C & C Lock & Iron Works - Dorchester Center's Top-Rated Commercial Fencing

A sagging gate is often caused by loose or rusted hardware, a settling fence post, or the sheer weight of the gate pulling on its hinges. In Dorchester Center's freeze-thaw cycles, ground movement can also shift posts. Our solution: we can tighten or replace hinges, adjust the post, or even install an anti-sag kit. If the gate is beyond repair, we can build and install a new, properly braced gate.

Rust spots are a sign that the protective coating has been breached, often from salt spray or winter de-icing. If left untreated, it can lead to pitting and structural weakness. We don't just paint over rust. Our process includes wire brushing, sanding, and applying a rust-inhibiting primer before painting or staining. We can also apply a weatherproof sealant to protect your fence for years to come.

Yes, cold weather can affect automatic gate mechanisms—batteries drain faster, lubricants thicken, and ice can jam tracks or sensors. We repair all brands of automatic gates. Our technicians will inspect the motor, gears, sensors, and control board. We'll also check the wiring and adjust the limit switches. For Dorchester Center homes, we can winterize your gate system to prevent future issues.
