We Specialize in Gate Maintenance
Automated security gates are a vital part of keeping your property safe and accessible, but like any piece of mechanical and electrical equipment, they require regular attention. Preventative maintenance ensures your gate operates smoothly and lasts for years to come.
Why Preventive Maintenance Matters
Waiting until a gate fails can lead to unexpected expenses and safety concerns. Small issues, like worn rollers, loose wiring, or dirty sensors, can quickly escalate into major problems if left unchecked. Preventive maintenance identifies and resolves these issues before they disrupt daily operations or compromise security.
There’s no question of the importance of regular maintenance of all makes and models of industrial, commercial, and residential gate systems. Trinity Gate provides expert service in Redmond, Kirkland, Bellevue, Seattle, Enumclaw, and the surrounding areas.

*Yearly price when paid in full up front.
**Pricing is based on the number of gate operators, not the number of gates. A site with a bi-parting gate (two operators) or separate entrance and exit gates will cost more than a single-operator site.
Multi-gate sites, HOAs, and commercial properties fall outside the standard tiers and get custom pricing.
Hourly rates apply where noted on the full plan terms.
