Jericho’s gate work is shaped by the housing stock built here between the 1960s and 1990s: long driveways, custom wood and wrought iron gates, and motors that were installed when the house went up. Snow, salt air from Long Island Sound, and freeze-thaw cycles mean we see corroded hinges, seized slide tracks, and dead operators on gates that have never been upgraded. If your gate won’t open or your motor quit after the last storm, call (516) 559-4870 and we’ll send a technician who knows Jericho’s specific hardware.
Why Jericho Homes Are Different
Jericho’s gated estates were mostly built in the 1960s through the 1980s, and many were set back from the road on 1 to 2 acre lots. That distance from the street meant the original owners wanted gates that felt substantial: long slide gates on steel tracks, heavy swing gates with ornate hardware, and motors chosen for size over serviceability. Fast forward thirty or forty years, and those original motors are obsolete. The slide gate operators that were common then often lack battery backup, so a winter power outage leaves the gate dead until someone arrives with a manual release key, and many homeowners never received one at closing. In the Hamlet of Jericho and the surrounding streets, long tree-lined driveways also mean debris and leaf litter work into the tracks, and we regularly see rotted wood panels on gates that were originally built with the house.
The climate does the rest. Harsh winters with freeze-thaw cycles force water into hinge pins and motor housings, where it expands and cracks seals. Humid summers and salt air off the Sound accelerate rust on wrought iron and aluminum hardware. A gate that worked fine in October often fails in February because corrosion built up quietly for months. When we walk a Jericho property, we look for the original operator first, because that’s usually where the failure started.
Styles & brands we work with
Our Main Jericho Services
The two calls we hear most from Jericho are about gates that stopped moving and motors that died after a storm. Both are covered below, along with full installations for homeowners replacing an old gate system.
Gate Repair in Jericho
Most Jericho gate repairs start with the same diagnosis: an original slide or swing system that has been working for decades and finally seized. We replace worn hinge pins, straighten sagging gate frames, repair broken welds, and fit new hardware to existing posts. On the long driveway gates common west of Route 106, we also check track alignment and clear debris that has packed into the channel over the years. Every repair is quoted in writing before we open the gate up, and the work carries our written guarantee for a full year. See what’s covered on our Gate Repair in Jericho page.
Gate Installation in Jericho
New gate installations in Jericho usually mean replacing a 30 or 40 year old slide gate with a modern system that has battery backup, safety edges, and a motor sized for the gate’s weight. We measure the driveway opening, check the existing posts, and account for the freeze-thaw ground movement that shifts concrete pads over time. The written quote includes all hardware, the operator, and the labor to set the gate, run the power, and program the remotes. Details on the process are on our Gate Installation in Jericho page.
Gate Motor Repair in Jericho
When a Jericho gate motor hums but won’t move, or trips its breaker, or works intermittently, the problem is usually the limit switch, the capacitor, or a gear that stripped inside a unit that is long past its expected life. We repair or replace motors and operators on nine major brands, including the older models still bolted to Jericho’s original gate posts. Because many of these systems have no manual release, we carry the tools to free a gate on-site before we diagnose. For motor-specific repair details, visit Gate Motor Repair in Jericho.
