Gate Repair FAQs

Answers to the most common questions about automatic gate repair and maintenance in Kenya.

Gate repair costs in Kenya vary depending on the fault, the brand, and whether spare parts are required. A remote control reprogramming starts from Ksh 1,500, while a full motor replacement can range from Ksh 15,000 to Ksh 60,000+. We always provide a written quote before beginning work, so you know the cost upfront.
For clients in Nairobi and surrounding areas, we aim to provide same-day or next-day attendance during business hours (Monday to Friday, 8:30 am–5:30 pm). Emergency and after-hours callouts may be available — please call us directly to discuss.
Yes. Our technicians are experienced with all major automatic gate brands available in Kenya, regardless of who originally installed the system. We carry diagnostic equipment compatible with the most common control boards and can source parts for most brands.

Regular servicing extends motor life, prevents unexpected breakdowns, and maintains safety compliance. We offer annual maintenance contracts for residential and commercial clients.
This is almost always a battery issue. Sealed lead-acid batteries typically last 2–3 years in Kenya's climate. When capacity drops, the battery can't sustain the motor after dark. It could also be an undersized battery bank or a failing charge controller. Our technicians will test your solar system and advise the most cost-effective solution.
