Our Gate Services in Garland, TX
Wrought Iron Gates
Real wrought iron and heavy solid-bar steel make the best-looking driveway gates in Garland and the hardest ones to keep hanging straight. A twelve-foot iron leaf can weigh four hundred pounds, and every ounce of it lands on one post set in ground that will not hold still.
Ornamental Steel Gates
Ornamental steel gets you the look of forged iron out of formed tube and pressed components, at roughly half the weight. In Garland that weight difference is not a cosmetic detail.
Garage Gate Installation
Garage and parking-structure gates are the one job in Garland where the soil mostly stops mattering. The gate mounts to a slab that was engineered and poured, not to a post in clay.
Aluminum Gates
Aluminum is the right answer for a lot of Garland driveways. It will not rust, it takes powder coat beautifully, and a welded aluminum leaf runs roughly a third the weight of the same gate in steel.
Wood Gates
A cedar driveway gate warms up a brick elevation in a way no metal gate manages. The problem in Garland is that wood and the ground under it are both moving on the same seasonal clock, in the same direction, and neither one is being helpful to the other.
Vinyl & Composite Gates
This is the page where we talk most people out of something. Vinyl and composite make sense as fencing across Garland, and they make a poor driveway gate on their own.
Sliding Gates
Slide gates suit driveways that are short on swing room, on a slope, or facing straight onto a busy Garland street where a swinging leaf would reach into traffic. There are two ways to build one, and the ground here has strong opinions about which of them you should choose.
Swing Gates
Swing gates are the default across most of Garland. They need two footings rather than a run of concrete, they open fast, and the hardware stays adjustable for decades.
Cantilever Gates
A cantilever gate carries its whole weight on roller trucks mounted to posts on one side, with nothing touching the ground across the driveway. On Garland lots that is a genuine advantage, because the opening itself is the part of a property you can least rely on to stay flat.
Bi-Fold & Vertical Pivot Gates
Bifold and vertical pivot gates open in half the space a swing gate needs, far faster than a slide gate. They are excellent equipment.
Automatic Gate Operators
Before we sell you an operator, we want to look at the gate. In Garland a surprising share of automation complaints are not electrical faults at all.
Access Control & Keypads
A keypad is the cheapest good decision in access control. Guests, cleaners and delivery drivers get in without a remote, and codes change in a minute.
Telephone Entry Systems
Telephone entry is right when the people who need in are not the people who live there. A visitor scrolls a directory, presses call, and the phone that rings is yours wherever you are.
Safety Sensors & UL 325 Compliance
UL 325 is the standard that keeps an automatic gate from closing on a child, a pet or a car. It is not paperwork, and in Garland the reason installations drift out of compliance is the ground rather than the wiring.
Gate Motors & Solar Power
Solar gate operators are genuinely useful equipment, and in Garland they are usually the second-best answer. Before we quote a panel and a battery bank, we would rather price the trench, because on most lots here the trench is short, easy and cheaper over the life of the gate.
Custom & Estate Gates
An estate entry is a piece of architecture that happens to move. Custom scrollwork, monogram panels, arched top rails and masonry columns are the visible part.
Security Fencing & Perimeter
A gate is only as good as what stands beside it. Ornamental steel and aluminum fencing, welded panel, and heavier commercial-grade systems all get built and installed by the same shop that builds your gate, so the picket spacing, rail height and finish actually match instead of nearly matching.
Commercial & Industrial Gates
Commercial gates are graded on uptime, not appearance. A stuck gate at a distribution yard off I-30 stops trucks in the street.
Welding & Gate Fabrication
We run our own metal shop, so much of our work is repair, not replacement. When a gate here goes wrong the metal is usually fine and the geometry is not, and geometry is fixed with a jack, a level and a welder rather than a purchase order.
Emergency Gate Service
A gate that will not open traps you at home. A gate that will not close leaves your property open all night.

