Common warning signs

Signs this service may be needed

Changes in normal movement, security or performance are worth checking before the problem becomes more disruptive.

1

Uneven gap

A possible cause is post movement. We check how the affected parts move and engage before recommending work.

2

Gate scrapes

This symptom can develop as a result of hinge wear. Reviewing connected hardware helps identify the most practical repair.

3

Latch is too high or low

Ground movement can place extra strain on nearby components. Early attention may prevent the problem from becoming more disruptive.

4

Leaves do not meet

Changes caused by gate weight can affect normal operation. We compare alignment, movement and component condition to pinpoint the fault.

5

Gate swings by itself

We check for post movement and any related wear to determine whether adjustment, repair or parts replacement is appropriate.

6

Top edge is uneven

This warning sign warrants checking hinge wear. The service is then tailored to the condition of the installed components.

Why the problem happens

Common causes

Post movement

Movement in the building, frame, posts or surrounding ground can change clearances and stop the gate alignment lining up, closing or locking correctly.

Hinge wear

Hinges carry the moving weight of the system. Wear, loose fixings or bending can allow the panel or gate to drop and move out of alignment.

Ground movement

Movement in the building, frame, posts or surrounding ground can change clearances and stop the gate alignment lining up, closing or locking correctly.

Gate weight

Gate weight can change the way this particular gate alignment moves, closes or performs and should be confirmed through an on-site inspection.

Our approach

How we handle the repair

1

Measure gate position

Measurements and operating checks help isolate the actual cause rather than replacing parts based on assumption.

2

Assess posts and hinges

We examine the gate alignment, its surrounding components and the reported symptoms to understand how the fault presents in normal use.

3

Adjust suitable hardware

Clearances, fixings and operating positions are adjusted so the gate alignment can move and engage as intended.

4

Confirm latch and clearance

Measurements and operating checks help isolate the actual cause rather than replacing parts based on assumption.

Repair or replace?

Should your gate be repaired or replaced?

Repair may be practical when the main structure remains serviceable and the problem involves alignment, accessible hardware or replaceable operating components.
