AfterGate Company in Hollywood, FL
Gate repair in Hollywood means working on equipment that has spent decades fighting salt air, humidity, and hurricane seasons. Most of the gates we service here sit at the entrances to established communities and 1950s – 80s condo buildings, mounted on concrete pillars that are often spalling around the anchors. That combination of aging hardware, coastal corrosion, and HOA-driven deferred maintenance means Hollywood calls skew heavily toward rehabilitation, not replacement for its own sake. If your gate is stuck, grinding, or dead, call (828) 426-7081 and we’ll give you a written price before any work starts.
Why Hollywood Homes Are Different
Hollywood’s housing stock is largely concrete-block single-family homes and low-rise condos built between the 1950s and the 1980s, and a large share of those sit inside HOA communities with ornamental aluminum or wrought-iron entry gates. The gates themselves are usually mounted on concrete pillars that have absorbed decades of moisture, which means we regularly open up a job to find spalled concrete around the hinge anchors. The mechanical repair often has to be paired with masonry patch work just to get the gate back to a stable mounting surface.
The climate does the rest. Salt-laden air from the Atlantic and the Intracoastal Waterway corrodes hinges, operator arms, lock solenoids, and circuit boards noticeably faster than inland Broward. On any Hollywood gate older than ten years, galvanic corrosion where dissimilar metals meet is the most common finding we see, right before a seized hinge pin or a dead limit switch. Add the annual hurricane ritual of pinning swing gates so they don’t wind-sail, and the hinges and welds here take more abuse in one year than an inland gate sees in five.
Then there’s the snowbird pattern. A lot of Hollywood community gates sit mostly dormant from roughly May through October, soaking in peak humidity and salt air without cycling. Come November, the daily open-and-close cycles return all at once, and the seasonal restart failures show up in clusters: capacitor failures, corroded limit switches, seized hinge pins. We keep that autumn pattern in mind when we diagnose, because the failure that looks sudden usually started months earlier while the gate was sitting still.
Our Main Hollywood Services
These are the three calls we answer most from Hollywood homeowners and HOA property managers, each with its own dedicated page.
Gate Repair in Hollywood
Most Hollywood gate repair calls involve swing gates that have stopped closing fully, started grinding, or sagged off their hinges. Here, that usually traces back to salt corrosion on the hinge pins or spalled anchors in the concrete pillars. We rebuild the mechanical side first, then confirm the operator is aligned to the repaired geometry. Gate Repair in Hollywood
Electric Gate Repair in Hollywood
Electric gate issues in Hollywood frequently show up as intermittent operation after heavy rain or after months of dormancy. Corroded terminals, moisture in the control box, and failing safety-edge sensors are the regular culprits. We test the full circuit, identify what’s actually failing, and quote the fix in writing before starting. Electric Gate Repair in Hollywood
Gate Motor Repair in Hollywood
The gate motor, the box that slides or swings your gate automatically, takes the brunt of Hollywood’s salt air. Capacitors fail after long idle stretches, circuit boards corrode, and arm brackets seize. When a motor fails here, we check the whole drivetrain rather than swapping one part and walking away, because the next failure is usually already underway. Gate Motor Repair in Hollywood

Pricing for Gate Company in Hollywood, FL
| Service | Typical range in Hollywood |
|---|---|
| Gate hinge replacement or rebuild | $180 – $420 |
| Gate wheel or roller replacement | $140 – $320 |
| Gate operator (motor) replacement | $650 – $1,450 |

Two things push Hollywood pricing up compared to inland Broward: the corrosion damage underneath what looks like a simple fix, and the masonry work that’s often needed around the pillar anchors before the gate can be safely rehung. The pillar anchor line above is common enough here that it’s in the table, not an afterthought. Every price we quote is in writing and agreed before we start, so the number you see on the estimate is the number you pay.

FAQs About Gate Company in Hollywood
We answer live 24/7 and schedule Hollywood calls for same-day or next-day service in nearly all cases. A gate stuck open is a security problem, and a gate stuck closed blocks residents, so we prioritize those calls. Call (828) 426-7081 and we’ll give you a straight arrival window.
For a private single-home gate, no. For a shared HOA entry gate, the property manager or board usually needs to approve the job, and we’ll work with them directly on the diagnosis and written estimate so the approval moves quickly.
We do both, which matters in Hollywood where spalled concrete around gate anchors is common. We’ll assess the pillar condition on the initial visit and fold the masonry work into the same written quote so the gate is sound mechanically and mounted to a stable surface.
If your gate in Hollywood is grinding, stuck, or completely dead, call (828) 426-7081 for a written price before we start. Cole Rafferty leads our Hollywood operations, and every technician arrives with a name and photo sent to you in advance, a badge at the door, and a written price in hand.

What Hollywood Customers Say
"Fair price and no pushing a whole new gate when all I needed was a new motor capacitor."
- Shirley A."The vetted tech thing was important since our gate protects the whole property. Careful, polite, and walked me through every safety sensor."
- Russell W."Swing gate wouldn't latch after the hinge sagged. He re-hung it, adjusted the hinge pins, and fixed the latch. Quoted before starting."
