Gates & Gate Hardware in Celina, TX

Gates take the most abuse on any fence. Proper framing and hardware stop sagging. Celina Fence Pros connects Celina homeowners with a local fence contractor who can evaluate your situation and explain your options.

Gates take more stress than any other part of a fence. Sagging usually comes from undersized posts, weak hinges or no diagonal bracing. Options include steel gate frames, heavier hinges, drop rods, latches that can be locked, and wider double gates for trailers or mowers. Ask how the hinge post is set and whether a steel frame is recommended for wide gates.

FAQ

What about pool gates? Pool barriers generally need self-closing, self-latching gates; check local code.

What happens if my fence crosses a property line? Property lines can be tricky, especially on rural tracts. A survey or plat helps confirm where the line is before building.
