Why Ironworks Gate Co. of New York City Is Roosevelt’s Preferred Gate Parts & Welding Company
We’ve been serving Nassau County’s South Shore for over 42 years, and Roosevelt’s mix of 1950s-60s housing presents gate problems we’ve seen hundreds of times.

Our Gate Parts & Welding Services in Roosevelt
Hinge Replacement
Roosevelt’s salt-laden air off Hempstead Bay freezes hinges solid on gates that haven’t been serviced in years. We stock heavy-duty ball-bearing hinges rated for coastal corrosion, and when the original mounting holes are wallowed out, we weld new hinge plates rather than forcing oversized bolts. A typical hinge replacement in Roosevelt runs $180-$340, including removal of the seized hardware.
Post Replacement
This is where Roosevelt’s sandy South Shore soil makes all the difference. Posts set too shallow - or without proper drainage in sandy ground - heave every winter and rack the gate frame out of square. We set replacement posts to 30 inches minimum with a concrete collar that sheds water, and we check plumb with a spirit level, not by eye. Post replacement in Roosevelt typically costs $650-$1,200 depending on gate width and soil conditions. On a 1963 Cape Cod on Madison Avenue, we found a sagging driveway gate that the homeowner blamed on worn hinges. Our crew checked the post depth and discovered a 10-inch frost heave had tilted the post 3 degrees out of plumb. We replaced the post - set to 30 inches with concrete collar - and kept the original wrought-iron gate by welding a new hinge stile, saving the homeowner nearly $1,200 versus full replacement.
Rail Repair & Custom Welding
When a wrought-iron rail cracks at the weld or a chain-link frame bends from impact, we don’t replace the whole gate unless it’s truly necessary. Our mobile welding rig lets us repair rails in place, match existing profiles, and grind smooth for repainting. Custom welding in Roosevelt runs $280-$580 for most rail repairs, with full gate fabrication quoted to spec.
Gate Rollers, Latches & Locks
Original galvanized rollers on Roosevelt’s older gates seize solid after decades of salt exposure. We source modern sealed-bearing replacements that fit existing tracks, and when the original latch or lock is obsolete, we fabricate mounting adapters so you don’t lose the gate’s character. Roller and latch work in Roosevelt typically falls between $220-$450.

Trusted Brands We Service in Roosevelt
We’re trained and equipped on nine gate-automation brands: LiftMaster, FAAC, BFT, Linear, Viking, Ghost Controls, DoorKing, Elite, and Mighty Mule. For Roosevelt homeowners with older openers, this matters - parts for 1990s LiftMaster and FAAC units are often discontinued, but our inventory includes refurbished and cross-compatible components that keep legacy systems running. We stock common failure items locally, so most Roosevelt customers don’t wait on shipping.
Common Gate Parts & Welding Problems We See in Roosevelt Homes
- Original 1950s-60s galvanized chain-link gate hardware is rusted beyond adjustment. Hinges frozen solid from years of salt air off nearby Hempstead Bay can’t be freed with penetrating oil - the pin and barrel are fused. We cut them out and weld new heavy-duty hardware to the existing frame.
- Post heaving in sandy South Shore soil racks old wrought-iron gates out of square. This causes rollers to jump tracks and latches to misalign. Technicians who skip checking post plumb and depth before adjusting hardware get callbacks within a season when the gate sags again.
- Early one-piece and sectional driveway doors from Roosevelt’s post-WWII housing boom have obsolete spring systems and openers. Parts for LiftMaster or FAAC units from the 1990s are often discontinued, but we maintain sources for legacy components and can advise when retrofit makes more sense than repair.
- Corrosion has eaten through hinge stiles and latch mounts on original wrought-iron gates. Rather than scrapping a gate with decades of patina, we fabricate replacement weldments that preserve the original design while restoring structural integrity.

FAQs - Gate Parts & Welding in Roosevelt
Yes, we fabricate mounting adapters for obsolete latches and locks when exact replacements are no longer manufactured. For a 1960s gate near Washington Street, we recently welded a custom strike plate to accept a modern deadbolt while preserving the original thumb-latch appearance. Call (877) 326-7055 and we’ll assess what’s possible - estimates are free.
In Roosevelt, it’s usually the posts. Sandy South Shore soil heaves during freeze-thaw cycles, tilting posts out of plumb and making gates appear to sag at the hinges. We check post depth and plumb before touching hardware - skipping this step is why other technicians get called back within a season. Proper post replacement with a 30-inch concrete collar solves it permanently. Call (877) 326-7055 for diagnosis.
Many 1980s and 1990s LiftMaster and FAAC parts are discontinued, but we maintain sources for refurbished and cross-compatible components. When parts are truly exhausted, we’ll quote a retrofit that preserves your gate structure while upgrading the operator. Our $89 Seasonal Tune-Up includes an honest assessment of parts availability. Call (877) 326-7055 to schedule.
Almost never. Modern sealed-bearing rollers can be adapted to existing tracks, and the gate frame itself often has decades of life left if corrosion is addressed. We replace rollers for $220-$450 in most Roosevelt cases, versus $1,800-plus for full replacement. Call (877) 326-7055 for a free second opinion on any replacement quote.
Thirty inches minimum, with a concrete collar that sheds water away from the post base. Roosevelt’s sandy, well-drained soil doesn’t hold posts the way clay does, and shallow setting - common in original 1950s installations - guarantees frost heave. We set to 30 inches, check plumb with a spirit level, and backfill with tamped crushed stone for drainage. Call (877) 326-7055 if your post is leaning.
