Why Beverly Hills Homeowners Choose Gatewood Fence & Gate
Beverly Hills is a small city with big expectations. The gates here are not off-the-shelf units from a big box store. They’re custom wrought iron, steel estate gates, and automation retrofits layered over decades of change. Hal and his crew have worked on gates in the Flats and Trousdale Estates, which means we know the difference between a 1930s iron gate with a retrofitted operator and a mid-century sliding gate on a steep driveway. We don’t treat them the same, because they aren’t the same.
Hal Gatewood’s name is on the shop, and the shop has a published address and license number anyone can look up. When we finish a repair, you get the 90-Day Done Right Promise in writing. If it’s not done right, one call brings Hal back. No runaround. No fine print. We also answer the phone 24 hours a day, seven days a week. That matters when your gate fails at 11 p.m. and your cars are stuck inside.
Gate Repair Services We Offer in Beverly Hills
Gate Repair
A sagging gate almost never sags in the middle. It sags in the hinge post, and that’s where we start. We repair bent frames, cracked welds, broken hinges, and misaligned tracks without selling you a replacement gate you don’t need. Learn more about our Gate Repair in Beverly Hills.
Gate Installation
New gate work in Beverly Hills means permits. The city has its own Building & Safety Division, and every modification or replacement needs Beverly Hills-specific approval, not an LA City or LA County permit. We handle the gate, the posts, the concrete, and the paperwork with you. Learn more about our Gate Installation in Beverly Hills.
Gate Motor & Opener
A motor that won’t respond may not be a motor problem at all. In Beverly Hills, a smart-home firmware update can break the relay logic that tells the operator when to open. We diagnose the whole control chain before touching the motor. Learn more about our Gate Motor & Opener in Beverly Hills.
Gate Access Control
Keypads, intercoms, vehicle sensors, and phone-based entry systems all have to talk to each other. We service access control on nine major brands, including LiftMaster, FAAC, BFT, Linear, Viking, Ghost Controls, DoorKing, Elite, and Mighty Mule. The operator may work fine while the trigger doesn’t. We find the break.
Gate Parts & Welding
We weld on site. Your gate stays in your driveway, not on a flatbed headed to some shop. Fix the panel without the post and you’ll fix it twice, so we inspect the post, the hinges, the latch, and the welds as one system. Most Beverly Hills Gate Parts & Welding supplies live in our truck or on our shelves.
Neighborhoods We Serve in Beverly Hills
Our crews work across Beverly Hills, from the flat tree-lined streets south of Santa Monica Boulevard up into the hills north of Sunset. We’re typically able to reach most Beverly Hills addresses the same day you call.
- The Flats - 1920s-1940s Spanish Colonial Revival and English Tudor estates with ornate original iron gates and layered automation retrofits
- Trousdale Estates - mid-century modern homes with low-profile sliding or swing gates on steep driveways
- Beverly Hills Gateway - large estate lots with custom steel and wrought iron work
- Benedict Canyon border area - canyon-adjacent properties that feel Santa Ana wind force directly
Why Beverly Hills’s Climate & Housing Affect Gate Repair
Santa Ana wind events funnel through the canyons bordering Beverly Hills and hit large ornate swing gates with sustained lateral force. Over a few seasons, that force accelerates hinge wear and stresses the weld points on heavy custom ironwork. We see gates in the Flats with hinge pins worn oval from years of wind loading long before the motor gives out. In Trousdale and along the hillside roads north of Sunset, winter rains cause enough soil movement to throw gate posts out of plumb within a single season. A gate that bound against the latch in September may scrape the driveway by February, not because the gate changed, but because the ground under the post did. Flat-lot driveways in the Flats have their own problem: below-grade motor housings that flood during winter rains, which few gate operators survive without attention.

Yes. Beverly Hills is an independent municipality with its own Building & Safety Division. Gate modifications and replacements require a Beverly Hills-specific permit and inspection, not an LA City or LA County permit. We handle that process with you so you don’t get surprised mid-project.
Often the motor is fine and the control signal is the problem. In Beverly Hills, many gates are tied into whole-home systems like Crestron, Control4, or Savant. A firmware update on the home side can silently break the relay logic that tells the gate operator to open. We work alongside AV and smart-home integrators to find the real break, not just the obvious one. Call (559) 844-6989 and we’ll talk through what you’re seeing.
Yes. We weld on site, which means your gate stays in your driveway instead of being hauled off to a shop. Hal has been welding since 2001, and he’ll tell you if a repair is worth doing or if you’re throwing good money at a gate that’s past its useful life. We don’t upsell. We tell you what we’d do if it were our gate.

What Beverly Hills Customers Say
"Welded the hinge back onto our wrought iron gate on site rather than taking it away for a fortnight. Ground it back and painted it and you cannot see the repair."
- Winston Achterberg"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"Hundred and forty feet of cedar privacy fence, all posts set in concrete, all of it dead level on ground that is anything but. He walked the line with me twice before a single hole was dug."
- Judith Stallworth
