Appalling service have been requesting a service on my gates for the 3 years after using this company previously with no response
We had an issue with the gates 2 weeks ago which they came out looked at and told me they were seized due to lack of service and did not comply to health and safety!! This firstly is untrue as it is at a domestic property and they also quoted 4500 to repair which when I inspected myself as I am an engineer the motors were not seized so to me it is apparent that over quoting on unnecessary work needed is going on here
My advice Stay clear

We used YEG to replace our existing gates. We found them polite, efficient, competent and accommodating. Due to the Pandemic the installation was not without its hiccups, none of which were YEGs fault, yet they more than stepped up to the plate and I would strongly recommend them.
