AfterGate Company in Palm Beach, FL
We’re the gate company Palm Beach homeowners call when a 1920s ornamental iron gate seizes up from salt air, or a newer estate gate operator stops talking to the whole-house automation system. Most repairs on the island run between $180 and $900 depending on what failed, and we quote the full price in writing before anyone touches a bolt. Call (940) 412-7340 and a live person answers, 24 hours a day, even on holidays.
Why Palm Beach Homes Are Different
Palm Beach is a narrow barrier island with the Atlantic on one side and the Intracoastal Waterway on the other. Every gate on this island gets salt air from both directions, year round. Hinges corrode, motor housings rust, and circuit boards oxidize at roughly twice the rate we see a mile inland in West Palm Beach. What that means for homeowners: lubricant and electrical-component servicing on a six-month cycle, not the yearly schedule that works across the bridge.
The housing stock compounds it. Many Palm Beach estates date to the 1920s through 1950s in the Addison Mizner-influenced Mediterranean Revival and Spanish Colonial styles. Their gates are custom-forged ornamental iron, often one-of-a-kind, and they cannot be swapped for an off-the-shelf panel. The Town of Palm Beach’s Architectural Commission also reviews gate appearance on historic and landmark properties, so any repair or replacement has to preserve the original ironwork rather than substitute a modern look. Newer mega-mansions on the island tend to run European operators like FAAC and BFT tied into whole-estate automation, which is its own skill set.
Our Main Palm Beach Services
Palm Beach homeowners most often call us for three things: a gate that won’t open, a gate that needs replacing, and electrical problems on an automatic operator. Each has its own Palm Beach page with full pricing and details.
Gate Repair in Palm Beach
Most repair calls on the island are hinge failures, operator malfunctions, or sagging custom gates. Salt-air corrosion is usually behind all three. We replace worn parts on site, reinforce what’s weakened, and put the written 365-Day Done Right Promise on every invoice. If the repair fails inside a year, we return and fix it at no charge. See Gate Repair in Palm Beach for prices and same-day options.
Gate Installation in Palm Beach
Installing a new gate in Palm Beach means working around ARCOM requirements on historic properties, matching ornamental ironwork where needed, and choosing hardware that will hold up to two-sided salt exposure. We measure, quote, and install with a written price before work begins. Full details on Gate Installation in Palm Beach.
Electric Gate Repair in Palm Beach
Electric gate problems in Palm Beach usually come down to corroded wiring, fried circuit boards, or operator failure from seasonal disuse. Many estates sit empty from May through October, so seals dry, limit switches drift, and battery backups drain. November is our busiest month for exactly this reason. See Electric Gate Repair in Palm Beach for diagnostic and repair pricing.

FAQs About Gate Company in Palm Beach
Repair emergencies on the island are typically same-day during season, which runs roughly November through April. Summer response is usually next-day. A live person answers the phone 24/7 at (940) 412-7340 to schedule the window.
On historic or landmarked properties, yes, if appearance changes. A straight repair that restores existing ironwork usually doesn’t trigger review. We can advise what the Town will likely require, but final approval comes from ARCOM.
Every repair carries a written 365-Day guarantee. If the same repair fails inside that period, we return and correct it at no charge. The guarantee is stamped on the invoice, not promised verbally.

What Palm Beach Customers Say
"Gate was dragging and screeching across the driveway. I figured I'd need a whole new setup. He adjusted the track and rollers and it was a fraction of what I expected. Honest work."
- Omar Haddad"Our intercom and gate motor both quit. They fixed the whole system in one visit and explained the warranty clearly. On time, polite, and tidy. Can't ask for more."
- Yvette Marchetti"Good repair on a sagging gate and a new hinge welded on. Took them a couple days to get the part in, but they told me that up front and it's been solid since."
