Automatic gates and garage doors make life easier — but only if they’re wired safely and correctly.
We install, rewire, and repair electrical connections for gate and garage motors across Bulawayo.
From driveway motors in Hillside and Burnside to roller doors in the CBD and North End, we provide clean power points, proper isolators, and neat conduit routing.
We also add surge protection to prevent control board failure when power returns after load-shedding.
If your motor trips the breaker, shocks when touched, or stops after storms, the issue is often earthing or water ingress.
We diagnose, rewire, and re-seal to keep it running smoothly.
For new builds, we coordinate with your builder or gate installer to ensure cables are run in the correct position before plastering or paving.
That prevents messy surface conduits later.
We cover Parklands, Montrose, Bradfield, and nearby suburbs daily — offering same-day call-outs for faults and new power points.
Expect safe, tidy work that lasts through Bulawayo’s weather and grid conditions.
FAQs
1) Can I plug my gate motor into an extension cord?
Not recommended. Gate motors need a fixed connection with proper isolation and surge protection. Extensions often cause voltage drops and trip hazards.
2) My gate motor stopped after a power surge — can you fix it?
Yes. We’ll test the motor board, fuse, and supply wiring. In many cases, fitting surge protection and correcting earthing prevents future damage.
3) Do you install new power points for gate motors?
Yes. We run a dedicated cable from the DB or nearest distribution point with its own isolator and breaker, rated for outdoor conditions.
4) How can I protect my garage motor from power cuts?
We can integrate a small backup battery or connect the motor circuit to your inverter (if capacity allows). We’ll assess what makes sense for your setup.
5) Do you fix wiring damaged by weather or garden work?
Yes. Damaged conduit or exposed joints are common after renovations or rain. We reroute cables neatly and re-seal joints for long-term safety.
6) Can you handle multiple motors at one property?
Absolutely. We connect and label each motor clearly at the DB — useful for homes, complexes, or businesses with several gates or roller doors.
