White Rock Parkade Gate and Door Repair
Many White Rock condos uptown use one shared parkade gate. We repair parkade gates and doors and agree the timing with the strata council or manager.
White Rock pier and beach, White Rock
Parkade door and gate repair in White Rock is mostly for condo towers and low-rises in Uptown White Rock and Five Corners, where buildings share one parkade gate. We fix gates stuck open, doors that reverse or stop, photo eyes, safety edges, remotes, receivers and vehicle damage. Steep, sloped ramps and salt air near the beach add wear. A gate waiting on parts can usually be secured.

One gate for the whole building
Uptown White Rock and Five Corners have a large and growing share of condo towers and low-rise buildings, and many of them use a shared parkade gate or door. Every resident's car goes through it, so it cycles many times a day and wears rollers, hinges, cables and operator parts.
When it sticks open the building isn't secure, and when it won't open residents are stuck. If a part has to be ordered, the gate can in most cases be set closed or run manually. Quotes go to the council or manager, and residents can be told when it will be out of service.
Steep ramps and sloped thresholds
White Rock is steep, and lots are often small with tight access and retaining walls. Parkade ramps often meet the door or gate on a slope, so it doesn't close flat and the seal or bottom edge gaps on one side.
We adjust travel limits and fit seals to the floor. Steep streets above Marine Drive can ice up on cold mornings, and a seal frozen to the ramp can stall the door. Don't let the operator force it.
Sensors, remotes and salt
A gate or door that reverses for no reason usually has a dirty or misaligned photo eye, a worn safety edge, or a travel limit that has drifted. Remote problems often start at the receiver or wiring at the door, and we can usually fix those on the same visit. The access-control company looks after the fob system.
Buildings closer to East Beach, West Beach and Marine Drive take salt spray, so we check for rust on every call. We also serve Surrey, Langley, Delta and New Westminster.

Questions we get
Our parkade gate is stuck open. Can the building be secured?
In most cases the gate can be set to stay closed or run manually until the repair is finished.
Why does the gate reverse part way?
Usually a dirty or misaligned photo eye, a worn safety edge or a drifted travel limit. Those are checked first.
Can you fix residents' remotes?
Many problems start at the receiver or wiring at the gate and can be fixed on the same visit. The access-control company handles the fob system.
Do you work with the strata council?
Yes. Quotes can go to the council or the manager, and residents can be told when the gate will be out of service.
How often should a White Rock parkade gate be serviced?
Parkade gates cycle many times a day. Regular maintenance catches worn rollers, cables and operator parts before they stop the gate.
