Sagging, dragging, cracked or broken gates re-hung, re-welded and made to close and latch properly again.
Most failing gates have one of a few problems: a hinge that has pulled out of the post, a frame that has cracked at a corner, a post that has leaned, or a weld that has been fatigued by years of swinging. Each is repairable, and the right fix depends on which one you have.
We look at how the gate hangs, where it drags and which parts have failed. Then we weld cracked members, replace worn hinges, brace the frame and re-hang the gate so it swings freely and the latch lines up. If the post is the real problem, we say so and address it.
A dragging gate may have a bent frame, a leaning post or worn hinges. Fixing the symptom without the cause means the problem comes back in a season.
Adding a diagonal brace or corner gusset while the frame is open restores strength and often improves on the original design.
New hinge hardware, shims and adjustable latches let the gate swing true. We test through its whole arc before we call it done.
Gates sag because of leverage on the hinge side. A sound post, a diagonal brace and proper hinge spacing all help. We add them while the gate is apart so the repair lasts.

Usually the frame has racked, the hinges have loosened or the post has leaned. We check each and fix what is causing the sag.
Yes. We realign the frame, adjust or replace the latch and, where needed, move the strike so the gate closes and secures.
Often, when the frame is sound. If it is rusted through or badly bent, replacing is the more sensible choice and we say so.
We repair the gate itself and its frame and posts. Operator electronics are a job for a gate-opener technician, and we coordinate if needed.
