Automatic Door Repair Near Gloucester – Motor Replacement Restores Entrance System
The Gatemen team recently attended a service call near Gloucester where a set of automatic entrance doors had become stuck open, creating a security concern for the property. When automatic doors fail to close properly, they can cause disruption to businesses and compromise the safety and security of a building.

Our engineers responded promptly to inspect the automatic door system and identify the cause of the fault.
Diagnosing the Automatic Door Fault
Upon arrival, our engineer carried out a full inspection of the automatic door operator, sensors and control systems. The doors were activating correctly but were failing to close, leaving the entrance system stuck open.
After diagnosing the system, the problem was traced to a faulty automatic door motor. When the door motor fails, it can prevent the automatic doors from completing their opening and closing cycle, leaving them stuck in the open position.
Fast Return Visit With Replacement Motor
To resolve the issue quickly, Gatemen arranged a return visit the following day with a replacement automatic door motor. Our engineer removed the damaged motor and installed a new unit, ensuring the system was correctly aligned and operating safely.
Once installed, the automatic door system was fully tested to confirm:
Smooth opening and closing operation
Correct response to motion sensors
Safe and reliable operation of the entrance system
The repair restored the automatic doors to full working condition.
Restoring Security to the Property
With the new motor installed, the automatic doors were once again able to close securely, restoring controlled access and maintaining security for the property.
This repair highlights the importance of having experienced engineers who can quickly diagnose automation faults and carry out professional repairs.
