Every job carries our 90-Day Done Right Promise - written, no paperwork, no arguing. If it isn’t right, we come back and make it right.

Gate Repair
Sagging gates, broken hinges, seized latches, and gates that have shifted on their posts - we fix them all. Our welding equipment travels with us, so cracked frames and broken scrollwork are repaired on-site, not patched with temporary hardware.

Gate Installation
When a gate has reached the end of its service life, we measure, fabricate, and install a replacement that fits the existing opening and matches the home’s character. We handle steel, aluminum, and wrought iron, with automation-ready builds for homeowners who want the convenience later.

Why Daly City’s Climate & Housing Affect Gate Repair
Daly City sits directly in the Pacific Ocean’s marine layer corridor, making it one of the foggiest, saltiest urban microclimates in the entire Bay Area. That persistent salt-laden fog accelerates metal corrosion at rates that dwarf what contractors encounter in San Mateo or Redwood City just miles to the south. For gate hardware, this is not a minor consideration - it’s the primary reason hinges seize, strike plates crumble, and opener brackets fail years before their expected lifespan.
The Westlake neighborhood compounds this problem. Thousands of near-identical Doelger-built stucco tract homes from 1948-1965 mean a massive concentration of aging wrought iron and steel pedestrian and driveway gates of the same vintage, many still on original hardware. Our technicians repeatedly encounter the same frame dimensions, post placements, and corroded hardware across block after block. On the western-exposure streets of Westlake and the hillside neighborhoods near Junipero Serra Boulevard, gates face the prevailing onshore wind directly. We check the windward hinge first on every call - it is almost always the one that has seized or cracked from accelerated rust, while the leeward hinge on the same gate may still be serviceable. Annual lubrication and rust treatment here are essentially mandatory, not optional maintenance.

FAQs About Gate Repair in Daly City
Most gate repairs in Daly City fall between $180 and $480, with hinge work and minor opener repairs at the lower end and welding or full realignment at the higher end. We provide an upfront price before starting any work. Call (833) 754-7503 for a free estimate.
Yes, same-day service is available for most calls in Daly City when you reach us early in the day. A live person answers our phone 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and we’ll give you an honest arrival window. Call (833) 754-7503 to check today’s availability.
For Daly City’s mid-century wrought iron gates, repair is usually the more economical choice if the frame is structurally sound. Many Westlake gates from the 1950s and 1960s have excellent bones beneath decades of corrosion, and our on-site welding can extend their life significantly. We only recommend replacement when repair costs approach 60% of a new gate or when the frame itself has failed. Call (833) 754-7503 and we’ll assess it honestly.
Daly City’s marine layer deposits salt moisture on exposed metal surfaces almost daily, accelerating corrosion far beyond what inland Bay Area cities experience. Gates on west-facing streets, especially in Westlake and near Junipero Serra Boulevard, take the brunt of the onshore wind. Annual lubrication and rust treatment are essential here. Our $89 seasonal tune-up includes full hinge service, rust inhibitor application, and opener safety checks.
Yes - in fact, we’ve repaired hundreds of them. The standardized driveways and post placements in Westlake mean we often know the gate configuration before we arrive. We carry the specific hinge styles, post caps, and hardware that match these 1950s and 1960s installations, and our mobile welding rig handles frame repairs on-site. Call (833) 754-7503 to schedule a free assessment.
