Monroeville fence and yard hardware that should actually latch

A gate that has to be tied shut is a hardware and post request.

A Monroeville side gate that drags, or a latch that misses, is ordinary work if the post still stands. If the post is gone, that's a fence repair — Plum deck and fence is a nearby fuller version of that job.

A loose deck rail is a safety item and should be named as one, not buried under 'odds and ends.'

After a storm, photograph the section from the yard. If the house is open, use the storm or board-up pages first.

We will not promise a pet-proof yard. We'll make the gate latch and the obvious holes sound.

Bridgeville driveway gates take winter salt on the same hardware; Bridgeville deck and fence is the spring latch-and-hinge version if the post still stands.
