Questions and Answers

What types of gates do you install and repair?

We install and repair both automatic and manual gates. Automatic gates include sliding, swing, and barrier arm styles with various opener options. Manual gates can be customized in wood or metal. Our team ensures proper alignment and reliable operation.

Why do you use stainless steel nails instead of staples or galvanized nails?

Stainless steel nails resist rust much better than galvanized nails, especially in our wet Pacific Northwest climate. Staples can loosen over time, but nails hold tighter. This choice extends the life of your fence and prevents staining from rust.

How do you repair aging fences with loose rails in Olympia?

We address loose rails by first inspecting the entire fence. We then re-secure rails using stainless steel screws or nails, reinforce posts where needed, and replace any rotted wood. This restores stability and prevents further sagging. We also recommend sealing or staining to protect against moisture.
