Service/Repair

We install new gates and access systems — and we repair and maintain what you already have. Use, weather, and age all matter; a little preventative work beats a dead gate on a Monday morning.

If the existing install is causing the failures (bad geometry, waterlogged boxes, undersized hardware), we’ll say so and recommend replacement when that’s the honest fix — not another band-aid.

Intermittent problems: they’re easiest to catch in the act. If the gate starts working again before we arrive, tell us — it changes how we diagnose.

Service-call rates

Minimum to show up: $350. That’s the floor for a dispatched service visit. If you’re not sure you need a tech on site, start with our before you call guides or text a clear description/photos to (318) 286-6509 first — don’t burn a trip unless you really need service.

• Show-up / dispatch minimum: $350 (covers the visit; diagnosis included as applicable)
• Weekday residential / service labor after the minimum is met: additional time billed at $125/hr
• Commercial / HOA diagnostic: quoted from the $350 minimum upward as needed
• After-hours / weekend / holiday: 2× rates, 2-hour minimum
• Return trip for parts you already approved: billed as a full standard service call (minimum applies)
• Preventative maintenance is sold separately — a repair call covers the reported issue plus related troubleshooting and safety checks; a full once-over / clean / lube is PM
• Service area: Shreveport & Bossier and about 50 miles around. Outside that, travel may be quoted before we dispatch
• Package prices below are for scheduled maintenance-style visits when scoped ahead; diagnostic/repair dispatches start at the $350 show-up minimum

Example parts costs

Parts are extra when something needs replacing — on top of the service visit. These are ballpark prices for common pieces. Your opener may need something different; we’ll quote the exact part before we buy it.

• New Main board: typically about $500–$800 depending on the opener
• Swing Gate Actuator arm replacement: typically about $650–$1,300 depending on the opener and whether it’s a primary or secondary arm
• Sliding Gate Motor: from $400-$800
• Replacement Remote receiver: about $80-200
• Replacement Antenna: about $100
• Replacement Safety photo eye: about $250-500
• Batteries (typical pair for an actuator box): about $80 — often DIY; we can swap them on a service call too

Boards and receivers are common after lightning, surges, or water in the box. We match what your opener actually uses before ordering.
