Neptune Electrical & Technology

Your gate stopped working? Most people blame the motor. Sometimes it’s the board, a fuse or rock on the track.

Got called out to a property today, the gate had completely shut down. No movement, no beeps, nothing.

Pulled the housing open and it was obvious straight away.

The old control board was cooked. Ant damage had gotten into the components and moisture had done the rest. Out here in the Top End, if it’s not the wet season humidity getting into your gear it’s the dry season ants looking for somewhere to nest. Electronics cop it from both sides. 🐜

Swapped the board out for a new one, ran through the programming, set the force limits and tested the remotes.

Gate back to full operation. Happy customer. ✅

If your gate is doing anything out of the ordinary, get it looked at before it dies completely. A board swap is a straightforward fix. A full motor replacement is a much bigger cost.

📲 DM us or call 08 8941 9784 we service and repair gate motors across Darwin.

The team was out recently helping our mates at NT Blinds wire up a motorised shutter for a front door and let's just say the job site had one of the better views in Darwin.

This is what we love about the work no two days are the same, and sometimes you end up on a waterfront property with Darwin Harbour sitting right behind the ute.

The shutter install was clean and straightforward. Power sorted, motor wired, customer stoked.

Big shoutout to the crew at NT Blinds love working alongside quality tradies to get the full job done right for the customer. 🤝

If you've got a motorised gate, shutter, or door motor that needs wiring up that's our thing.

Turns out the most valuable person on site today wasn't the electrician OR the plumber.
It was this little legend right here. 👇
While the boys at Hally's Plumbing & Gas were out here digging trenches in the Darwin dirt, our on-site electrical supervisor showed up to make sure the job was done properly.
Watching closely and pointing her finger. Zero tolerance for sloppy trench work.
She hasn't passed her licence yet but honestly, her site supervision skills are better than most I've seen. 😂
Shoutout to the crew at Hallys for being good sports and letting Neptune's quality control team do their thing.
When the electrician and the plumber work together, great homes get built. 🏡⚡🔧
When a small supervisor gets involved… great content gets made. 📱
