Hinges carry the entire weight of a gate every time it swings, so they are a common failure point, especially on heavy iron and wood gates. Worn, seized, or cracked hinges cause sagging, grinding, and eventually a gate that can fall.
Lubricating a dry, squeaking hinge can buy time, but a hinge that is worn, cracked, or rusted through needs rebuilding or replacing, and often re-welding on iron gates. A gate hanging on a failing hinge is a safety risk and should be looked at promptly.
Our technician confirms the cause on-site, quotes the repair upfront, and fixes it — then tests the gate (and, on automated gates, its safety reversing) before leaving. Serving Burlington and the surrounding Halton and Hamilton area.
We diagnose the real cause and quote before we start. No surprises.
