Commercial Fencing Lancaster NY | Call Premier Fence Company

Fence rail separation often results from moisture expansion and contraction during Lancaster's freeze-thaw cycles, or from loose fasteners. Over time, nails or screws can pull out, especially in treated lumber. Our solution is to reinforce joints with corrosion-resistant brackets and screws, ensuring stability against Erie County's weather.

Look for reddish-brown rust spots on hinges, latches, or gate posts—especially near the bottom where road salt and groundwater collect. If hardware feels gritty or squeaks, it's likely corroding. Ignoring it can lead to gate sag or failure. We replace compromised hardware with galvanized or stainless steel parts designed for long-term durability.

We start by evaluating the entire fence line—tightening or replacing loose rails, then swapping out rusted hinges and latches. For severe cases, we may recommend partial section replacements. Our goal is a unified repair that prevents future damage, often using pressure-treated lumber and marine-grade hardware to withstand Lancaster's conditions.
