Phoenix Gate Repair
Sagging gates, broken welds, rusted posts, failed openers and faded paint, fixed on site.
Iron Gates Phoenix has welders and gate techs for gate repair and wrought iron fence repair across Phoenix. Most calls start with a gate that drags, won't latch or has a broken weld at the hinge.
Phoenix heat and monsoon storms are hard on ironwork. Paint chalks in the sun, rust starts where water sits at the base of a post, and a gate that gets slammed by wind slowly pulls its post out of plumb.
We fix what's causing the problem, not just the symptom. A sagging gate often needs a brace or a reset post, not just new hinges.


Rusted post bottoms cut out and replaced with new steel, or the post reset in new concrete.

Cracked joints at hinges, latches and pickets rewelded on site and ground smooth.

Worn hinges swapped for adjustable ones and latches realigned so the gate closes with one hand.

Loose paint and rust removed, metal primed and the fence repainted.
| Problem | Usual cause | Usual fix |
|---|---|---|
| Gate drags on the ground | Sagging frame or leaning post | Add a brace, reset the post or rehang |
| Gate won't latch | Post movement or worn hinges | Adjust hinges and realign the latch |
| Automatic gate stops or reverses | Sensor alignment, worn parts or a binding gate | Check the gate by hand, then service the operator |
| Rust spots and flaking | Finish failure where water sits | Sand, treat, prime and repaint |
| Bent pickets or panel | Impact from a car or storm debris | Straighten or replace the section |
When an automatic driveway gate stops working, the operator isn't always the problem. We check that the gate moves freely by hand, then test the safety sensors, limits and drive parts. Fixing a binding gate often saves the operator from burning out.
