Gate Depot | Professional Commercial Fencing in Sonoma, CA
17526 Highway 12, Sonoma, CA 95476
Company Profile
Gate Depot in Sonoma, CA, started as an online retail division of a custom gate fabrication and installation company, Sculptural Gates, in 2003. In 2005, the business separated to focus exclusively on supplying gates and gate equipment to residential and commercial customers. Our team has been involved since the split, starting in shipping and receiving and later moving into sales, becoming sales manager in 2008 and eventually general manager. We offer a full range of products including slide gates, swing gates, gate operators, and access control systems. Every customer receives free technical support from our knowledgeable staff, whether they are a homeowner, contractor, or business owner. While we no longer handle installation directly, our team helps residents and businesses in Sonoma find the right equipment for their specific needs, including solutions for common local issues like fence damage from weather and leaning posts. Our location serves customers throughout the Sonoma Valley, including near the historic Sonoma Plaza and the surrounding neighborhoods of Boyes Hot Springs and Glen Ellen.
Questions and Answers
I have a leaning fence on my property near Sonoma Plaza. Can you help me find the right equipment to fix it?
Yes. Leaning fences are common in Sonoma due to soil movement and weather. We supply heavy-duty post anchors, adjustable brackets, and new gate hardware that can help stabilize a leaning fence line. Our free technical support can walk you through what to buy and how to brace the posts properly, saving you a service call if you’re handy. We stock products suitable for both wood and metal fences.
Do you sell automatic gate openers for a residential driveway, and can you help me choose the right one?
We carry a range of automatic gate operators for residential driveways, including swing and slide gate openers. Our staff can help match the opener to your gate weight, size, and frequency of use. Since we don’t install, you’ll get unbiased advice on what equipment to buy, and you can take that to a local installer or handle it yourself with our tech support.
What’s the best way to weatherproof a wooden gate in Sonoma’s climate?
For wooden gates, we recommend using a high-quality exterior stain or paint with UV protection and a water sealant. We sell sealants and stains suitable for the local wet winters and dry summers. Also, ensuring proper post drainage and using galvanized hardware will extend the gate’s life. Our staff can tell you which products are best for your specific wood type.
