We repair Ghost Controls swing gate operators across Yorba Linda, and we do it differently than a parts-swapper would. The quick answer: yes, we service Ghost Controls AXS, TDS, and V-series operators on Yorba Linda’s horse properties and hillside estates, and we’re usually on site within one business day. What makes our Ghost Controls work here distinct is that we treat the clay footing, the hinge load, and the operator as one system. Call (844) 703-6053 for a free estimate.
Why Yorba Linda Residents Choose Us for Ghost Controls Service
Manor Gate Repair handles Ghost Controls operators as an independent service provider, not a factory-authorized shop. That distinction matters more than most people realize. We’re not bound to a warranty script, so we can tell you honestly whether a Ghost Controls unit is worth saving or whether a new arm and better post anchoring gets you five more years. Nelson Pryce, our owner and lead technician, grew up off Boulder Avenue and has spent two decades diagnosing gate failures that other techs misread. A gate that hesitates is a gate that’s telling you something. The job is to listen before you wrench.
We carry Ghost Controls OEM control boards, arms, and limit hardware for the AXS and TDS lines, and we stock quality aftermarket batteries and solar regulators where OEM equivalents don’t hold up any better in Yorba Linda’s heat. We’re not tied to a single brand, either. We service LiftMaster, FAAC, BFT, Linear, Viking, DoorKing, Elite, and Mighty Mule alongside Ghost Controls, which means we diagnose the actual fault instead of steering you toward a replacement because that’s all we know. If you’re looking for Ghost Controls sales & service, we’re the independent team that works on the brand you already have.
Yorba Linda isn’t a tract-home market. Drive through 92886 or 92887 and you’ll see custom wrought-iron driveway gates on long setbacks, many of them Ghost Controls-operated, many of them on posts that have moved with the seasons. We know those gates, and we know what happens to them in August and February.

Common Ghost Controls Gate Repair Problems We Solve in Yorba Linda
- Phantom obstruction faults on hot afternoons. Santa Ana summers bake the control-board enclosure while the clay footing shrinks. The board reads the shift as an obstruction and reverses the gate at the same time every afternoon. We test the board, the solar regulator, and the post together, not one at a time.
- Bent swing arms and sheared actuator mounts. Heavy wrought-iron leaves on 92887 hillside driveways put more load on a Ghost Controls arm than the operator was sized for. The arm bends or the mount shears. We re-check the gate weight and hinge load before replacing the arm, because putting a new arm on an under-supported leaf just bends it again.
- Battery and solar charging failures. Aging 12V batteries stop holding charge through hot, dry stretches. A gate that opens once and then stalls closed is almost always a battery-and-panel issue, not a motor failure. We test both together before recommending anything.
- Limit and arm-mount drift after winter rains. Yorba Linda’s clay swells when the rains come. Posts shift, the gate no longer fully opens, or it reverses mid-travel on the Ghost Controls board. Re-teaching the limits works temporarily, but re-plumbing the post is usually the actual fix.
- Equestrian gate failures on bridle-path frontage. On horse-zoned parcels, the gate may be the only barrier between livestock and the trail. A failed operator there can’t wait a week. We prioritize these calls and make the gate operable or latched manually the same visit.
Ghost Controls Service in Yorba Linda: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Here’s what most gate companies miss about Yorba Linda. The hillside parcels in 92887 and the older ranch lots off the bridle-path streets sit on expansive clay that shrinks hard in the dry season and swells when it rains. A single driveway gate that sags toward the latch side is usually not a hinge problem. It’s a concrete footing that was poured in clay that has moved. We routinely re-pour and re-plumb footings before touching the Ghost Controls operator, because a board that worked fine can start throwing obstruction codes when the post it’s bolted to has drifted an inch out of plumb. On a recent 92887 job — similar to Ghost Controls in Brea — an AXS dual-swing operator had started reversing halfway open every hot afternoon. The arm had bent fighting a leaf that had drifted, and the footing had lifted out of the clay. We re-poured the post, replaced the arm and battery, and re-taught the limits. It’s run clean through two Santa Ana seasons since.
This is the information gain no generic Ghost Controls page will give you: in Yorba Linda, the operator fault is often downstream of the dirt. Fix the dirt first, then the board.
Ghost Controls Models & Products We Service in Yorba Linda
We work on the Ghost Controls Architectural Series (AXS) dual swing operator, the Heavy-Duty Series (TDS) single swing opener, and the V-Series (VDS) DIY swing gate kit. We also service Ghost Controls solar-charged DC swing packages with tube-gate arms, which we see often on Yorba Linda’s horse properties and for Ghost Controls service in Villa Park. For parts, we use Ghost Controls OEM control boards, arms, and hardware where they fit the existing mount. For batteries, solar regulators, and safety edges, we use quality aftermarket equivalents where OEM adds cost without adding reliability in this climate. We keep common Ghost Controls parts and 12V batteries on hand for faster Yorba Linda turnaround, which means fewer trips back to the shop when your gate is down.

FAQs – Ghost Controls Gate Repair in Yorba Linda
No. Manor Gate Repair is an independent Ghost Controls service provider. We’re not authorized, endorsed, or warranty-backed by Ghost Controls. What that means for you: we diagnose the actual fault and fix what’s broken instead of steering you toward a full system replacement to satisfy a manufacturer program. We use Ghost Controls OEM parts where they matter and quality aftermarket parts where they don’t.
We use Ghost Controls OEM control boards, arms, and limit hardware where they fit the existing mount, and we use quality aftermarket batteries, solar regulators, and safety edges where OEM equivalents don’t add reliability. On a Yorba Linda gate we always check the footing and hinge load before swapping any part. Replacing a functional Ghost Controls unit on a sagging post just burns out the replacement. Call (844) 703-6053 and we’ll tell you what your gate actually needs.
Most board, battery, and limit issues are diagnosed and repaired in a single visit, typically 90 minutes to two hours. Jobs that require re-pouring a shifted post or replacing a bent arm on a heavy wrought-iron leaf take longer because the concrete or the gate geometry has to be reworked, not just the electronics. We’ll give you a straight time estimate before we start.
We service the Architectural Series (AXS) dual swing operator, the Heavy-Duty Series (TDS) single swing opener, the V-Series (VDS) DIY swing kit, and Ghost Controls solar-charged DC swing packages with tube-gate arms. If you have an older Ghost Controls unit that’s no longer in the current catalog, call us anyway. We diagnose by behavior and board layout, not by model-year lookup tables.
Yes. We add wired and wireless keypads, intercom systems, and vehicle exit sensors to existing Ghost Controls swing operators. The integration depends on your current board revision and receiver, and we’ll confirm compatibility before quoting so you don’t pay for hardware that won’t talk to your operator. Call (844) 703-6053 for a free compatibility check and estimate.
Most repairs run $180 to $340 for the call, diagnosis, and a straightforward fix. Board and arm replacements run $400 to $900. Post re-pours run $600 to $1,800.
