Gate repair · Palm Beach, FL

Off-track, dead motor, snapped chain, bent frame, failed sensor.

Start with what it is actually doing. A gate that hums and does not move is a different fault from one that moves and will not latch, which is different again from one that opens and immediately reverses. Each points somewhere specific.

Most coastal failures are corrosion working out of sight — a seized hinge, a bottom rail rusted through from the inside, a board that has been breathing salt air for years.

Everything within a few blocks of open water runs on the same clock: salt reaches fixings, hinges and enclosures whether or not the house faces the ocean.

Different county, different approval route

Because Palm Beach is outside the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, the approvals a Miami-Dade contractor quotes from memory are the wrong ones here. What Palm Beach actually requires is set locally, and where a town or an association runs its own design guidelines those shape the finish as much as the code shapes the frame.

Worth knowing

  • Diagnose on site
  • Parts on the truck
  • Re-tuned before we leave
  • Every brand
  • Specified for salt exposure
Is the paperwork the same as Miami?
No. Palm Beach is outside the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, so it is a different product-approval set, and permitting is administered locally on top of that.
Why is the spec different up here?
Palm Beach County sits outside the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone that governs Miami-Dade and Broward, so the approval route the counties south of it use is the wrong one.
You didn't install it — will you still touch it?
Yes. We service every major operator brand, whoever put it in.
Repair or replace?
We diagnose first and tell you which is worth doing. Sometimes it is one part.
