Serving Sacramento and the Towns Around It
We are a Sacramento-based company, but our trucks cover the entire region. Whether you are dealing with a rusted hinge on a historic property or a complex automation failure in a modern subdivision, our team is equipped to handle it.
If you are in Elk Grove, we often see gate issues related to the specific soil conditions and heavy moisture levels that affect gate alignment. Our team is frequently dispatched to Roseville and Rocklin, where we handle many gate automation upgrades for established homeowners who want to modernize their existing ironwork. For residents in Arden-Arcade and Carmichael, we specialize in repairing older, custom wrought-iron gates that require precise welding to restore their original function.
We also serve the growing communities of Folsom and Rancho Cordova, where we often assist with gate opener repairs for the nine major brands we support: LiftMaster, FAAC, BFT, Linear, Viking, Ghost Controls, DoorKing, Elite, and Mighty Mule. If you are located in Davis or Citrus Heights, our technicians are familiar with the local access control requirements and frequently perform safety inspections on automatic gates to ensure they meet current standards. We also regularly assist homeowners in Woodland with motor replacements and remote programming.
Common Gate Problems We Fix
A gate is a complex machine that combines heavy metal fabrication with sensitive electrical components. We treat every repair with the care of a master craftsman.
- Gate Hinge Repair and Welding: Over time, heavy gates can sag, causing them to drag on the driveway or bind against the latch. We specialize in on-site welding and hinge reinforcement to restore smooth operation.
- Gate Opener Troubleshooting: If your gate opener is making grinding noises, failing to reverse, or not responding to your remote, we can diagnose the issue. We are trained on nine major automation brands, including LiftMaster and Viking.
- Safety Sensor Alignment: Modern gates require functional photo-eye sensors. If your gate stops halfway or refuses to close, the sensors are often the culprit. We align and test these safety components to ensure they meet modern standards.
- Keypad and Remote Programming: We help homeowners update their access control systems, from programming new remotes to replacing outdated keypads.
Safety Note: Automatic gates use high-tension springs and powerful motors that can cause injury if handled incorrectly. Please keep children and pets away from the gate mechanism while it is malfunctioning. If a cable is frayed or a spring appears broken, do not attempt to force the gate open manually. Call our professional team at (833) 754-7503 to have a trained technician secure the area.
Professional Gate Maintenance
Preventative maintenance is the best way to extend the life of your gate system. An $89 Seasonal Tune-Up can identify worn-out rollers, dry bearings, or frayed wiring before they result in a complete system failure. During these visits, we lubricate all moving parts, test the safety reversal system, and check the gate balance. We recommend this service annually for all automated gates in the Sacramento area to account for the seasonal climate changes that affect metal expansion and contraction.
Is it cheaper to repair or replace a gate?
Repair is almost always the most cost-effective option unless the gate structure has suffered catastrophic damage or severe, unrepairable corrosion. In most cases, we can restore a 20-year-old gate to smooth, reliable operation by replacing worn hinges, upgrading the opener, or reinforcing the frame. Call (833) 754-7503 for an honest assessment of your gate condition - we will tell you if a repair is worth the investment.

What Our Customers Say
"Used them at two properties now. Both times they diagnosed it on the first visit instead of guessing and coming back."
- Rohan Shah"The gate works properly now and the price was fair. It did take two visits, because the operator we have is old and the part had to be ordered. They did not charge for the second trip."
- Carrie Mercer"A hydraulic arm was leaking fluid onto the driveway. Replaced, cleaned the stain as best he could, and it has been dry since."
- Erin Sutton
