Wood and Vinyl Fencing Chicago IL | Call Iron Fence Repair Chicago

Gates that stick or jam are often caused by a settled post, a bent hinge, or rust buildup on the latch mechanism. We start by diagnosing the root issue — it might be a leaning post that needs bracing, or a hinge that needs realignment. We'll adjust the gate frame and hinges, and if a lockbox is rusted or broken, we can repair or replace it. We serve neighborhoods from Lincoln Park to Bronzeville, and we’ll get your gate swinging freely again.

Leaning fence posts and ice damage are common problems in Chicago, especially after freeze-thaw cycles. We can re-anchor leaning posts by digging them out and resetting them with fresh concrete to prevent future movement. For ice damage — which can bend pickets or crack welds — we use metal fabrication and welding to straighten or replace damaged sections. We’ve done this work all over the city, from edgewater to Bridgeport, and we make sure the repair holds up through our winters.

Yes, we provide weatherproofing as part of our maintenance and restoration services. This includes cleaning the metal, wire wheeling away loose rust, applying a rust-inhibitive primer, and finishing with a durable exterior paint or stain. We focus on sealing vulnerable points like joints and welds to prevent moisture from causing further damage. This service is ideal for older fences across Chicago, including properties in Hyde Park and Beverly, where exposure to rain, snow, and salt takes a toll.
