Wellington’s gates do more work than gates almost anywhere else in Palm Beach County. They open for horse trailers at 5 a.m., they close behind service trucks all afternoon, and they sit through months of humidity, sun, and afternoon thunderstorms that corrode hinges and confuse circuit boards. We’re a Wellington gate company focused on three things: fixing gates that stopped working, installing gates that fit the property’s proportions, and repairing the electric openers and access systems that run them. If your gate is stuck, sagging, or silent, call (728) 203-0817 and a live person will answer.
Why Wellington Homes Are Different
Most of Wellington’s gated properties sit on larger lots than you’ll find closer to the coast, and the gates reflect that. In neighborhoods like Palm Beach Polo and the Equestrian Club, we see ornamental iron and aluminum driveway gates that span 14 to 20 feet, often with integrated keypads, intercoms, and backup battery systems. These aren’t the lightweight tube gates you’ll find on a quarter-acre suburban lot. They’re heavy, and when a hinge wears or a motor strains, the whole system notices.
The climate adds its own pressure. High humidity and intense sun eat at powder coating and clear finishes. Summer thunderstorms bring power surges that knock out control boards and leave gates half-open. And during the winter equestrian season, from November through April, a gate that won’t open doesn’t just annoy a homeowner – it stalls horse transport and event traffic on a schedule that doesn’t flex. Wellington jobs reward technicians who know the equipment, the weather, and the calendar. Those are the calls we take every week.
Styles & brands we work with
Our Main Wellington Services
Most Wellington homeowners reach out to us for one of three reasons: a gate that will not open or close, a new gate that needs to be planned and installed, or an electric opener that has stopped responding. Each service has its own Wellington page with deeper detail.
Gate Repair in Wellington
A sagging gate in Wellington is usually a hinge or post problem, and it will only get worse the longer it carries its own weight. We repair bent or worn hinges, replace sagging posts, weld cracked ornamental iron where it’s salvageable, and realign gates so they close square against the latch. Wellington’s larger custom gates put more stress on every connection point, so we check the full swing path and the latch strike, not just the visible damage. You’ll get a written price before any work starts. Learn more on our Gate Repair in Wellington page.
Gate Installation in Wellington
New gates in Wellington need to match more than the driveway’s width. They need to suit the home’s architecture, clear the turning radius of a horse trailer or a landscape truck, and meet any community or village standards that apply. We install ornamental iron and aluminum driveway gates, walk gates, and estate gates sized to the property, with the operator and access hardware planned from the first measurement. The process starts with a free measure and a written installation price. Details are on our Gate Installation in Wellington page.
Electric Gate Repair in Wellington
Wellington’s electric gates run on openers from FAAC, BFT, Linear, and Viking, among others, and the humidity plus seasonal lightning gives those systems a workout. We diagnose dead control boards, failed capacitors, misaligned photoelectric sensors, worn limit switches, and keypad or intercom faults, then replace the failed part rather than selling a whole new opener where one is not needed. A gate that opens halfway and stops is usually a sensor or a limit issue, and it’s fixable. See our Electric Gate Repair in Wellington page for the full breakdown.

Larger Wellington gates push material costs up – a 20-foot ornamental iron gate needs bigger hinges, stronger posts, and a heavier operator than a standard suburban gate. The number you see in writing before we start is the number you pay, and that price includes the diagnostic time, the repair, the cleanup, and the walk-through of what we did.

What Wellington Customers Say
"The gate screeched and dragged. They fixed the track and oiled it, and wiped down everything after so there was no mess. Quiet and kind, in and out without any fuss."
- Opal Reddick"Careful and considerate from start to finish. Our kids were playing in the yard and the crew was mindful of them the whole time. Gate opens like new and the area was spotless after."
- Marcus Teague"Electric gate was acting up. He was calm and methodical, found the bad sensor, and tidied the whole area by the gate post when he finished. No grease left on the driveway."
- Ravi Menon
