My Fence Contractor | Experienced Fencing Company in Sacramento, CA

Sagging gates are often caused by loose hinges, a shifting post, or the weight of the gate pulling it out of alignment. Our team inspects the hinge hardware and post footing, then tightens or replaces components as needed. For heavy or wide gates, we may add a wheel or an anti-sag kit to prevent future issues.

A sticking lock can indicate a misaligned gate due to settling posts or weather-related wood swelling. While the lock itself may just need lubrication, it’s worth checking the gate’s alignment and the latch strike plate. We can adjust hinges, shim the latch, or repair the post to ensure the lock works smoothly.

We recommend painting or staining after a repair to protect the new wood and match the existing finish. This is also a good time to weatherproof the entire fence, especially in Sacramento’s sun and occasional rain. We can handle the coating as part of the repair job for a seamless look.
