Preciado’s Iron Works - Oakland's Reliable Privacy Fence Installation

Sagging gates are a common issue here due to our hillside properties and weather shifts. At Preciado’s Iron Works, we first assess the gate’s hinges and posts. Often, the solution involves reinforcing the frame with galvanized steel or adjusting the hinges to realign the gate. If the post is leaning, we can reset it or install a heavier-duty post. We also check for rust on metal gates and treat it before making repairs. Our goal is to get your gate swinging smoothly again, whether it’s a manual or automatic system.

Absolutely. We fabricate custom metal fences using galvanized steel, aluminum, or stainless steel, and we can incorporate glass panels for a modern look. For privacy, we often recommend vertical slats or a solid metal panel design that blocks sightlines without feeling heavy. We’ll work with you on the height and finish—like powder coating or staining—to match your Oakland home’s style. We handle the entire process from fabrication to installation, ensuring the fence is durable and secure.

Yes, we install both manual and automatic gates for residential and commercial driveways. For automatic gates, we set up sliding or swing systems with reliable motors and safety sensors. We also integrate access controls like keypads, remote openers, or intercoms. Since Oakland has varying terrain, we customize the gate’s track and support to work on slopes or uneven ground. We provide free estimates and can recommend the best type of gate for your property’s layout.
