Corbin Ironworks - Phoenix's Professional Wood and Vinyl Fencing

The main cause is ground shifting due to expansive soils in Phoenix, which swell when wet and shrink as they dry. This movement can upset your gate's alignment, making it drag or stick. At Corbin Ironworks, we reinforce gates with sturdy metal posts and adjustable hinges that can be tightened or realigned to compensate for soil changes, keeping your gate swinging smoothly all year.

A clear sign is when fence boards bow, crack, or twist, leaving gaps and making the fence look uneven. The intense Phoenix sun dries out wood, causing it to shrink and warp over time. Metal fencing from Corbin Ironworks is a great alternative because it doesn't warp, crack, or rot in the heat, providing a sturdy, low-maintenance solution that stays straight for decades.

If your fence is sagging, it's often due to wood rot or weak wooden posts that can't handle the heat and moisture swings. At Corbin Ironworks, we fabricate custom metal fence frames or entire metal fences that won't sag or rot. We also install strong metal posts set deep in concrete for added stability, giving your property a secure and permanent fix.
