Why Every Gate Brand Fails in Arizona Heat

The Truth: LiftMaster, Viking, DoorKing, Linear, NICE—every major gate brand designs their products for moderate climates (70-100°F). Arizona's summer heat exceeds their engineering specifications by 20-40°F.

This isn't "normal wear and tear"—it's systematic heat damage that kills gates in 4-6 years instead of their rated 10-15 year lifespan.

115°F Ambient Temp

Phoenix hits 118-122°F every summer. Gate motors in direct sun reach 140-160°F internally—far exceeding rated limits.

Standard Grease Melts

Petroleum-based lubricants liquefy at 110-120°F. They drip out, leaving metal-on-metal grinding that destroys gears.

Electronics Fry

Capacitors, circuit boards, and sensors degrade 2-3× faster in extreme heat. Monsoon power surges finish them off.
