Swing gate repairs — silent, level and warrantied

One leaf opening before the other, or one side dragging on the paving, is the single most common swing gate complaint. It's almost always caused by a bent hinge, a settled pier, or a mis-set delay on the control board. We diagnose which, and fix it properly.

A swing motor that hums but doesn't move usually points to a seized hydraulic piston (on ET Nice hydraulic models) or a stripped gear inside the arm. Neither is DIY territory. Our technicians carry rebuild kits for the common ET Nice and Centurion arms in stock.

A swing gate motor is only as good as the hinge it's mounted on. If the pier has settled, or the hinge has worn out its bushing, no motor in the world will move that gate smoothly.

We rebuild hinges, replace bushings, and where necessary chemically anchor new mounting brackets into the piers. Only then do we recommission the motor.

We work on every major brand — Centurion (D5, D10, D3, XTrac), ET Nice, Gemini, Hansa, DTS and BFT — with genuine replacement parts stocked on the van.

For ET Nice, the Robus and Wingo controller ranges are well supported and we hold stock. Centurion swing motors run on the same control board family as the D5/D10 sliding range, which makes parts availability strong.

Swing gates opening outward into a pavement or driveway need working safety beams — not optional. We test the beams, replace faulty photocells, and set up pedestrian-open mode so only one leaf opens when it's just a person coming through. Pair this with intercom systems or access control for a complete setup.

Swing gate repairs are done across all four regions — Sandton, Randburg, Midrand and Centurion — with common callouts in Hyde Park, Bryanston and Irene.
