Safety Measures
At Precision Automatic Gate Repair, we prioritize safety in all our gate installations and repairs. Our commitment to protecting your family and property drives our adherence to industry standards and implementation of advanced safety features.
UL 325 Compliance
We strictly follow UL 325 safety standards in all our gate installations and repairs. With over 800,000 households in Orange County, many with children and pets, these safety standards are critical to preventing the approximately 2,000 gate-related injuries that occur nationally each year. UL 325 is the industry standard that regulates automatic gate systems to prevent entrapment and injury.

All gates installed by our team include mandatory protection devices like photo eyes and edge sensors that stop and reverse gate movement when an obstruction is detected.
We ensure proper entrapment protection is installed in each "zone" where potential hazards exist. This includes both the opening and closing paths of the gate.
Our technicians are thoroughly trained on the latest UL 325 requirements and regularly update their knowledge as standards evolve. We won't compromise on these critical safety measures that protect children, pets, and vehicles.
Safety Sensors and Alarms
Our gate systems include multiple safety features to prevent accidents and unauthorized access. As part of our comprehensive approach to the security needs of Orange County's diverse communities—from high-density urban areas to gated suburban developments—our safety systems are multilayered and redundant. We install advanced photoelectric sensors that create invisible beams across gate openings, immediately stopping and reversing gate movement when interrupted.
Pressure-sensitive edges are mounted on gate surfaces to detect contact, preventing crushing hazards by instantly reversing the gate's direction.
We also offer:
- Battery backup systems that maintain operation during power outages
- Warning lights that activate during gate movement
- Audible alarms that sound before and during operation
- Manual release mechanisms for emergency access
For enhanced security, we install smart monitoring systems that alert you to any unusual activity or maintenance needs. Our safety features comply with all local Orange County regulations and are customized to your specific gate configuration.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does it cost to install an automatic gate in Orange County?
The cost of installing an automatic gate in Orange County typically ranges from $3,000 to $12,000, depending on gate style, materials, size, and automation features. Factors like terrain, distance from power sources, and access control systems will affect the final price. At Precision Automatic Gate Repair, we provide detailed, transparent quotes after a thorough on-site assessment to ensure the solution fits your budget and needs.
How long does an automatic gate installation take in Orange County?
Most residential automatic gate installations in Orange County take 1-3 days to complete, depending on complexity. Simple swing gates may be installed in a single day, while custom designs with extensive automation features could take longer. Our Precision team handles all aspects from permitting to electrical work, providing you with a specific timeline during your consultation based on your property's unique requirements.
What types of automatic gates work best for Orange County properties?
The best automatic gate for your Orange County property depends on your space, budget, and aesthetic preferences. Sliding gates work well for properties with limited driveway space or sloped driveways common in hilly areas like Anaheim Hills. Swing gates offer traditional elegance for wider entrances. For coastal properties in Newport Beach or Laguna Beach, we recommend marine-grade materials to withstand salt air. Our experts evaluate your specific location to recommend the most appropriate solution.
Are automatic gates worth the investment for Orange County homes?
Automatic gates are a valuable investment for Orange County homes, typically increasing property value by 5-10%. Beyond adding curb appeal, they provide enhanced security in a region with significant property value to protect. Many homeowners report lower insurance premiums after installation. With Orange County's favorable climate, properly maintained gates often last 15-20 years, making them a long-term investment in both security and convenience.
How do I maintain my automatic gate in Orange County's coastal climate?
Maintaining automatic gates in Orange County's coastal climate requires regular inspection, lubrication, and cleaning, particularly for properties near the ocean where salt air can accelerate corrosion. We recommend quarterly maintenance that includes lubricating moving parts, checking electrical connections, and cleaning tracks/chains. At Precision, our maintenance plans include specialized treatments for different Orange County microclimates, from coastal Huntington Beach to inland Yorba Linda, extending your gate's lifespan.
Can existing manual gates be converted to automatic gates?
Yes, most existing manual gates in Orange County can be converted to automatic operation. Our technicians evaluate your gate's structural integrity, weight, and swing path to determine the appropriate automation system. The conversion typically takes 1-2 days and includes installing motors, safety features, and access control systems. This option provides the convenience of automation while preserving the aesthetic of your existing gate, often at a lower cost than complete replacement.
