AfterGate Repair Services in Beverly Hills, CA
When a gate stops working in Beverly Hills, the repair call is rarely just about a hinge or a motor. Most of the homes we work on here have a layered setup: a custom iron gate, an operator wired into a Crestron or Savant system, an intercom, and often a security director who needs to approve anyone stepping onto the property. We understand that dynamic because we’ve been working inside it for years. Call Gatewood Fence & Gate at (818) 514-7606 and you’ll get a live person who knows the difference between a Trousdale Estates gate call and one in the flats south of Sunset.

Why Beverly Hills Homeowners Choose Gatewood Fence & Gate
Hal Gatewood’s name is on the shop, and the shop is down the road. That’s the oldest accountability there is, and in a city where homeowners are rightfully cautious about who gets past the gate, that matters. We’ve fixed gates in Beverly Hills for long enough that the common failure points on a 1930s Spanish Colonial in the flats don’t surprise us anymore, and neither does a mid-century modern in Trousdale whose new operator got specced without enough torque for the grade. Every job carries our 90-Day Done Right Promise in writing. Not “up to” 90 days. Not “in most cases.” If it’s not done right, one call brings us back. The person who answers that call may well be the same person who welded your gate in the driveway instead of hauling it to a shop.
We’re not a franchise. We don’t route calls through a call center. We’re a local, owner-operated gate repair company, and when you call (818) 514-7606 at 11 at night because a gate arm bent in a Santa Ana wind event, a person picks up. Not a voicemail menu.
Gate Repair Services We Offer in Beverly Hills
Gate Repair
A sagging ornamental iron gate on a 1920s French Normandy house in the flats is usually a hinge-post problem, not a panel problem. We fix the post and the hinge geometry instead of hanging a new gate on a failing foundation and calling it done. If you’ve got a gate that scrapes, leans, or won’t latch, we’ll find the actual cause and weld the fix on site.

Gate Installation
A new gate in Beverly Hills means more than picking a style from a catalog. We measure for grade, wind load, and the existing driveway approach, then build or order to those numbers. Whether you’re replacing a curb-cut pedestrian gate or a full vehicle entry on a hillside lot, the gate gets engineered for this property, not this zip code in general.
Learn more about our Gate Installation in Beverly Hills.
Gate Motor & Opener
Steep grades in the hills north of Sunset put a serious load on gate operators. A motor specced for a flat driveway in Santa Monica will strip its drive gear within a season on a Trousdale slope. We service and install operators with incline-rated torque specs, and we’re certified on LiftMaster, FAAC, BFT, Linear, Viking, Ghost Controls, DoorKing, and Elite.

Gate Access Control
Most Beverly Hills gate calls involve more than the gate itself. There’s an intercom, a keypad or phone-based entry system, often a Crestron integration, and sometimes a security firm on the other end of the line who needs to verify credentials before we touch a panel. We coordinate with estate managers and security directors directly, and we don’t leave until the gate, the operator, and the access system all talk to each other.

Gate Parts & Welding
We keep a truck stocked with the common parts, and we weld on site. That means a broken decorative finial, a sheared hinge pin, or a cracked panel on a 1940s Tudor gate doesn’t mean the gate leaves your driveway. Hal fixes it right where it stands.

Why Beverly Hills’s Climate & Housing Affect Gate Repair
Beverly Hills splits into two repair environments, and we plan for both. South of Sunset, the housing stock runs to 1920s through 1950s Spanish Colonial, French Normandy, and Tudor properties. Their original ornamental wrought-iron gates are beautiful and often carrying decades of deferred hardware wear. The hinge posts were set before modern welding standards, and the iron has endured 80 years of marine-layer moisture. North of Sunset, the story changes. Trousdale Estates mid-century moderns sit on grades that require operators with real torque specs and hinge geometry sized for an incline. A standard residential operator installed by someone who doesn’t know Beverly Hills will fail. We know the difference because we work both sides of Sunset every week.
Then there’s the wind. Santa Ana events push large dual-leaf swing gates to their limit in a single night. We see bent arms, stripped drive gears, and blown control boards all at once after a big wind event. The marine layer that settles into the hills accelerates rust pitting on decorative iron and corrodes low-voltage terminal connections faster than in the drier flatlands of West Hollywood. A gate that worked fine in September can show a dead keypad terminal in February, and it’s usually corrosion, not a bad board.

FAQs About Gate Repair in Beverly Hills
In most cases, yes. We keep repair trucks staged to reach Beverly Hills quickly, and we carry the common parts and welding gear on board. A live person answers the phone around the clock, so call (818) 514-7606 and we’ll tell you straight when someone can be there, not put you into a dispatch queue.
All the time. A meaningful share of our Beverly Hills work happens at properties where a professional security director or estate manager has to approve access before a technician touches the gate, the intercom, or the access control panel. We’re used to coordinating access, providing credentials, and reporting back when the job is done. It’s a normal part of the work here, not an exception.
Maybe not. Beverly Hills Building & Safety is its own independent municipality with its own permit requirements, setback rules, and sight-line standards for gate operator installations. A contractor who pulls a City of Los Angeles permit on a Beverly Hills job will fail inspection, and we’ve seen it happen. If you’re unsure whether your existing operator was permitted correctly, we can assess the installation and tell you honestly what it will take to bring it into compliance. Call us for a free estimate and a straight answer.
We’re certified on LiftMaster, FAAC, BFT, Linear, Viking, Ghost Controls, DoorKing, and Elite. The most common opener we see in Beverly Hills is LiftMaster, and we keep the common LiftMaster boards and gears on the truck so we don’t burn a second trip for parts. If you have an operator from any of those brands, we can fix it, and we’ll quote the repair before we touch anything.
Most repair visits run between $180 and $600, depending on whether we’re fixing a hinge, a post, a drive gear, or a control board. The price is locked in writing before work starts, and you get $40 off any repair over $200. If you already have a written estimate from another company, we’ll give you a free second opinion. Call (818) 514-7606 for an exact quote, with no trip charge inside the county.
If your home‘s gate is acting up, sagging, or simply won’t open, call us at (818) 514-7606. We’ll answer, we’ll show up, and the price we quote on the phone is the price you’ll pay. That’s how Hal Gatewood has operated since 2001, and that’s the deal in Beverly Hills too.

What Beverly Hills Customers Say
"Safety photo eyes on our old gate had been bypassed by whoever serviced it last, which he was genuinely annoyed about on my behalf. Fitted proper sealed ones and wired them the way they should be."
- Otis Redmond"Fitted a keypad and an intercom so my mother can let carers in without coming down the drive. He set it up and then made her practise with it until she was comfortable."
- Lucinda Marchbanks"He builds the gates himself in his own shop. You can go and look at it. That is not something you can say about the outfits that just order a panel in."
- Doreen Whitfield
