Gate and Wrought Iron Fence Repair in Phoenix

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.

Automatic Gate Repair

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.

Gate & Fence Repair Questions

Can you fix a gate you didn't install?

Yes. Most of our repair work is on gates and fences built by someone else.

Is it worth repairing an old iron fence?

Usually, if the posts are solid. Steel can be rewelded, straightened and repainted. If several posts are rusted through, replacing sections may make more sense.

Do you repair electric gate openers?

Yes. We service swing and slide operators, safety sensors, keypads and remotes.

Can you repaint my fence without replacing it?

Yes. We remove loose paint and rust, prime bare metal and repaint on site.
