Swing Gate Repair in Argyle: what we see

Ranch entrance swing gates and farm and paddock gates are everyday features of Argyle, and they are wide by design so trailers and equipment can pass. A long leaf works like a lever on its hinge post, and the posts here sit in ground that shifts with the seasons. Over time the leaf drops at the latch end, the hinges carry more weight than they were chosen for, and the operator arm strains to drag the gate shut.

Our approach to Argyle swing gate repair is to fix the gate before the operator. We measure how far the leaf has dropped, reset or brace the post, and replace hinges where they have worn, because a stronger operator pulling against a failing post only tears it out sooner. Then we adjust the arm, the limits and the safety eyes, keeping in mind livestock moving nearby. We repair swing gates off US-377 and in Country Lakes and Old Argyle.

Swing Gate Repair in Argyle: questions

Our wide ranch gate drags on the ground at the end. Can the post be saved?

Often, yes. If the post has leaned in shifting ground, it can usually be reset and braced, or its footing rebuilt, without replacing the gate. We also look at the hinges, which wear on long leaves. Once the leaf hangs level again, we readjust the operator so it no longer fights the gate.

Can livestock damage a swing gate operator?

They can. Horses and cattle rub on posts and arms, knock photo eyes out of line and sometimes push on a leaf. We guard or relocate exposed parts where possible and check the arm brackets for bending, since a bent bracket can stall the gate or cause it to close unevenly.

Gate Not Working Right Now?

We answer the phone 24/7. If you are stuck, call and we will talk you through the manual release before anyone arrives. See what counts as a gate emergency.
