Gate Repairs in Arundel

Our gate repairs service in Arundel

Sagging gates and post repairs

We check the post first: is it plumb, is it sound below ground, is the footing intact. Posts are re-plumbed or replaced with a new concrete footing, then the gate is squared and rehung so it swings and latches properly rather than being propped with extra hinges.

Pool gate repairs and compliance

Spring hinge replacement, magnetic latch alignment and post correction to restore self-closing and self-latching operation. Where the configuration itself will not pass a pool safety inspection, we scope what has to change instead of adjusting a gate that is going to fail anyway.

Hardware, driveway gates and new gates

Latches, drop bolts, centre stops and coastal-grade hinges, plus alignment on double driveway gates. Where a gate is past repair we build a new one in matching timber and height so it reads as part of the original fence.

Why gates fail near the coast

Within a few streets of the water in Arundel, standard zinc hardware corrodes quickly, the screws rust in the post and the hinge plate works loose under normal use. Upgrading to stainless or hot dip galvanised hardware during the repair costs very little and prevents the same call again in a couple of years.

Storm damage and impact repairs

Summer storms in Arundel take out gates through fallen branches, wind loading on solid-panel gates and water sitting against posts. We make the property secure first, then quote the permanent repair, and where the damage is claimable we scope it in a form your insurer can work with.

Access and approvals in Arundel

Level blocks and standard slab-on-ground construction make Arundel straightforward to work on, which keeps timelines tight and pricing predictable. Access and set-out are straightforward on most of these blocks.
