Double K Fence Company - Syracuse's Experienced Fence Installation

Syracuse's freeze-thaw cycles cause moisture in the ground to expand, pushing fence posts out of alignment. Ice can also build up on the fabric, adding weight that stresses the chain link. This is especially common in neighborhoods like Tipperary Hill where clay soil retains water.

Regular lubrication with a silicone-based spray and ensuring proper drainage around the gate can help. If hardware already frozen, avoid forcing it—call Double K Fence Company. We can install weather-resistant hardware and adjust gates to prevent winter issues.

Look for leaning posts, sagging chain link, rust where ice has melted, or gates that won't latch. In Syracuse, we often see bent posts near the Erie Canal due to frost heave. If you notice any of these, our team can assess and repair the damage before it worsens.