Wrought Iron Gates
Real wrought iron and heavy solid-bar steel make the best-looking driveway gates in Garland and the hardest ones to keep hanging straight. A twelve-foot iron leaf can weigh four hundred pounds, and every ounce of it lands on one post set in ground that will not hold still. Blackland Prairie clay takes on water and swells, then dries out and shrinks back, and the top several feet do nearly all of that travel.
- custom wrought iron gates
- ornamental iron driveway gates
- iron ranch entry gates
- iron estate gates
- arched wrought iron gates
- powder-coated iron gates
- wrought iron gate repair
- iron gate re-welding
- rust removal and re-coating
- hand-forged scrollwork and finials
- iron gate hinge and post replacement
Ornamental Steel Gates
Ornamental steel gets you the look of forged iron out of formed tube and pressed components, at roughly half the weight. In Garland that weight difference is not a cosmetic detail. It decides how hard your hinge post has to fight the ground underneath it.
- ornamental steel driveway gates
- galvanized steel gates
- steel picket gates
- powder-coated steel gates
- 14-gauge steel gate frames
- steel gate fabrication
- steel gate repair and re-welding
- steel security gates
- flat-top and spear-top steel gates
- hot-dip galvanized gate frames
- steel gate widening and cut-down
Garage Gate Installation
Garage and parking-structure gates are the one job in Garland where the soil mostly stops mattering. The gate mounts to a slab that was engineered and poured, not to a post in clay. What replaces soil as the problem is the apron where that slab meets the driveway.

- roll up security gate for garage

- sliding garage gates

Aluminum Gates
Aluminum is the right answer for a lot of Garland driveways. It will not rust, it takes powder coat beautifully, and a welded aluminum leaf runs roughly a third the weight of the same gate in steel. On ground that shifts every season, weight is the variable to reduce.
- aluminum driveway gates
- powder-coated aluminum gates
- rust-free aluminum gates
- lightweight automated gates
- aluminum pedestrian gates
- aluminum gate installation
- aluminum gate repair
- low-maintenance driveway gates
- aluminum gate panel replacement
- aluminum horizontal slat gates
- aluminum gate hinge bushings
Wood Gates
A cedar driveway gate warms up a brick elevation in a way no metal gate manages. The problem in Garland is that wood and the ground under it are both moving on the same seasonal clock, in the same direction, and neither one is being helpful to the other. Wood drinks moisture through a wet April and gives it back through a hundred-degree August.
- wood driveway gates
- cedar gates
- horizontal-slat wood gates
- steel-framed wood gates
- board-on-board privacy gates
- wood gate staining and sealing
- sagging wood gate repair
- wood gate re-slatting
- custom wood entrance gates
- wood and iron combination gates
- redwood entrance gates
Vinyl & Composite Gates
This is the page where we talk most people out of something. Vinyl and composite make sense as fencing across Garland, and they make a poor driveway gate on their own. Before you spend money here, it is worth knowing exactly which version works and which version fails.
- vinyl driveway gates
- composite gates
- PVC privacy gates
- vinyl gate installation
- steel-reinforced vinyl gates
- composite slat gates
- vinyl gate repair
- low-maintenance privacy gates
- vinyl gate and fence packages
- composite wood-grain slat gates
- vinyl gate post re-setting
Sliding Gates
Slide gates suit driveways that are short on swing room, on a slope, or facing straight onto a busy Garland street where a swinging leaf would reach into traffic. There are two ways to build one, and the ground here has strong opinions about which of them you should choose. A V-track gate rolls on wheels riding a steel track fixed to concrete, and that track runs the full length of the gate plus the opening.

- V-track slide gates
- roller gate installation
- slide gate off track repair
- slide gate wheels and bearings
- slide gate operator installation
- slide gate track cleaning
- narrow driveway gates
- slide gate end stop installation
- slide gate chain replacement
Swing Gates
Swing gates are the default across most of Garland. They need two footings rather than a run of concrete, they open fast, and the hardware stays adjustable for decades. What they need from us is a hinge post with an honest chance against the clay.
- swing driveway gates
- single swing gates
- dual swing gates
- swing gate operators
- articulated arm gate openers
- underground swing gate operators
- dragging swing gate repair
- swing gate hinge replacement
- swing gate post setting
- ball-bearing gate hinges
- cane bolt and drop rod sleeves
Cantilever Gates
A cantilever gate carries its whole weight on roller trucks mounted to posts on one side, with nothing touching the ground across the driveway. On Garland lots that is a genuine advantage, because the opening itself is the part of a property you can least rely on to stay flat. The trade is that a cantilever depends on three or four posts staying in the same plane as each other.

