Gate repair • Jacksonville, Florida
Your gate should open, close, and latch.
Dragging across the driveway? Wobbling on its posts? Off its hinges or refusing to latch? 4 Tradesmen Fencing helps diagnose and repair troublesome wood, vinyl, aluminum, and chain-link gates.
Tell us what changed, share a few photos, and we’ll look at the gate, its hardware, and the support behind it. We’ll explain whether a repair or a replacement makes more sense for the condition we find.

What we fix
When a gate stops doing its job
Small alignment problems can become broken hardware or a gate that will not stay closed. We look for the cause before recommending a fix.
01
Sagging or dragging
The gate drops, rubs the ground, or needs a lift to close. We check the frame, bracing, hinges, posts, and alignment.
02
Wobbly or unstable
Movement at the gate or post can make every adjustment temporary. We inspect the support and discuss the right repair.
03
Off its hinges
A loose, bent, missing, or damaged hinge can leave a gate hanging dangerously. We assess hardware and attachment points.
04
Will not latch
A misaligned latch, worn hardware, or shifting gate can prevent a secure close. We check the full swing and latch position.
05
Broken parts
We can evaluate damaged pickets, rails, frames, hinges, and latches, then explain what can be repaired or replaced.
06
Major gate issues
For a severely damaged or failing gate, we will be direct about repair options, safety, and when rebuilding is the better choice.
Materials
Repairs for the gate you have
Different gate materials need different hardware and support. We work on residential and commercial gate problems within our service area.
Wood
Hinges, latches, bracing, sagging frames, and post support. Ask about our wood fencing and custom gates when a rebuild is needed.
Vinyl
Gate alignment, hardware, hinges, and latches, with an assessment of the frame and posts. Explore our vinyl fence work.
Aluminum
Hinges, latch operation, gate swing, and alignment. We’ll review bent or damaged components before recommending a repair. See aluminum fencing.
Chain-link
Gate repair only.
We can evaluate chain-link gate hinges, latches, alignment, and damaged gate components. We do not offer chain-link fence installation or general chain-link fence work.

Gates built with care
These are examples from our gate and fence projects. They show our workmanship; they are not presented as before-and-after repair photos.
The right repair depends on the gate, post condition, hardware, and site.
Watch our pool gate safety video
Pool gate hinges and latches deserve a closer look.
A gate that does not reliably swing shut and latch needs attention, especially around a pool. In this 4 Tradesmen Fencing Short, Tommy calls out worn hinges and latches that may need replacement.
- We assess gate alignment, hinge movement, latch position, and post support.
- Ask about self-closing hinges and a pool safety latch when the gate needs them.
- We repair wood, vinyl, aluminum, and chain-link gates; our chain-link work is gate repair only.

Common questions
Gate repair questions
Can you fix a gate that is sagging or dragging?
We can inspect the frame, hinges, bracing, and posts. Depending on their condition, the solution might be an adjustment, hardware or support repair, or a new gate.
What if my gate will not latch?
We check alignment, hinge movement, the latch, and the post. A latch replacement alone may not solve a gate that is shifting or sagging.
Do you repair chain-link fences?
Our chain-link work is limited to gate repair. We do not install chain-link fences or take on general chain-link fence repairs.
Do you repair wood, vinyl, and aluminum gates?
Yes. We evaluate gate problems in those materials, including hinges, latches, alignment, and damaged parts. The recommended work depends on the gate’s condition.
