The job, start to finish
Where it started
At this commercial lot entrance, one bent leaf had pulled the double gate apart, and the two leaves no longer met in the middle.
What we did
This was a shop repair, not a patch on site. We took the gate down, hauled it to our shop, cut out the bent bars, and welded in new ones. Then it was sandblasted to bare steel and powder coated, so the new bars and the original steel carry one even finish.
- Damaged gate taken off site to our shop
- Bent bars cut out and replaced
- Sandblasted to bare steel and powder coated
- Rehung and closing straight across the entrance
How it turned out
Back on its posts, the gate closes straight across the lot entrance again.

Questions we get about jobs like this
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 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.
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.
