Double Barrel Fabrication: Professional Commercial Fencing Serving San Angelo, TX 76905

Gate sag is often caused by soil shifting under the post, especially after heavy rain or drought cycles common in San Angelo. Over time, the weight of the gate can also bend the hinges or pull the post out of plumb. If you notice your gate dragging, it’s usually a sign the post needs re-bracing or the hinges need replacing. Double Barrel Fabrication can assess the problem and reinforce the system with custom-fabricated brackets or a new post setup.

Look for rusted-through panels, loose or missing bolts, and gates that no longer latch properly. In San Angelo’s climate, older metal fences can also develop weak spots where the metal has thinned out from wind and sand abrasion. If you see these signs, it’s time for an inspection. We can repair sections or fabricate new panels that match your existing fence, saving you the cost of a full replacement.

Yes, that’s one of our most common repairs. A gate that won’t close usually means the frame has twisted or the post has shifted. We’ll first check the alignment of the post, then adjust or replace hinges, and if needed, fabricate a new gate frame that’s square and balanced. Our goal is to make your gate open and close smoothly, even on uneven ground.
