Gatewood Fence & Gate in Virginia

Gatewood Fence & Gate brings honest gate repair to Virginia homeowners who are tired of hearing “replace the whole thing” when what they need is a weld, a realignment, or a motor reset. Hal Gatewood has been at this since 2001, and his name is on the shop, the truck, and every invoice. When you call, you get a live person around the clock, not a voicemail tree or a call center three states away. As part of the Locally family, Gatewood carries a promise that matters in Virginia’s small towns and rural counties: the price on the phone matches the price at your gate, and the owner who answers is the owner who shows up.

Why Virginia Homeowners Choose Gatewood Fence & Gate

Virginia’s got its share of long gravel drives, historic farm entrances, and subdivision gates that take a beating from freeze-thaw cycles and the occasional hurricane remnant. Hal Gatewood knows the difference between a gate that needs replacing and one that needs somebody who can actually weld on-site. He fixes what’s in your driveway rather than hauling it off to sell you something new. That repair-first philosophy has kept him busy for over twenty-nine years, and it is stamped in writing on every job through his 90-Day Done Right Promise. One call brings him back. No runaround, no fine print.

His technicians are background-checked and uniformed, and they are certified to service nine major gate brands: LiftMaster, FAAC, BFT, Linear, Viking, Ghost Controls, DoorKing, Elite, and Mighty Mule. Whether your automatic gate is hanging crooked on a Loudoun County horse farm or your keypad stopped reading in a Richmond exurb, Hal’s team has the parts and the know-how to fix it where it sits.

The pricing is upfront and does not require haggling. There is no trip charge inside the county, $40 off any repair over $200, a free second opinion on any written estimate you have already been handed, and a permanent 10% discount for seniors and veterans. Hal publishes his address and license number because he wants you to look him up before you call. That is the Locally standard, and it is how you know he is not passing through.

Backed by the Locally Family

Locally started in 1997 when a retired county extension agent named Ward Selby got fed up hearing the same story: out-of-state plates, a phone quote that tripled at the door, and then a dead number. He wrote down what a homeowner could verify in five minutes: a local phone number a person answers, an address you can drive to, the owner’s name and face, and a license number you can look up. Gatewood Fence & Gate meets that standard, which is why Hal carries the Locally name.

The L.O.C.A.L. values code still applies to every job across Virginia. Local roots mean Hal lives here, not three states away. On time means the window he gives you is the window. Community first means hiring and buying here. Accountable means his name is on the work. Loyal means he would rather keep you for twenty years than win one big ticket. That is the Locally guarantee, and it is stamped on every Gatewood repair in Virginia.
