Company Profile

Cardenas Welding & Iron Works has served Los Angeles since 1990, bringing 35 years of hands-on experience in ornamental ironwork. The company specializes in custom iron fences and gates, handrails, window bars with fire escapes, iron security doors, and patio doors. They also handle metal fabrication, rolling, powder coating, and fence and gate painting, staining, weatherproofing, and repair. Their work focuses on blending durability with the classic iron detailing common in LA homes. For local fencing issues like chain link corrosion and privacy fence panel damage, they assess each property in person—often in neighborhoods such as East LA, Boyle Heights, or near Dodger Stadium—and recommend rust-resistant materials or reinforce panels to withstand the area's coastal air and seasonal rains. By staying grounded in traditional welding techniques while adapting to modern weather challenges, they provide reliable, long-lasting solutions for residential and commercial clients throughout Los Angeles.

Q&A

How do you prevent chain link fence corrosion in Los Angeles' coastal climate?

Over the years, we've seen chain link fences rust quickly near the coast or in areas with high humidity. We address this by using galvanized or vinyl-coated chain link, and we apply a weatherproof sealant after installation. For existing fences showing rust, we can sand, treat, and repaint or coat the metal to extend its life. We also check for proper drainage around the posts to reduce moisture buildup.

Can you repair a privacy fence that has a damaged wood or metal panel?

Yes, we repair both wood and metal privacy fence panels. For wood, we replace rotted or split boards and can stain or paint to match. For metal, we weld new sections if there's rust or impact damage, then treat the area to prevent future corrosion. We also reinforce the frame if needed to keep the panel stable.

What is the process for installing an automatic gate on a residential property?

We start by assessing your driveway or walkway layout and the weight of the gate. Then we install the gate operator (motor), wiring, safety sensors, and any necessary controls like keypads or remote openers. We also ensure the gate itself is properly balanced and the tracks or hinges are sturdy. It usually takes one to two days depending on the complexity and gate size.
