Came Gates Not Closing

[Robin's Nest]

Hi, I have had a set of Came electric gates working for about 2 years. Suddenly one day they began to open ok but they have to be closed manually. If closed electrically they move about an inch whenever the remote control is touched. Any ideas on how to fix this?, thanks.

First place i would check is any photocells or safety devices on the gate and make sure they are working or you could link them out on the circuit to identify the fault. UNDER NO circumstances should you leave the gate working with out safety.

Thank you for your reply.

I have checked the photo cells and these work ok.

When I close the gates manually, one of the gates seem to catch at one of the gate hinges but i cannot see where? Any ideas, thanks.