- cantilever gate installation
- truck-rated cantilever gates
- cantilever roller replacement
- commercial cantilever gates
- no-track slide gates
- industrial slide gates
- cantilever gate counterbalance
- cantilever gate repair
- cantilever post footing design
- galvanized cantilever frames
Bi-Fold & Vertical Pivot Gates
Bifold and vertical pivot gates open in half the space a swing gate needs, far faster than a slide gate. They are excellent equipment. On most Garland driveways they are also more gate than the job requires, and we would rather say so first.
- bi-fold gates
- vertical pivot gates
- fast-opening gates
- bi-folding speed gates
- vertical lift gates
- short driveway gates
- high-security bi-fold gates
- vertical pivot gate operators
- steep driveway gate solutions
- vertical pivot bearing replacement
- speed gate installation
Automatic Gate Operators
Before we sell you an operator, we want to look at the gate. In Garland a surprising share of automation complaints are not electrical faults at all. They are a mechanical problem in a gate whose geometry changed since the day somebody programd the controller.
- automatic gate opener installation
- swing gate operators
- slide gate operators
- LiftMaster gate openers
- DoorKing and FAAC operators
- Ramset and Apollo operators
- Class I-IV operator classifications
- gate operator repair
- gate opener control board replacement
- gate operator limit switch adjustment
- battery backup and surge protection
Access Control & Keypads
A keypad is the cheapest good decision in access control. Guests, cleaners and delivery drivers get in without a remote, and codes change in a minute. What decides whether it still works in five years is not the keypad.
- gate keypad installation
- video intercom entry
- card and fob readers
- smartphone gate access
- wireless gate keypads
- multi-user access codes
- keypad and remote repair
- vehicle exit loops
- gate access control for HOAs
- keypad wiring and rewiring
- long-range tag reader installation
Telephone Entry Systems
Telephone entry is right when the people who need in are not the people who live there. A visitor scrolls a directory, presses call, and the phone that rings is yours wherever you are. For gated streets and homes with steady visitor traffic, nothing else is as practical.
- telephone entry systems
- DoorKing telephone entry
- gate directory systems
- apartment call box installation
- HOA telephone entry programming
- cellular gate call boxes
- landline to cellular conversion
- telephone entry repair
- resident directory updates
- call box speaker replacement
- entry system surge protection
Safety Sensors & UL 325 Compliance
UL 325 is the standard that keeps an automatic gate from closing on a child, a pet or a car. It is not paperwork, and in Garland the reason installations drift out of compliance is the ground rather than the wiring.
The standard requires two independent means of entrapment protection in each direction of travel, external devices monitored so the operator refuses to run when one fails, and an operator matched to the correct usage class, from Class I at a single home to Class IV at a restricted site.
- photo-eye sensor installation
- UL 325 safety compliance
- gate entrapment protection
- safety edge sensors
- loop detector installation
- gate safety inspection
- warning signage and placards
- gate operator classification
- photo eye alignment and repair
- reversing loop installation
- gate safety device testing
Gate Motors & Solar Power
Solar gate operators are genuinely useful equipment, and in Garland they are usually the second-best answer. Before we quote a panel and a battery bank, we would rather price the trench, because on most lots here the trench is short, easy and cheaper over the life of the gate. The reason is the dirt.
- solar gate openers
- solar panel gate kits
- off-grid gate power
- gate battery backup
- 12V and 24V gate motors
- solar charge controllers
- gate motor replacement
- battery replacement for gate operators
- ranch gate solar power
- deep-cycle gate batteries
- DC gate operator installation
Custom & Estate Gates
An estate entry is a piece of architecture that happens to move. Custom scrollwork, monogram panels, arched top rails and masonry columns are the visible part. What determines whether it looks right in ten years is the relationship between a heavy gate and ground that will not stay put.
- custom estate gates
- ranch entry gates
- luxury driveway gates
- hand-forged entrance gates
- brand and monogram gates
- matching pedestrian entry gates
- stone column and gate packages
- oversized ranch entrances
- custom gate design
- underground gate operators
- gate column conduit sleeving
Security Fencing & Perimeter
A gate is only as good as what stands beside it. Ornamental steel and aluminum fencing, welded panel, and heavier commercial-grade systems all get built and installed by the same shop that builds your gate, so the picket spacing, rail height and finish actually match instead of nearly matching. Fence posts have a problem in Garland that gate posts do not.
- security fencing installation
- wrought iron fencing
- ornamental steel fence panels
- aluminum fencing
- perimeter security fencing
- matching fence and gate packages
- anti-climb fencing
- pipe and cable ranch fencing
- commercial perimeter fencing
- terminal and corner post setting
- fence panel replacement
Commercial & Industrial Gates
Commercial gates are graded on uptime, not appearance. A stuck gate at a distribution yard off I-30 stops trucks in the street. Everything we specify for a commercial site is chosen against that consequence, starting with how many cycles a day the entrance will actually see.
- commercial gate installation
- industrial gate systems
- gated community gates
- HOA and apartment gates
- warehouse and yard gates
- self-storage facility gates
- Class III and Class IV operators
- commercial gate maintenance contracts
- high-security gates
- loop detectors and free-exit systems
- HOA gate maintenance
Welding & Gate Fabrication
We run our own metal shop, so much of our work is repair, not replacement. When a gate here goes wrong the metal is usually fine and the geometry is not, and geometry is fixed with a jack, a level and a welder rather than a purchase order. The most common job on the truck is a leaning hinge post.
- custom gate fabrication
- on-site mobile welding
- structural gate repair
- gate frame re-welding
- metal fabrication shop
- post and hinge welding
- gate bracket and hardware fabrication
- railing and gate welding
- cracked weld repair
- custom hinge plate fabrication
- gate latch and drop rod fabrication
Emergency Gate Service
A gate that will not open traps you at home. A gate that will not close leaves your property open all night. Neither is a next-week problem, so we run emergency service across Garland and triage on the phone first, because some of this you can fix yourself.
- emergency gate service
- gate stuck open or closed
- same-day gate service
- after-hours gate repair
- gate operator down
- manual gate release
- power outage gate access
- storm damage gate repair

