Questions and Answers
What causes wind-damaged fence sections in Lubbock?
Lubbock's frequent high winds, often exceeding 40 mph, stress fence panels and posts. Weak or rusted posts, thin gauge materials, and improper anchoring are common culprits. Custom Iron Works addresses this by using heavy-gauge steel, deep-set concrete footings, and reinforced welds that resist wind uplift and panel breakage.
How do I know if my gate is sagging, and what can be done?
Signs include difficulty latching, scraping against the ground, or uneven gaps between the gate and frame. This is often due to loose hinges, bent frames, or post settling. Our solution: we adjust or replace hinges, strengthen the frame with custom metal fabrication, and re-set posts if needed to restore smooth operation.
Can you match existing ironwork for repairs in Lubbock neighborhoods?
Absolutely. We custom fabricate pieces to match your existing ironwork's style, scroll patterns, and finish. Whether it's a vintage Tech Terrace home or a modern Oakwood property, we take measurements and photos to ensure a seamless blend. Repairs look like original parts, maintaining your fence's character.
