Bray Electric Gate Installation - Roseville's Trusted Fencing Company

Fence post movement is commonly caused by expansive clay soils shifting with seasonal moisture changes and by ground vibrations from earthquakes common to the Sacramento Valley area. In neighborhoods like Olympic Park or near the Fountains, this can lean or tilt fence sections. Our solution involves resetting the posts with proper concrete footings and, for automatic gates, realigning tracks and sensors to restore smooth operation.

After an earthquake, look for misaligned gate panels, difficulty opening or closing automatic gates, cracked or splintered wood, and gaps between fence sections. You may also notice that the gate no longer latches correctly or the automatic opener makes unusual noises. If you spot these issues near homes in East Roseville or around the Sierra College area, it's wise to schedule an inspection quickly to prevent further deterioration.

Yes. Weatherproofing—such as sealing wood, painting or staining, and applying rust inhibitors on metal components—creates a barrier that protects against moisture intrusion through cracks caused by earthquake stress. For automatic gates, we also weatherproof electrical connections and sensor housings. This maintenance step, combined with regular repairs, helps extend the life of your gate and fence, especially in Roseville’s hot summer and wet winter climate.
