The job, start to finish

Where it started

Along the sidewalk, a bent post had let the fence sag, and the driveway gate itself was bent off its line.

What we did

We took the damaged gate off, cleared the opening, and set new posts in concrete. Then the gate was rebuilt to close square across the driveway, and the fence run along the sidewalk was pulled back into line.

  • Damaged gate removed
  • New posts set in concrete
  • Gate rebuilt to close square across the driveway
  • Fence line along the sidewalk straightened

How it turned out

One afternoon of work: the gate closes straight and the fence stands upright again.

Questions we get about jobs like this

Can you repair my gate if another company installed it?

Yes. We work on all major brands (LiftMaster, DoorKing, Nice/Apollo, FAAC, Viking, Linear, Chamberlain/Elite, Mighty Mule, HySecurity) and on custom-fabricated gates with no brand at all. Parts availability is the only real limit, and we'll tell you before any work starts if your operator is discontinued and what that means for the repair.

A car hit my gate. Repair or replace?

More gates are repairable than people expect. Bent pickets and panels can be cut out and re-fabricated in our shop, and a racked frame can often be straightened and re-hung on new hinges. Full replacement usually only makes sense when the frame is twisted out of square or the hinge posts have shifted in their concrete. We photograph and document the damage so you have what you need for an insurance claim.

Can you match a gate or fence that another company built?

Almost always. We measure the existing piece, match the tube sizes, picket spacing, and rail heights, and color-match the finish. Small differences in weathering are normal at first. A powder-coated black panel next to a ten-year-old one will look slightly newer until it settles in. We'll tell you up front how close the match will be.
