Warranty

Every product manufactured by the different brands of automatic gate operators and accessories that we install are built to high standards out of the highest quality materials available and have been thoroughly tested to assure you that your product will last for many years.

However, sometimes electrical and mechanical devices fail, and for that reason there are outstanding warranties provided by these companies. All of our products carry a genuine factory warranty for a period 24 months, excluding batteries and labor.

The manufacturer's warranty covers only defective parts.

The manufacturer warranty does not cover the cost to dispatch a technician for a service call to make repairs to gate opener equipment.

BFT OFFICIAL WARRANTY

VIKING ACCESS SYSTEM WARRANTY

WARRANTY BASICS:

All gate operators come with a manufacture warranty, each company has their own policy, but the basics are:

1. Manufacture Warranty:

Manufacturer warranty only covers defective parts for a limited time.

2. Cost of Labor:

Labor cost is never covered under the manufacture warranty.

3. North Georgia Gate Company will provide a 90 (ninety) day workmanship warranty:

To the party named on the contract the warranty becomes effective the day the job is completed provided the contracted price of said job has been paid in full. Workmanship warranty does not cover acts of nature, damage by motor vehicles, vandalism or any other damage caused by anyone / anything other than workmanship error which may have occurred at the time of installation.

WARRANTIES DO NOT COVER ELECTRICAL POWER SURGE DAMAGE CAUSED BY LIGHTENING OR SURGES GENERATED FROM THE POWER COMPANY GRID.

Surge Protection:

North Georgia Gate Co. will install a surge protector to help prevent power grid surge and lightning damage as part of the original installation package. 

N. GA. Gate Co. uses a high quality suppressor that will be sacrificed during an electrical power surge or lightning strike and prevent damage to the expensive gate opener electronics. Once sacrificed, electricity will be shut off to the gate opener control box and the surge suppressor will need to be replaced to resume operation.

The surge suppressor is not covered under warranty. To replace a sacrificed surge suppressor will cost $140 for a new suppressor plus a $250 service call fee.

Solar powered gate openers do not receive surge suppression protection because they are not hooked up to the electrical power grid and therefore are not subject to electrical surges.

COST OF SERVICE CALLS:

A $250.00 fee per service call is charged to the owner and the service fee will include:

1. Trouble Shooting:

Diagnostic troubleshooting of the electronic gate opener.

2. Labor:

One hour labor cost (each additional hour at $75.00 each, including drive time). Most repairs can be complete within the first hour.

3. Parts

Parts that are covered under manufacture limited warranty. ( If warranty has expired, replacement parts will be charged to the owner at the same cost North Georgia Gate Co. paid to the manufacturer for said replacement parts.

The manufacturer does not pay North Georgia Gate Co. to make service calls.
