Fixing a Sagging Fence Gate

Wood fence designs are popular choices for front yards, but keeping your fencing in good shape can be important for maintaining your property’s curb appeal. Does your home feature a wooden fence in Hillsdale? If so, then the weight of the gate may cause it to sag. If you’re experiencing this issue, then watch this video to learn how to fix a sagging gate on your fencing.

To help keep a heavy gate at the right angle, you may need to upgrade to a set of larger hinges and screws. Also, choosing powder-coated screws can help prevent the metal from rusting. Install the hinges at an angle that is opposite of the gate to help the screws stay in place. When attaching the gate to the fence, prop the gate up so that the top of the gate is at the same height as the top of the fence.
