FAAC is an Italian company founded in Zola Predosa, near Bologna, whose name began as the Italian for factory of automatic gate opening. It works in gate and barrier automation, automatic entrances and doors, parking systems and access control. Qasar Al Neil Automatic Doors installs, repairs and maintains FAAC systems in Abu Dhabi as an independent service company, not as a representative of the manufacturer.
FAAC operators on villas and compounds are typically electromechanical or hydraulic units on swing and sliding gates. Hydraulic swing operators are common on heavy leaves and their typical faults are oil seepage, a pump that runs without pushing, or a leaf that creeps. Electromechanical units fail at the gearbox, motor or limit settings.
Barriers at residential towers, offices and parking entrances see constant cycles. We look at the balance spring, the drive, the arm and its mount, and the loop detector or ticket system signal that tells the barrier when to lift. Our boom barrier and parking management pages explain the full setup.
Many gate complaints are not the motor at all. A photocell lens covered in dust, a sensor wire cut by landscaping, or a board input damaged by a surge will stop a gate closing. We test each in turn. Read more about control panels and photocell safety sensors, plus remotes and receivers.
We survey the gate type, weight, post strength and supply before choosing an operator. Servicing checks hydraulic or mechanical condition, lubrication, hinges and wheels, release, limit settings, safety devices and a full obstruction test.
Typical jobs include:
See the main gates and gate motors pages, and our notes on Beninca and CAME. A free site visit lets a technician examine the operator and the gate together.

View detailsA small seep at a fitting or seal can often be repaired by replacing the seal or tightening the connection and topping up the oil. A heavy leak with a leaf that no longer holds position suggests worn internal parts. We clean the unit, find the leak source, check the oil level and test how well the leaf holds against pushing.
Whether replacement parts can be obtained depends on the model, so we confirm that on site before suggesting repair.
This is nearly always the safety circuit. A photocell with a dirty or misaligned lens, a damaged cable, or a safety edge that has been pressed will tell the board to refuse closing. Some boards also have a setting that stops auto-close after an obstruction was sensed.
You can wipe the photocell lenses and check that nothing blocks the beam. If the gate still will not close, a technician will test each safety input on the board to find which one is open.
A barrier arm that bounces on lifting or sags afterwards usually has a balancing issue. The spring may have weakened, the arm may have been replaced with a different length or weight, or an accessory such as a skirt or lights has changed the load. A worn drive part can also let the arm fall.
We check the spring tension, arm weight, drive and mounting, and rebalance it so the arm holds at any point of travel.
That depends on how many cycles the gate performs. A busy compound entrance with hundreds of passages a day wears faster than a private villa gate. As a guide, busy sites benefit from regular scheduled visits, and villas from a yearly check before the hot season.
A visit covers lubrication, hinges or wheels, hydraulic or gearbox condition, limit settings, safety devices and the release. We will suggest a visit interval after seeing your gate.
Tell us the gate type (sliding, swing or barrier), roughly how old it is and what the fault looks like. If you can, send a photo of the operator and its label. Note any recent events such as a power cut, a vehicle hit or building work near the gate.
Keep the area around the gate clear and have the remotes and any keypad ready, so we can test every way of operating it.
A boom barrier arm that has been hit by a vehicle is usually bent rather than fully broken, and a mild bend in an aluminium or fibreglass arm can sometimes be straightened. A sharp bend, a crack, or damage near the mounting bracket is a safety risk and the arm should be replaced rather than repaired.
We also check the barrier's mechanism and counterweight spring after any impact, since a bent arm can throw off the balance even if the arm itself still looks usable.
Send us a WhatsApp message or use the quote form with your location and the door or gate type. We will then arrange a site visit to measure and advise.
Include the area, such as Al Khalidiyah, Saadiyat Island or Al Reem Island, plus photos and approximate dimensions if you have them. During the visit we check structure, power and access, then follow with a written quotation. You can also call +971 50 494 8667. Browse our gates and automatic doors first.
Yes, we provide annual maintenance contracts in Abu Dhabi for automatic doors, gates, shutters and barriers. Plans cover scheduled inspections, sensor calibration, lubrication and priority breakdown support.
A contract suits shops in Al Khalidiyah and Al Nahyan, apartment buildings in Saadiyat Island and warehouses in the industrial areas, where downtime costs money. Tell us what you have installed and how heavily it is used, and we will propose a plan. See our automatic doors and rolling shutters.
