Iron Gate Repair & Welding in Dallas–Fort Worth
Wrought iron gates sag, crack at the welds, and rust from the bottom rail up. All of it is repairable, and repairing is almost always cheaper than replacing a custom gate you cannot buy off a shelf.
What your gate is doing, and what it usually means
Most gate faults announce themselves in a fairly specific way. Find yours below — it will tell you roughly what you are dealing with before anyone arrives.
| What you’re seeing | Usually means |
|---|---|
| Gate is sagging or dragging on the ground | Hinge wear or post movement — very common in North Texas clay |
| Cracked welds at the frame joints | Metal fatigue from years of cycling, usually re-weldable |
| Rust at the bottom rail | Water sitting in the hollow section — cut, replace and reseal |
| Gate post leaning | Footing movement, needs resetting rather than patching |
| Bent or damaged after vehicle impact | Straighten, re-weld and refinish |
| Decorative elements broken off | Fabricate and weld to match |
How we diagnose it
Assess the gate, the hinges and the posts as one system — the gate is rarely the root cause
Reset or reinforce posts where footings have moved
Cut out failed sections and re-weld
Grind, prime and refinish so the repair is not visible

Iron Gate Repair & Welding questions
My iron gate has started dragging. Is the gate bent?
Usually the post has moved, not the gate. North Texas clay expands and contracts hard between wet spring and dry summer, and gate posts move with it. Straightening the gate without addressing the post means it will drag again next season.
Can you match the finish on an older gate?
In most cases yes. We grind, prime and refinish the repaired section so it blends rather than leaving a patch.
