Craigavon is newer cluster development packed close together, which means complex entrances doing nearly all the work and compact unit gates behind them.
Entrances under constant load
A Craigavon complex gate cycles constantly, and the wear follows the traffic rather than the calendar: gears, then limits, then beams.
Because the developments are dense and close together, several schemes on the same road frequently reach the same stage at the same time — which is a cohort rather than a run of bad luck.
The answer on all of them is the same: a motor rated for the real cycle count and a twice-yearly service.
Compact unit gates
Private gates inside these developments are small and lightly used, and the faults are settling and geometry rather than wear. On a slider, the track and the rack are dealt with under sliding gate repairs.
Narrow driveways put beams exactly where mirrors pass, so they get knocked regularly. Limits drift as a gate beds in. Neither is expensive, and both get left because a new installation is assumed to be fine. Where the fault turns out to be the motor itself, that is ordinary gate motor repair work rather than anything exotic.
Who instructs the work
The entrance is common property and a resident cannot authorise work on it. Schemes with one named person able to approve a callout get same-day repairs; schemes waiting for a trustee meeting do not.
That single arrangement is worth more than any hardware decision on a shared entrance.
