What makes Linear different to work on

Knowing how a manufacturer’s equipment actually behaves is the difference between a targeted repair and a replacement quote.

Widely installed and well supported

Linear operators are common on residential driveways and smaller commercial entrances. They are conventional in design, well supported, and economical to repair — which means replacement is very rarely the right recommendation.

Typical faults

Boards, capacitors, limit switches and receivers account for the large majority of Linear service calls. Receiver and remote faults in particular are among the least expensive repairs in the trade and are worth ruling out before anything else is considered.

Battery backup

On battery-backed Linear units, a gate that fails after a few cycles during a power outage is reporting a tired battery rather than an operator fault. Batteries are consumables with a finite life.

Linear parts and availability

“We’d have to order that” discovered on the day is how a same-visit repair becomes two visits. Here is what we actually carry.

  • Boards, capacitors, limit switches and receivers: readily available.
  • Remotes and keypads: commonly carried.

Linear repair questions

My Linear remote stopped working but the keypad is fine. What is wrong?

Almost always the receiver or the remote itself rather than the operator. This is one of the quickest and least expensive repairs we do.

Almost always the receiver or the remote itself rather than the operator. It is one of the quickest and least expensive repairs we do, and nothing mechanical needs touching.
