AUTOMATIC DOORS SHARJAH - AL YARMOUK AUTOMATIC DOORS SHARJAH
What if you get up in the morning and your sliding gate motor is not working, here we have are some possible reasons and tips for you to following:
1. Power Issues
Check if the motor is receiving power. Verify the main power supply adjnd circuit breaker.
Look for any tripped breaker or blown fuse in the control panel.
Ensure the power switch is turned ON.
2. Remote Control or Keypad Failure
Replace the remote batteries if it's not responding.
Check if the remote or keypad is correctly programmed.
Try using the manual override to confirm if the motor works.
3. Obstruction on the Gate Track
Look for any debris, dirt, or physical obstructions in the gate track.
Ensure the rollers and wheels are moving freely.
4. Motor Overheating or Burnout
If the motor has been running continuously, it might have overheated. Wait for some time and try again.
If the motor smells burnt or makes unusual noises, it may need servicing or replacement.
5. Limit Switch or Sensor Issues
Check if the limit switch is misaligned or faulty. This can prevent the gate from opening/closing.
Verify if the safety sensors are clean and properly aligned. If they are blocked or dirty, the gate may not move.
6. Mechanical Failure
Check if the chain or rack is broken, loose, or jammed. Lubricate the moving parts to ensure smooth operation with WD40 Spray and not with grease or any greasy material, as in UAE the grease will catch more sand and will increase the problem rather than decreasing the problem for short period of time. So its better always to use WD-40 spray and no other lubricants should be applied.
7. Control Board or Wiring Issues
Inspect the wiring connections in the motor and control box. Loose or damaged wiring can cause failures. Many times in UAE to cut the cost of installations, most of the automatic doors companies install low quality / sub standards wires, that will work fine for an year or more but eventually will start creating issues in the motor. Low quality wires cannot withstand the hot weather of UAE and starts to touch each other and creates short circuits or at-least make the door not operating normally.
If the control board is faulty, you may need a technician to repair or replace it.
8. Automatic System Malfunction
If your gate is connected to a WiFi or automatic system or phone call system, check if there is a software issue or network problem.
Just try other options like push button or remotes
Reset the system and try again.
