Automatic gate repair in South London
A full sliding gate overhaul
Avanti Doors was called to a sliding automatic gate in South London that needed a mechanical and electrical overhaul. Our engineers stripped out the worn running gear and controls, supplied and installed new wheel assemblies, high-level anti-tilt rollers, a motor control panel and communication kit, then recommissioned both gate motors and fitted new safety edges. The project was completed in two working days.
