Gate Motor Maintenance
Both the gate and the motor need to be maintained. When it comes to the gate, you must keep the gate rails and the wheels clean. Always remove any debris from that area. For examples, soil, leaves, stones, sand etc. You may find that you need to build a retaining wall or add special drainage so that soil is not washed to the gate area and also so that water does not collect around the motor. You need to make sure that the wheels are running smoothly all of the time otherwise the gate motor has to work harder and will not last as long. The main maintenance required for your gate motor is to make sure that no animals or insects get inside. No gate motor is completely sealed, so it is easy for them to get in and damage the electronics. In order to protect your motor you need to treat it with insect and, especially, ant repellents. Do not grease any part of the gate motor as dirt will stick to it and it will cause problems with the mechanics. Maintaining your gate and gate motor can increase the life of your gate motor and delay the need for a new gate motor installation.Gate and Gate Motor Parts
