Emergency Gate Repair in Highland Park: what we see

An emergency on a Highland Park gate looks different from one on a long suburban drive. With little room between the gate and the street, a gate stuck shut leaves a car waiting in traffic, and a gate stuck open leaves the property exposed on a busy road such as Preston Road or Mockingbird Lane. Vehicle strikes are a real risk on tight drives, and spring storms bring surges that kill boards and fallen limbs that bend heavy iron.

Our first job in an emergency is to make the gate safe and usable, which may mean releasing the operator so the leaf moves by hand, securing a damaged leaf, or isolating power to a burned board. Once it is safe, we work out the real repair: a bent leaf or broken hinge, a damaged post, or electronics that need replacing. We answer around the clock for Highland Park, including homes in Lakeside and Highland Park West.

Emergency Gate Repair in Highland Park: questions

A car hit our iron gate. Can it be repaired or does it need replacing?

Often it can be repaired. Bent pickets and frames can usually be straightened or sections remade, and a damaged hinge or post replaced. We secure the gate first, then assess the iron, the post and the operator separately. If the gate is original to the house, we look for a repair that keeps it rather than a new leaf.

What should I do if my gate is stuck open overnight?

If the gate is safe, use the manual release to close it by hand and lock it if it has a latch. If it will not move or the leaf is damaged, keep people and pets clear and call us. Do not keep pressing the remote, as repeated attempts can overheat the motor or damage the board further.