What Garland property owners ask us
Which gate services does Garland Gate Pros handle?
Everything listed on this page, residential and commercial, across Garland and the Dallas metroplex. Work is done by our own crews rather than handed to whoever is cheapest that week, which is the only way the workmanship warranty means anything.
Can I combine more than one service in a single job?
Yes, and it is usually cheaper. Bundling gate work into one mobilization saves setup, disposal and travel, and it means one crew, one schedule and one written free estimate instead of three contractors blaming each other.
Do you give free estimates for every service?
Every one. We come out, measure, look at the real condition of the work area, and put an itemized free estimate in writing with materials and scope spelled out. No charge, no deposit, and no obligation to book.
What Garland Customers Say
Built us a dual swing iron gate off the lake road and drilled the footings much deeper than the other bid did. Two seasons of clay movement and it still meets in the middle perfectly.
A storm took out our control board and the gate was stuck open. They came the same afternoon, replaced the board, added surge protection, and reprogrammed all four remotes.
Solar opener on a long driveway with no power run. They sized the panel to how much we actually use the gate instead of guessing. It has not blinked, even in January.
Our HOA call box could not complete calls after the phone line was cut over. They converted it to cellular, rebuilt the directory, and trained our board on the software.
Cantilever gate on our yard was dragging and eating rollers. They shimmed the posts, replaced the roller assemblies, and re-aligned the operator. Trucks go through it all day now.
Cedar slat gate on a steel frame with a hidden underground operator. It looks like a magazine photo and it has not sagged an inch. The crew left the site cleaner than they found it.
