We specialize in crafting and repairing custom metal fences and gates that endure the region's demanding climate.

Our team addresses this by using corrosion-resistant materials and precision welding techniques to restore structural integrity. Located just off Summer Avenue near the historic Memphis Botanic Garden, we offer quick turnaround times for residential and commercial clients. Whether you need a new wrought-iron fence for your Midtown home or a heavy-duty gate for a warehouse in Binghampton, we deliver durable solutions that last.
Common Questions
What causes metal fence gates to sag or stick in Memphis?
In Memphis, high humidity and frequent rain cause metal components to rust, especially at hinge points. Additionally, seasonal ground shifts from freeze-thaw cycles can misalign gate posts. This leads to sagging, sticking, or difficulty latching. Our team identifies the root cause—whether it's corrosion, loose hardware, or post movement—and repairs it with heavy-duty hinges and rust-resistant fasteners.
How do you prevent rust on custom metal fences in Memphis?
We use galvanized steel or powder-coated aluminum for new fences, both of which resist moisture and road salt. For repairs, we grind away existing rust, apply a rust-inhibiting primer, and finish with a UV-resistant paint. We also recommend annual inspections after wet seasons to catch early corrosion spots, especially near the base where moisture collects.
Can you repair a gate that was damaged by a storm or vehicle impact?
Absolutely. We straighten bent frames, re-weld broken joints, and replace damaged panels or hinges. For gates that won't close properly due to impact, we realign the posts and reinforce the frame with thicker gauge metal. Our repair work restores functionality and appearance, often at a fraction of the cost of full replacement.
