Driveway Gate Repair in Fort Worth: what we see

Private driveway gates in Fort Worth are often wrought iron swing gates at older homes in Arlington Heights, Ridglea Hills and Mistletoe Heights, where the driveway may be narrow and the operator old. Clay soil is the steady problem: posts move as the ground wets and dries, a gate that lined up last year starts catching, and the operator strains. On acreage drives past Loop 820, the driveway gate is often a long single leaf on battery and solar.

We swing the gate by hand to check hinges, posts and sag, and correct the post or re-hang the leaf if it has moved. Then we test the operator, its board and limits, and on paired gates the leaf delay. On older west-side operators we check whether the board is still available before quoting. On acreage gates we test the battery and panel. Fort Worth driveway gate repair is very often a mechanical fix that saves the operator.

Driveway Gate Repair in Fort Worth: questions

Our Fort Worth driveway gate now catches on the latch. Nothing hit it. Why?

Ground movement. Fort Worth clay swells and shrinks with moisture, and a gate post set in it moves gradually. The leaf then meets the latch or the other leaf at the wrong point. Correcting the post or re-hanging the gate fixes it and takes the strain off the operator.

Can an old wrought iron driveway gate be automated or repaired?

Usually, as long as the frame and hinges are sound. We check for rust at joints and hinge points, repair or replace worn hinges, and make sure the gate swings freely before fitting or repairing an operator. Heavy iron needs an operator rated for its weight, so we check that too.
