Call (775) 307-6571

This page is for homeowners in Henderson who own a FAAC swing or slide gate operator, noticed something wrong, and want to know what they’re actually dealing with before anyone shows up. If your gate is stuck open, grinding, or refusing to close, call us at (775) 307-6571. A live person answers, day or night. We’re an independent FAAC service provider, not a factory-authorized dealer, which means we make repair decisions based on what’s best for your gate and your wallet, not a parts quota.

How FAAC Products Fail – and How We Fix Them

FAAC builds solid operators, but Henderson’s heat and dust work on them in predictable ways. Here’s what we actually find when we open the cover.

• C720 and C721 swing operators: limit switch drift. These older FAAC workhorses are all over Henderson’s custom-home neighborhoods. The mechanical limit switch assembly wears over time, and the gate starts stopping short or over-traveling past the post. The fix is usually cleaning and recalibrating the switch, not replacing the board. We see this misdiagnosed as a control board failure fairly often, which costs homeowners real money.
• S450H slide operators: magnetic lock sensor failure in dusty conditions. Henderson’s wind-driven dust infiltrates the sensor that tells the operator the mag lock is engaged. The gate stalls or reverses mid-cycle. We clean and seal the sensor housing, then verify the loop detector still reads vehicle presence correctly. Most shops throw a new sensor at it; sealing keeps it from coming back in eight months.
• E024U control boards: capacitor fatigue from heat cycling. A Henderson summer on an unshaded pad can push the control board enclosure past 140°F daily. Electrolytic capacitors degrade, and the gate starts behaving erratically: opening fine, then refusing to close, or vice versa. We test the board before condemning it. If the board is dead, we quote OEM and quality aftermarket options side by side and let you decide.
• Articulating arm failures on FAAC swing gates. The arm pivot points wear oval after years of use, especially on heavy solid-iron gates. The gate jerks rather than sweeps. We replace the arm assembly and inspect the post bracket at the same time. Replacing the arm without checking the bracket means doing the job twice.
• Hydraulic FAAC operators (400 series): low fluid from slow weep at the fill plug. These are less common in Henderson but show up on larger estates. The gate runs slow, then stops. We top off or rebuild the hydraulic circuit depending on what the fluid condition tells us. Burnt fluid means internal wear; clean fluid means a simple seal fix.

Our FAAC Gate Repair Process

Here’s how a FAAC repair goes from your phone call to a gate that works like it should.

1. 1
   You call, a person answers. No voicemail. You tell us what the gate is doing, or not doing. We schedule a window that works for you.
2. 2
   The technician arrives and diagnoses before touching anything. Our techs are background-checked and uniformed. They open the operator, test the board outputs, run the gate through a cycle, and check the loop detector and safety edges.
3. 3
   You get a written price before any repair starts. The quote lists parts and labor separately. You approve it. The number doesn’t change.
4. 4
   We make the repair with the right parts. For warranty-sensitive components like control boards, we recommend OEM FAAC parts. For mechanical wear items like arms and brackets, we’ll offer a quality aftermarket option when it saves you money without costing reliability. You choose.
5. 5
   We test the gate under load, not just on a bench. The gate cycles multiple times, stops are verified, safety edges are checked, and the auto-close timing is set correctly for your driveway length.
6. 6
   You get the guarantee in writing. Every FAAC repair from Carver Gate Repair Henderson comes with our 365-Day Done Right Promise. If the same repair fails within a year, we come back and fix it at no charge.
