Gates need to be repaired, more frequently than a fence. While your fence and gate may still have life left, you’re likely having issues opening and closing a gate.

Driveway Gate Repair
Driveway gates are the ultimate convenience until it stops working! Some types and designs of vehicle gates are more prone to repair than others after the driveway gate installation. Below are common reasons driveway gate repairs are needed:
- Despite warning signs, it’s only a matter of time after the gate installation before a swing driveway gate hits a vehicle or a vehicle bumps into the gate. Gates can become misaligned, mangled and could need full replacement depending on the damage.
- Lubrication of hinges is a common maintenance item for a driveway gate. Hinges can also be bent and damaged if poorly sized for a gate. Slide gates rely on chains that also need to be greased.
- Old chains get rusty over time from weather exposure, and may need to be replaced.
- Automatic gates are more likely to need repair of the gate operator. A variety of problems can occur depending on whether your gate is solar-powered, has a battery backup or operates via electric. Batteries can die, solar panels will need to be replaced after several years and gate operator systems also need lubrication.

Walk Gate Repair
Pedestrian gates are important for protecting access to your DFW property. Fixing entry gates can be critical when attached to a pool fence, all it takes is a neighbor that enters via a latch that doesn’t lock. Walk gates that work properly are further important for your pets and children.
Often, walk gates wear out faster than other parts of a fence after the gate installation. Gate sagging is a common problem and is caused by weather, frequent use, and gravity. Usually, the cause of sagging is loose support posts. Adding a new concrete footer can provide the support your walk gate needs.
Another problem is the locks and latches. Buzz Custom Fence can upgrade your old rusted latch for a smart lock even after the gate installation. If you find yourself misplacing the key, a keypad entry is an option for most walk gates and is child-proof. If you have a broken walk gate, please call us today so we can inspect your walk gate and get your gate back normal as quickly as possible!
