David replaced a failed gate opener for us. It was a heavy long gate that needed to close uphill. The device we inherited with the house was underpowered and failed. His experience and expertise got us an industrial powered unit that has run flawlessly. He came in the early evening and worked with a headlamp to get the job done. His warranty is real and he has come back twice to correct minor issues. Rarely do you find such and honorable and responsive individual! Highly recommended! read more

Our gate wasn't working properly, so they came by and did a free inspection/estimate. They quickly diagnosed the problem as a bad radio and offered me three price ranges to replace it from 500, 900, and in the four digit range...that was just parts and didn't include labor. He kindly explained all the different options and suggested going with the middle option plus labor would bring it up to 1200. When we said that would be way out of our price range, he tried to offer discounts and payment plans, but it was just out of our budget so we politely declined and said we had to think about it. After a quick google search for how much new radios cost, none of them cost that much and even the most expensive and overkill models were still less than 200 bucks. The radio was also not the ultimate problem with our gate opener. These guys were quick to respond, arrived when they said they would, and were very kind and courteous...but that's where the positives end. I'm sure they do good work, depending on what it is, but beware of their questionable pricing. read more

Dear Yelpers, This is a review for the "initial inspection" of a motorized roller shutter door. To be clear, I did not pay for any services. There are several 5 star reviews. No doubt, they are a capable organization. This review merely expresses my opinion after the the first visit. I called Gates Express because I have a motorized commercial roller shutter door that stopped working. To their credit, they were quick to offer a visit in only a few days. The workman came at the scheduled time and I described the situation to him. He began to visually inspect the electronic door controller by pressing a few buttons, checking the fuses, etc. It certainly wasn't a very technical inspection as I was hoping for. After a couple minutes it appeared to me that he didn't know anymore than I did. He also didn't even care to look at the motor. He quoted me two options, $2,950 for repair, and $4,750 for replacing the controller and motor, if necessary. Given that I wasn't convinced that he knew what was wrong, I was very skeptical. I told him I had to think about it and also talk with my partner about it. He asked me if the price was the issue, and if it was possible I could talk to my partner now. I started to feel slightly annoyed. After he left, I decided to fiddle around with the control board and only after a few minutes I discovered that it only needed re-programming. I'm so glad I didn't have to pay almost $3k for something I figured out on my own. I had similar experiences as Marion S, Linda R (hidden section), and Katie P (hidden section). Their reviews are below. read more

Our condo building's vintage garage gate opener was on the fritz and turns out our old chain was broken and the first company told us that we had to replace the entire motor and opener assembly at a cost of more than $5,000! Then we found David at Gates & Garage Doors Express and he boldly stated that he would be by in the morning and he was sure that he could fix the gate opener without having to replace the entire motor. Gates express showed up on time, as scheduled, and was in fact able to repair the gate opener and fix the broken chain using original parts that he had both in stock but also with him! His repairs and quality work both saved us thousands of dollars, but got our gate up and running that very same day. David is punctual, knowledgeable, friendly, and thorough. Very professional service provider and I highly recommend him. read more

I was told that my gate needed a new motor and that it would cost $950 even though I suspected that my gate could be repaired for $450 because it cost me $450 for the same issue plus a new chain. However, David insisted that it needed a new motor and that it cost more for a replacement of the motor. Still, I thought it would be better to put a new motor for $950 and then maybe it wouldn't need to be repaired again in the future so I said okay. David took out a new motor and laid it down by my Ramsey box, but then he repaired my old motor and still charged me the cost of a new one. He claimed that he said was that he'd get it running either way for $950 with or without a new motor. I said that's not what I agreed to; then, he said that the motor that he laid out wasn't compatible with what was in my box and that to make it work he'd have to change a lot more for additional items so it would cost more than the $950 to make work with a new motor. This approach is very misleading to a customer and I believe he did it on purpose as to extract $950 while using my same parts. I had agreed to the new motor and he made me think that it would cost $950 since he said that that was the problem. If it wasn't compatible why had he even pulled out a new motor and told me that he had all the parts to get my gate running again. My gate was stuck on open, which was why I hired him. He also said that he'd charge me in two payments. After forgetting to charge me the second payment of $150 on the month that we agreed upon (Feb 6th), he calls me up today and says that I owed him the balance ($150) amount 2 days ago and that I failed to pay him. How's that? He had all my information to charge me on the agreed upon date. It's not like I can charge myself. In the email (see attachment) of the receipt he sent me on the 29th of Jan. It contains ALL of my credit card information and the date he was supposed to charge me the 2nd payment of $150. It is so detailed I had to black it out to include the receipt. If I got hacked my credit card info would be vulnerable as he put all of it on the receipt so that he would charge me the 2nd payment. This is NOT professional nor is it secure. David even went so far as to leaving himself two reviews with my own phone! I truly wanted to do my own reviews and on my own time so I could be honest about my experience with Gate Express, but David pressured me to do it right at that moment. I was going to just write a short review, but he said he'd show me how quick it was to access the places for the reviews. He made me log on in. I was too embarrassed to refuse him, and shocked as I watched him saying that he'd do them for me to *save me the time*. I let it go and figured his Karma would one day catch up to him. I feel it is important for a client to relay how they feel about someone's work and experience. I believe that David was dissembling his true intent and using double speak to confuse me about his true intentions. I truly believe he overcharged me and took advantage of me because I am a woman. I will never use him again. Furthermore, I could referred him many future clients because I soon will be working in real estate and it is important to be able to refer your clients to honest repair people, but after what I experienced that will never happen with Gate Express. read more

I cannot say enough great things about this company! I am thoroughly satisfied and happy with the service. I had to have the gate pad replaced suddenly in the middle of the night because it died on me unexpectedly and all our cars were locked in the driveway. I called during the holiday evening hour and did not expect them to be available, but I was surprised they came within a couple of hours! The technician came with everything prepared and figured out exactly what was wrong and explained to me so patiently (I am not very knowledgeable about the gate and his explanation helped me understand). He understood our concerns and was willing to be flexible and accommodating. I was super impressed when he said he would make himself available the very next morning to replace everything and everything was taken care of within 12 hours of our first contact and our gate is brand new again! We feel very safe and secure. We appreciate the service and I highly recommend it! read more
