Charley The Fence Man | Reliable Fencing Company in Oklahoma City, OK

The main cause is Oklahoma's fluctuating humidity and heavy rainfall, which can saturate untreated wood, combined with intense sun that dries and cracks it. This cycle leads to rot, warping, and splitting. Charley The Fence Man addresses this by using pressure-treated lumber and proper sealing techniques suited for our local weather.

Common signs include the gate dragging on the ground, difficulty latching, or sagging on its hinges. You might also notice rust or cracks in the hinges or posts leaning inward. These issues often stem from heavy winds or regular wear. Charley can realign the gate, replace hardware, or install a tension cable to restore smooth operation.

After storms, we inspect for broken or loose panels, shifted posts, and damaged gates. The solution involves reinforcing the structure with stronger fasteners, replacing compromised sections, and setting posts deeper with concrete to withstand future winds. We also check for soil erosion around the base to prevent settling.
