We provide independent Ghost Controls repair and service across Strathmore, CA. What makes our Ghost Controls work different here is simple: most of these openers sit on rural driveways without reliable grid power, so solar and battery failures are the routine call, not the exception. We’re an independent Ghost Controls service provider, not affiliated with or authorized by the manufacturer. Our technicians have up to 14 years of experience. Call (844) 702-1433 and we’ll diagnose the real problem. We answer 24/7. Fast dispatch from 7am to 7pm, Sunday through Friday.
Why Strathmore Residents Choose Us for Ghost Controls Service
We service Ghost Controls systems every working day. That daily repetition matters: we know how these openers behave in dust, heat, and rural power setups because we see it constantly in Strathmore and the farm roads around it. If your arm binding, battery dying, or keypad acting up, we’ve likely seen the same symptom this week.
Our familiarity with Ghost Controls equipment means we don’t guess at the arm geometry, control board layout, or battery behavior. We test the actual part, not the whole opener. Quality parts that fit the unit get sourced for the repair, not for a sales quota.
Scheduling is straightforward. Tell us what’s happening, and we’ll book a visit. We answer 24/7. Fast dispatch from 7am to 7pm, Sunday through Friday. No runaround, no vague timelines. Free estimates, and the price is quoted and agreed before any work starts.

Common Ghost Controls Gate Repair Problems We Solve in Strathmore
- Arm binding and limit switch drift from dust. On a long gravel driveway, valley dust packs into the drive screw and pivot points. The arm starts dragging, and the limits drift until the gate stops partway or overshoots. We clean, lubricate, and re-teach the limits.
- Battery and solar charge failures in summer heat. Strathmore routinely sees summer highs over 100°F. Older lead-acid batteries swell and lose capacity, so the gate runs a few cycles and dies. We load-test the battery and check the panel’s actual output.
- Control board faults from seasonal fog. Winter fog and temperature swings cycle condensation inside the housing. Eventually that means false obstruction faults or a board that won’t respond. We diagnose the board before suggesting a swap.
- Remote and keypad signal loss. Metal barns and shops block signal on rural parcels, and aging receiver modules often can’t carry the distance. We sort out whether it’s the receiver, the remote, or the site’s geometry.
- Bent arms and hinge sag from equipment traffic. Farm trucks and heavy equipment clip gate frames, and hinge posts sag under the load. We repair hinges and posts, and we rebuild the arm’s alignment where it can be saved.
Ghost Controls Service in Strathmore: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Here’s the Strathmore-specific reality that shapes most of our Ghost Controls calls: many properties sit on private farm roads off the county grid, so openers here often run on solar and battery backup instead of mains power. That makes charging faults a routine service call, not an afterthought. On a typical Strathmore ranch driveway, a dual-swing opener starts hesitating or reversing midway after a few summers. The arm pivots are packed with orchard dust, and the battery no longer holds a charge through a 100°F day. A qualified local pro cleans and lubricates the arm, tests the solar panel output, replaces the battery if it fails a load test, and re-teaches the limit settings. Usually that resolves the symptom without replacing the whole opener. If your gate drags on a gravel drive or won’t roll clean through a foggy morning, that’s the pattern. Call (844) 702-1433 for a free estimate.
Ghost Controls Models & Products We Service in Strathmore
We service the Ghost Controls line across Strathmore, including the Heavy-Duty Dual Swing Gate Opener (TDS2), the Single Swing Gate Opener (TS1), the Solar-Compatible Gate Opener (AKS1), and the Tubular Arm Opener (TDS1). That covers dual-leaf driveways, single entry gates, and arm-driven swing systems on rural parcels.
Parts choice is a judgment call, not a default. We use OEM Ghost Controls boards, arms, and batteries when they’re available and cost-effective, and we’ll spec quality aftermarket equivalents for wear items like rollers and hinges when OEM pricing is disproportionate. If an opener has a failed board on an otherwise solid gate, we often repair it. If the arm is bent and the housing is cracked from equipment impact, replacement is the honest call. We don’t push a new unit to protect a dealer relationship, because we’re not a dealer.

- Arm cleaning, lubrication, and limit re-teaching: quoted per job.
- Control board diagnosis and repair: quoted per job.
