Latch & Post Gate Repair is a Cedarwell-family gate specialist serving Redlands homeowners with gate repair, gate installation, and electric gate repair. What sets Redlands apart from the surrounding Inland Empire cities is the age and character of its housing stock, from 1900s Victorian mansions in South Redlands to mid-century ranch homes in the north and east. Hot, dry summers and Santa Ana winds put real stress on hinges, posts, and automatic openers, and the clay soils that shift with wet winters mean gates settle out of alignment more often here than in newer developments nearby. If your gate is sagging, sticking, or failing to open smoothly, call us at (341) 895-4331 and we’ll walk you through what’s likely happening.
Why Redlands Homes Are Different
Redlands is not a new-tract city. The historic districts hold Craftsman and Victorian homes built as early as 1900, and many of them still have their original wrought-iron driveway gates. In South Redlands especially, repair work often means preserving those vintage hinges and handles rather than swapping them for modern replacements, because the character of the gate is part of the character of the house. We’ve sourced replacement hardware from local architectural salvage to keep an original gate looking original while making it solid again.
The climate works against gates year-round. Summers hit triple digits and dry out wood and metal, which leads to expansion and contraction that loosens fasteners and throws off the alignment of automatic openers. Then the fall brings Santa Ana winds, and those strong dry gusts push against a gate’s full surface area. That’s when we see wind-damaged hinges and broken wheels on slide gates across the north and east ranch neighborhoods. Add in Redlands’ clay soil, which expands in wet winters and shrinks in dry months, and you get posts that lean just enough to make a gate drag or catch. Many of our Redlands calls are adjustments for uneven ground settlement rather than full replacements.

Our Main Redlands Services
Most homeowners reach us for one of two reasons: a gate that’s failed, or a gate they no longer trust to close behind them. Each service has its own page for Redlands, with local pricing and specifics.
Gate Repair in Redlands
Gate repair in Redlands covers the mechanical side: sagging hinges, a latch that won’t catch, a wheel that’s ground down, a post that’s leaning out of plumb. Older gates in the historic districts often need the original hardware reused, which means our technician returns to the truck for a torch or a welder rather than a boxed replacement part. We start with a written price before any work begins, and we lay drop cloths and wear shoe covers inside the home every time. Gate Repair in Redlands
Gate Installation in Redlands
A new gate in Redlands has to suit the house it fronts. On a mid-century ranch, that may mean a clean steel or aluminum gate; on a Craftsman, it may mean welded steel built to echo the original ironwork. We measure, order, and schedule installations, and we coordinate the concrete work for posts so the gate doesn’t shift with the first wet winter. Every installation comes with the 365-Day Done Right Promise and a written price before we begin. Gate Installation in Redlands
Electric Gate Repair in Redlands
Automatic openers in Redlands work against the same sun, wind, and shifting ground as the gate itself. We see more opener failures in fall than any other season, when Santa Ana gusts force the motor against a gate that’s already slightly out of alignment. Our technicians are factory-trained on LiftMaster, FAAC, BFT, Linear, Viking, Ghost Controls, DoorKing, Elite, and Mighty Mule, and we carry the most common opener parts locally so most electric repairs finish in one visit.

What Redlands Customers Say
"Nice work on a sagging gate and a new hinge. The part took a few days so it was two trips, but they explained it and were tidy and polite each time."

- Derek Pulanco"Electric gate was sticking. He oiled and adjusted the track, wiped everything down after, and left no grease anywhere. Quiet, kind, and quick."
