Gate Repair & Installation

Restoring Function to Your Entryways 

A gate is one of the most hardworking parts of your property. It’s opened and closed hundreds of times a year, slammed by the wind, and subjected to the constant shifting of the ground. When a gate stops working correctly, it’s more than just an annoyance – it’s a security risk for your pets and children. Whether you have a sagging wooden garden gate or a heavy metal driveway entrance, Onsite provides expert gate repair and installation services. 

We specialize in mechanical and structural fixes that get your gates swinging smoothly again. If your current gate is beyond repair, we can design and install a custom replacement that matches your existing fence and adds a touch of style to your property. 

Why Gates Fail 

In the Lower Mainland, gates usually fail for three main reasons: 

  1. Post Heave or Sink: The wet soil can cause the gate posts to shift or tilt. If the post isn’t perfectly vertical, the gate will never close correctly. 
  2. Weight and Gravity: Over time, the heavy weight of a wood gate can cause it to “sag,” leading to the bottom corner dragging on the ground. 
  3. Hardware Failure: Hinges can rust, latches can bend, and wood can rot where the screws are inserted. 

Our Gate Repair Services 

If your gate is sticking, dragging, or refusing to latch, we offer targeted wooden gate fix and metal gate maintenance: 

  • Hinge & Latch Replacement: We install heavy-duty, weather-resistant hardware that can handle the weight of your gate. 
  • Structural Bracing: We can install “anti-sag” kits or custom cross-bracing to pull a sagging gate back into a perfect square. 
  • Post Reinforcement: If a post is loose, we can often reinforce it or reset it in a deeper concrete footing to provide a stable anchor. 

New Gate Installation 

Sometimes, the best move is a fresh start. We offer custom gate installation using high-quality cedar, treated wood, or metal. We ensure that every new gate is built with a sturdy frame that resists warping and is hung with precision. Whether you need a simple side gate for your garbage bins or a grand entrance for your driveway, we focus on both the aesthetic and the durability, ensuring your new gate stays functional for years to come.
