Why Abbey Fence & Deck includes 2 Years of Free Gate Maintenance & Adjustments
A gate is one of the most frequently used components of any fence system. Whether it’s protecting your backyard, securing a pool area, or providing convenient access to your property, your gate experiences constant wear from daily use and changing weather conditions.
Why Gates Need Maintenance
Even professionally installed gates can require occasional adjustments over time. Normal factors that can affect gate performance include:
-
Ground settling
-
Seasonal expansion and contraction
-
Frequent opening and closing
-
Hardware loosening
-
Natural movement of fence materials
These changes can cause gates to sag, drag, stick, or become difficult to latch.
Regular maintenance helps ensure your gate continues to operate safely, smoothly, and reliably.
