Orange County Garage Doors Inc. operates a full electric gate division for Orange County — same-day electric gate repair, gate opener & motor repair, and new electric gate installation — backed by California contractor license CSLB #994802 and the same local crews behind our 4.8-star garage door service. We repair and install automatic gates in Newport Beach, Newport Coast, Irvine, Orange, San Juan Capistrano, Laguna Niguel, and every surrounding Orange County city.

Electric Gate Services We Provide

We handle every part of an automatic gate system — the structure, the operator, and the access controls that tie it all together. Our most-requested electric gate services include:

• Electric gate repair — same-day fixes for off-track sliding gates, worn hinges and posts, on-site welding, and photo-eye or loop-detector faults.
• Gate opener & motor repair — everything inside the operator cabinet: motors, gearboxes, control boards, remotes, keypads, and solar openers.
• Electric gate installation — new swing and sliding driveway gates, custom wrought iron and wood, operators, and access control.

Not sure which operator or gate style fits your property? We size every system to its real-world job. A short residential driveway that opens a few times a day needs a very different operator than an apartment entrance cycling hundreds of times a day, and the wrong motor is the number-one reason gates fail early. We match the operator class, gate material, and access controls to how you actually use the entrance, so the system lasts.

Gate Broken? Start Here

If your gate is stuck, off its track, dragging, or refusing to close, our same-day electric gate repair team covers the structure end to end — track and wheels, hinges and posts, on-site welding, and the photo eyes and loop detectors that control closing. If the gate itself is fine but the unit that moves it has died — a humming motor, a dead control board, remotes that stopped responding — that is operator work, handled by gate motor & control board repair. Either way, you get a free on-site estimate and a written quote before any work begins.

Our Gate Installation & Repair Process

We keep the process simple and transparent, whether you are installing a brand-new gate or fixing an existing one:

1. Free on-site consultation & estimate — we visit your property, listen to what you need, and provide a clear written quote at no charge.
2. Design & measure (or diagnose) — for new gates we measure the opening and help you choose style, material, and operator; for repairs we pinpoint the exact fault.
3. Professional installation or repair — licensed technicians install the gate and operator, or complete the repair, using quality parts built to last in Orange County’s coastal climate.
4. Safety test & access programming — we test the auto-reverse and photo-eye safety system, then program your remotes, keypads, and intercom so the gate is ready to use the day we leave.

For HOA and gated-community projects, we are happy to coordinate with property managers and meet community gate and safety standards. After installation, we can also set you up with periodic maintenance — lubrication, sensor checks, and operator tune-ups — which is the single best way to avoid surprise breakdowns and extend the life of an automatic gate in Orange County’s salt-air and sun.

What’s Included

We believe a fair price should include everything you need for a gate that works reliably for years — not a stripped-down quote with surprises added later. Every electric gate project from Orange County Garage Doors Inc. includes:

Electric Gate Cost in Orange County

Gate projects span everything from a single operator repair to a fully custom fabricated entry – which is why we quote rather than publish one-size prices. For repairs, the technician diagnoses on site and you approve a written quote before any work begins. For installations, the site visit produces a detailed written proposal – gate, operator, access control, and timeline itemized, one total price, approved by you before anything is built.

A Real Gate Repair From Our Crew

A sliding gate in Old Towne Orange failed “suddenly” — but the failure was years in the making. The roller bearings, ground track, and drive chain had all worn toward the same moment, and the gate finally derailed mid-cycle. Replacing the complete drive system, rather than one part at a time, gave the homeowner a gate that runs quietly and reliably again. See the full case study with before-and-after photos and video.
