Expert Fence Builders in Bessemer, MI 49911 - North Country Welding

The heavy use of road salt on local streets during winter (especially near US-2 and Lake Gogebic) accelerates corrosion on standard steel gates. Additionally, moisture from snowmelt and high humidity in the Ottawa National Forest area compounds the problem. North Country Welding recommends using galvanized or powder-coated steel to resist rust, and we offer custom fabrication with weather-resistant materials.

Signs include gates that won’t latch, visible tilting of posts, and gaps between the bottom of the fence and the ground. In Bessemer’s clay-heavy soil around Sunday Lake, frost heave is common. If you notice these issues, come see us at our shop on Bainbridge Street. We can weld steel reinforcement plates or replace posts with deep-set anchors to prevent future shifting.

Often the metal hinges or brackets have bent from snow load or wind. North Country Welding can retrofit your fence with heavy-duty steel straps and gate hinges custom-cut to fit. We also offer full gate replacements using welded steel frames that won’t warp. Stop by our facility near the Bessemer City Hall for a free estimate.
