Gate Maintenance and Repair

Our expert gate repair service ensures your home's security with prompt, reliable fixes for all types of gates, enhancing functionality and extending lifespan while providing peace of mind to homeowners.

Gate maintenance and repair

Driveway gates, and the operators that run them.

Swing and slide gate operators, safety devices, keypads and intercoms, serviced and repaired across the Denver metro. Gates sit outside in Colorado weather all year, which is why they need more attention than people expect.

Swing and slide gate operators
Hinges, rollers, tracks and posts
Keypads, intercoms, remotes and phone entry

Safety loops, photo eyes and edges
Battery backup and solar operators
Seasonal service before winter

What goes wrong

Three things weather does to a gate.

None of them are the gate's fault.

Ice in the track

A slide gate track fills, freezes and the operator fights it. The operator usually loses, and the repair is the operator.

Posts that move

Freeze and thaw shifts a post a fraction every year until the gate stops lining up and the latch no longer catches.

Dead safety loops

Buried loops get cut by landscaping or go open-circuit with ground movement. The gate then closes on things it should not.

How it goes

How a gate call works.

Diagnose, quote, repair.

We look at the whole run

Operator, posts, hinges or track, wiring, safety devices and entry hardware.

We find the actual cause

An operator that keeps failing is a symptom. We would rather fix the cause once.

We quote it written

Parts named, with the choice between repair and replace put to you plainly.

We test the safeties

Loops, eyes and edges tested so the gate stops when it should.

Questions

Before you call.

The things people ask us most on this job.

Do you service gates you did not install?

Yes. Most gate work we do is on systems someone else put in.

My gate opener is solar. Can you work on it?

Yes. Solar operators are common on long driveways out here, and the usual fault is the battery rather than the panel.

Do you charge for an estimate?

No. Estimates are free on every job, residential and commercial. If you want a number before anyone drives out, send a photo of the door or the opener and we can usually get close on the phone.

How fast can you get here?

Most repairs we can get to the same day or the next, and we take after-hours calls when a door is stuck open or will not close. Call (720) 894-8417 and we will tell you honestly where you sit in the day rather than guess.

What areas do you cover?

The south and west Denver metro: Littleton, Highlands Ranch, Centennial, Englewood, Ken Caryl, Lakewood, Golden, Arvada, Westminster, Broomfield, Thornton, Denver, Aurora, Boulder, Longmont and Castle Rock, where we are based.

Are you insured?

Yes, and we are a family business that has been in the trade 41 years. We will send proof of insurance before work starts if you want it.

Next step

Gate stuck, slow or unsafe?

Free assessment, and a straight answer about whether it is the operator or the gate.

Exceptional garage door repair services!!! Can't recommend Tim highly enough
Peter Sanderson
A-Family installed our garage door, and did a fantastic job! The internal design of our garage created some inherent challenges, but Tim made it happen with some creative workarounds. We are looking forward to having them install a jack shaft opener in the near future. Highly recommend!

Don't even question it, just call A-Family Garage Door. Tim was very communicative, explaining everything clearly. The spring had broken, but I had other issues too. In an hour he installed the new spring and resolved all the other problems I've been fighting with this door for 13 years. Tim should be your contact for Garage Doors, no question!

A Family Garage Door definitely deserves 5 stars. They repaired our garage door when it refused to open, and the repair has completely stood the test of time. They were prompt, professional, and very knowledgeable. It’s hard to find service this reliable. Will definitely use them again if we ever need garage door work!
Matt T
We had an old style garage door from Ankmar that had seen better days and had to be replaced. Tim was very upfront with what needed to be done and the costs. Not only did the door need replacing but needed to be reframed as well. Who knew? The end result was beautiful. We were extremely satisfied. It's nice coming home to a pretty and worry-free door. We'd recommend Tim and AFGD hands down. Very knowledgeable and great service.
Lori Tucker
This is a must. The here guys are great. Not only friendly but very reasonable. They are very efficient and knowledgeable. You couldn’t ask for anyone better. They get the job done and what a difference it makes . I would highly recommend them. Believe me you won’t be sorry and you definitely won’t need anyone else.
