Gate Repair Questions
Answers to common questions about gate repair in Charlotte
How much does it cost to fix a sagging gate?
Most sagging gate repairs range from $150-$400 depending on the cause. Simple hinge replacements start around $150, while gates needing frame reinforcement, diagonal bracing, or post resetting cost $250-$400. We assess the damage and provide exact pricing before starting work.
Can you repair a gate the same day?
Yes! Most gate repairs are completed in 1-3 hours, and we often handle same-day or next-day service based on availability. For urgent issues like gates that won't latch or automatic openers that stopped working, call us as early as possible for fast service.
Should I repair or replace my gate?
If the frame is structurally sound and the issue is hinges, latches, or minor alignment, repair is usually the best choice (saves money and time). If the frame is rotted, severely warped, or has multiple structural issues, replacement may be more cost-effective long-term. We'll assess honestly and recommend the best option for your situation.
What causes gates to sag over time?
Gates sag due to: weight pulling on hinges over time, inadequate diagonal bracing in the frame, loose or undersized hinges, rotted posts, and ground movement causing post lean. Quality hinges, proper bracing, and secure posts prevent sagging. We fix the root cause, not just the symptoms.
Do you repair automatic gate openers?
Yes, we diagnose and repair automatic gate opener systems including motors, sensors, remotes, and control panels. We work with all major brands (LiftMaster, Mighty Mule, Ghost Controls, and others). If the motor is beyond repair, we can recommend and install a replacement system.
