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.
Gate scrapes
This symptom can develop as a result of hinge wear. Reviewing connected hardware helps identify the most practical repair.
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.
Leaves do not meet
Changes caused by gate weight can affect normal operation. We compare alignment, movement and component condition to pinpoint the fault.
Gate swings by itself
We check for post movement and any related wear to determine whether adjustment, repair or parts replacement is appropriate.
Top edge is uneven
This warning sign warrants checking hinge wear. The service is then tailored to the condition of the installed components.

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.
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.
