Swing Gate Repair in North Richland Hills, TX
Swing gates need balanced hinges, healthy hydraulics or rams, and proper alignment. We service all of it, including weld repair on bent or cracked frames.
Swing gates sag. It is the defining failure of the type, and it happens because the entire weight of the leaf hangs off two or three hinges bolted to a post that is sitting in soil that moves. Give it a few Texas seasons and the leading edge starts dropping toward the driveway.
The symptoms follow in order. First the two leaves stop meeting cleanly in the middle. Then the leading edge starts scraping. Then the operator, which is now dragging the gate rather than swinging it, starts straining, and eventually the arm bends or the operator gives up. People usually call at that last stage, which is why the repair often covers more than they expected.
We square the gate back up first, whether that means re-hanging it, replacing worn hinges, welding a sagged frame corner, or resetting the post. Then we deal with the operator and its arm. Doing it in that order means the operator is not immediately fighting the same geometry that broke the last one.

Frequently asked questions
Why is my swing gate sagging?
The weight of the leaf works on the hinges and the post over time, and North Texas soil movement accelerates it. Usually the fix is some combination of re-hanging the gate, replacing hinges, welding a sagged corner, and sometimes resetting the post.
Can a sagging gate damage the operator?
Yes, and it usually does eventually. Once the gate drags, the operator is pushing the leaf across concrete instead of swinging it, which bends arms and burns out motors. Fixing the sag is what keeps the next operator from failing the same way.
Do you fix the gate itself or only the automation?
Both. We weld, re-hang, replace hinges, and reset posts, and we service the operators and boards. Swing gate problems usually involve both sides, so splitting the work between two companies rarely goes well.
