Our Gate Parts & Welding Services in Norcross
Hinge Replacement
Gate hinges in Norcross take a beating. The red-clay soil shifts posts seasonally, and that movement works hinge pins loose or bends them out of true. We replace builder-grade hinges with heavier-duty hardware rated for the actual weight of your gate - not the spec sheet from 1992. A typical hinge replacement in Norcross runs $180-$320. We inspect the post footing while we’re at it, because correcting the hinge without addressing the root shift is a temporary fix at best.
Post Replacement
Gwinnett County’s expansive clay is unforgiving. Posts lean, rot at the base, or pull out of concrete entirely. Post replacement in Norcross costs $450-$850 depending on depth, gate weight, and whether we need to relocate utilities. We set posts below the frost line with proper drainage, not the shallow pour that failed the first time. For community entrance gates along Peachtree Industrial, we coordinate with HOA boards to minimize access disruption - often completing the work during off-peak hours.
Rail Repair
Ornamental iron rails in Norcross subdivisions crack at weld points after decades of humidity cycling and thermal expansion. We cut out the failed section, match the profile, and weld in new stock. Rail repair typically runs $220-$480. For aluminum gates, we use specialized TIG equipment to avoid burning through thin-wall tubing - a common mistake with generalist welders who don’t work gates exclusively.
Custom Welding
Old Town Norcross presents a special case. Pre-WWII craftsman properties need period ironwork that matches existing gates and fences. We fabricate to pattern, not to catalog. Custom welding for historic matching in Norcross starts at $350 for small repairs and runs $600-$1,200 for full panel fabrication. We recently replaced a corroded BFT control board at a community entrance off Peachtree Industrial with a universal retrofit kit, ensuring cellular-intercom compatibility for the HOA’s renters. The old operator housing had rusted through from our humid climate, requiring custom welding of a new support bracket. That’s the kind of layered problem Norcross gates present - and the kind we solve.

Trusted Brands We Service in Norcross
We stock parts and are certified to service nine major brands: LiftMaster, FAAC, BFT, Linear, Viking, Ghost Controls, DoorKing, Elite, and Mighty Mule. For Norcross customers, this means we carry the FAAC and BFT control boards common in 1990s subdivisions, plus the Linear and Viking hardware found in newer installations. We also stock universal retrofit boards for obsolete operators whose manufacturers no longer support them. Most parts are on the truck, so your gate isn’t waiting on a warehouse shipment. Fast turnaround, correct part, first visit.
Common Gate Parts & Welding Problems We See in Norcross Homes
- Obsolete operator control boards in Peachtree Industrial subdivisions. Many 1990s community gates run on boards no longer manufactured. We stock universal retrofit kits and confirm cellular-intercom compatibility with your HOA before quoting, because many communities are upgrading to app-based access for renters and short-term residents.
- Builder-grade operators failing under wrought-iron weight. New master-planned homes in Norcross often ship with operators undersized for the decorative gates installed. The motor strains, overheats, and fails prematurely - sometimes within the first year.
- Rust-pitted motor housings from subtropical humidity. Norcross’s humidity load accelerates corrosion faster than arid-climate benchmarks. Annual lubrication without rust-inhibiting treatment often isn’t enough. We see housings rusted through that should have lasted another decade.
- Chronic hinge misalignment from clay soil shift. Red-clay expansion and contraction moves posts. Adjusting operator travel limits masks the problem until the gate drags or the operator strips gears. We correct at the footing.

FAQs - Gate Parts & Welding in Norcross
Yes, but many 1990s operators along Peachtree Industrial Boulevard require a universal retrofit control board first, because the original boards are no longer manufactured and won’t communicate with modern cellular intercoms. We stock these retrofit kits and confirm HOA compatibility before quoting. Call (833) 754-7503 for a free assessment of your specific operator.
Unfortunately, yes. Builder-grade operators in new master-planned homes here are often undersized for the weight of decorative wrought-iron gates. The motor strains, the post shifts in our red-clay soil, and the gate drags. We replace with properly rated hardware and correct post alignment at the footing. Most builder-gate fixes in Norcross run $380-$720. Call for an exact quote - estimates are free.
Yes. We fabricate custom panels and weld repairs to match pre-WWII craftsman-era ironwork, not off-the-shelf replacements. This requires pattern-taking and often hand-forged elements. Custom historic matching starts at $350 and runs to $1,200 for full panels. We’ve restored gates in the Old Town district that no catalog supplier could replicate.
We apply rust-inhibiting treatment during every repair and recommend it as part of our $89 seasonal tune-up. Annual lubrication alone is often insufficient here - the subtropical humidity accelerates pitting on wrought iron and corrodes operator housings faster than in drier climates. Our treatment program includes housing inspection, spot welding of early rust-through, and protective coating reapplication.
Yes. The heavy-cycle sliding security gates serving auto dealers, warehouses, and strip-mall complexes along Jimmy Carter and Buford Highway take commercial-level wear in what’s technically a residential suburb. We repair rails, replace rollers, weld track sections, and service operators on these gates. Commercial sliding gate repair in Norcross typically runs $320-$850 depending on cycle count and access. Call (833) 754-7503 - we answer 24/7.
