Signs you need a gate repair or a new gate
Walk gates, double drive gates and RV gates built square and hung on strong posts — and sagging gates put right — across Portland, Beaverton, Wilsonville, and surrounding communities.
A gate is the part of a fence that works hardest. It swings every day, carries its own weight out from one post, and takes the wind like a door left open. That's why most fence complaints we hear are really gate complaints.
Good gate installation starts with the post. A gate post carries much more load than a line post, so we use heavier posts — larger wood posts or galvanized steel — set deeper, with drainage at the bottom of the hole. The gate frame is built square and braced, with the diagonal running from the bottom on the hinge side up to the top on the latch side so it holds the gate up instead of letting it drop. Hinges, latches and drop rods are sized for the weight and rated for outdoor use.
Gate repair covers sagging and dragging gates, loose or broken hinges, latches that no longer meet, leaning gate posts, and rotted gate frames. Sometimes a brace or an anti-sag kit is enough. If the post itself is leaning, the post has to be reset, or the gate will sag again.

A gate is a small project with a lot of decisions. These are the ones that change the price.
Wider openings need stronger frames, heavier posts, or a double gate.
Wood, vinyl, aluminum and steel gates differ in material and build.
Galvanized steel posts cost more than wood but don't rot or lean as easily.
Heavy-duty hinges, self-closing hinges, lockable latches and drop rods add cost.
A gate on a slope may need to swing uphill or be raised to clear the ground.
Adjusting or bracing a gate is smaller than rebuilding the frame or post.
