Expert Gate Repair in Fort Smith, AR

A broken or sagging gate is more than an eyesore. It leaves your yard open to trespassers, lets pets escape, and signals neglect to anyone passing by. Poor Boy Fencing handles gate repair for Fort Smith, AR homeowners who need the problem fixed right. We inspect the full gate system: hinges, latch hardware, posts, and frame alignment. Fort Smith's humid summers, heavy spring storms, and clay-heavy soils put real stress on gate posts and hardware over time. Posts can shift or rot at ground level, hinges work loose, and frames rack out of square after a hard wind. We address the root cause, not just the visible damage. Whether your gate drags, won't latch, or leans off its post, we assess what needs repair versus what needs replacement. Call Poor Boy Fencing to schedule an on-site look at your gate.

Common questions about gate repair in Fort Smith, AR.

Yes, a sagging gate in Fort Smith is one of the most common repairs we handle. We check the hinge system and post stability first, then correct the alignment so the gate swings and latches cleanly.

A post that rocks, leans, or shows rot at ground level usually needs replacement, not just a patch. We inspect the post on-site in Fort Smith and give you a clear answer before any work begins.

Do you need pressure washing? Poorboy Fencing should be the only place you look. After looking at the competition, I opted for Poorboy. The crew was out in a matter of a days. I contacted them on a Wednesday and they were out by Friday afternoon. I wanted my driveway pressure washed before the holidays. Poorboy offered the most competitive pricing by far. Poorboy arrived and conducted themselves most professionally. It was slated for an hour to complete the job. However, they were done well before the hour. Was that it? No. While chatting with the Poorboy crew, the subject of fencing came up. They noticed my gate was a bit askew. And it most definitely was; the gate has been sagging (I did not know that this was the term) for years. The Poorboy crew mentioned that they could fix that. I thought that was spectacular that they offered. I assumed that they would need to make an appointment and come back. But, I was happily surprised again. They offered to, if I purchased the parts, they would repair the sag. They told me what was needed. I picked up the parts. They returned later in the day and corrected the sag in the gate. I greatly appreciate everything that Poorboy was able to do for me. I would hire them again for anything that they could do for me.
