Trusted Fencing Company in Dallas, TX 75253 - Trusty Fences Wood

Dallas’s hot, humid climate and frequent afternoon thunderstorms create ideal conditions for moisture buildup on metal hardware. Galvanized coatings can wear off over time, especially if your fence is near sprinklers, pool equipment, or shaded areas that stay damp. Poor-quality or improperly sealed hardware is often the culprit behind early rust formation.

Look for orange or brown discoloration on hinges, latches, or screws. A gate that sticks, sags, or won’t close evenly is a common sign. You might also see flaking metal or hear a squeaking sound when the gate moves. If you notice any of these, your hardware is already weakening and could fail completely.

Absolutely. In most cases, we can remove the corroded hardware and install new stainless steel or weather-resistant galvanized parts—hinges, latches, gate wheels, and posts. This restores function and extends your fence’s life without the cost or disruption of a full replacement. We’ll also check the surrounding wood for damage and seal any exposed areas.
