often identify small issues before they become costly repairs, reducing unexpected downtime and helping your gates continue to perform as they should all year round.

At Gatemen, we service and repair all Roger Technology automation systems across Gloucestershire, Bristol, Swindon, Wiltshire and the South West. Whether your gates are installed at a home, business, school or industrial site, our experienced engineers can keep them operating at their best.

If your Roger Technology gates haven’t been serviced in the last 12 months, now is the perfect time to arrange a preventative maintenance visit.
