Most car park gates use springs to move up and down. A broken gate spring may compromise the ability of the door to open or close. Investigate the gate spring for imbalance, breakage or disconnection. Realign the spring or contact expert service providers to replace broken springs.

Inspect the cables for fraying or signs of impending snapping. Gates that move up and down usually have belts or cables as a precaution.

Once the car is well past the gate, automatic safety sensors are designed to shut automatically. If the sensors are misaligned, this may not happen. Ensure that the sensors are properly aligned for the automated setting to take effect. Also ensure that there is no barrier between the sensors.

Manual car park gates use locks. These locks may get jammed locks. The cause of jamming locks includes old age, broken keys or malfunctioning locks. Contact a professional locksmith to unlock the manual locks. Consider replacing the locks to prevent future inconvenience.
