Bobby's Fence Company | Local Fence Installation in Searcy, AR

Gate sagging is often caused by heavy weight, worn hinges, or loose posts. In Searcy's humid climate, wooden gates can absorb moisture and become heavier, while metal hinges may rust and weaken over time. Settling soil from seasonal rain can also shift posts, causing the gate to droop. Bobby's Fence Company can inspect and correct these issues with reinforced hinges, adjustable brackets, or post resetting.

Broken pickets will have visible cracks, splits, or missing pieces, while loose pickets may move when pushed and have gaps at the nails or screws. In Searcy, high winds from storms often snap pickets, especially on older fences. Give each picket a gentle shake — if it wobbles or leaves a gap, it's likely loose. Bobby's Fence Company can quickly replace broken pickets or re-secure loose ones to restore your fence's integrity.

The best solution depends on the cause. For heavy gates, we install anti-sag kits or replace standard hinges with heavier-duty ones. If the post is leaning, we reset it with concrete and gravel for a stable foundation. For wooden gates, we may add diagonal bracing to prevent future sagging. Bobby's Fence Company offers free estimates and can recommend the most durable fix for your specific gate.
