AfterGate Repair Services in Keller, TX
A gate that won’t open, drags on the driveway, or groans like it’s in pain is more than an annoyance in Keller. It’s a security gap on a large-lot home in 76244 or 76248, and it usually fails at the worst possible moment: leaving for work, heading to the airport, or right before a storm rolls in. Our technicians serve Keller homeowners every day, and we answer the phone at (817) 580-8494 around the clock. When a gate operator quits, a hinge snaps, or a post has leaned out of plumb, we send a uniformed, background-checked technician who knows this city’s specific gate problems cold.
Done right, and backed in writing. That’s the entire deal at Ironworks Gate Co. Every repair, every install, every operator swap carries a written 90-Day Done Right Promise. If it isn’t right, we come back and make it right. No paperwork, no phone tag, no arguing. Call us, tell us what’s happening, and we’ll give you a straight answer about what it will take to fix it.

Why Keller Homeowners Choose Ironworks Gate Co.
Keller is a place where people stay. Homes in neighborhoods like Hidden Lakes and Marshall Ridge were built well and meant to last, and the ornamental iron gates that came with them were built well too. But nothing mechanical runs forever without attention. When it’s time to repair or replace, homeowners here want a company that treats the work with the same care that went into the original build.
That’s what we do at home. Victor Salinas leads a team that has spent more than four decades earning the trust of homeowners across the Dallas-Fort Worth metro. Our technicians work on nine gate-automation brands including LiftMaster, FAAC, and Elite, so the correct diagnosis happens on the first visit, not the third. Most repairs are completed in a single trip. And the price is settled before a single bolt is turned: a square deal, upfront, with no surprises on the bill. Keller homeowners have told us they remember the last contractor who let them down. We’re here to be the last gate call they ever make.
When you call, a live person answers. Not a voicemail tree, not an answering service, not a callback queue. Twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week. That matters at 6:45 on a Tuesday morning when your gate won’t budge and you need to get to work.
Gate Repair Services We Offer in Keller
We are a dedicated gate company. We don’t mow lawns, clean gutters, or patch drywall. Gate systems, gate operators, gate access control, and gate welding are all we do. That focus means the technician in your driveway has seen your exact problem many times before, in Keller specifically, and already knows the most likely cause.
Gate Repair
Broken hinge, sagging leaf, snapped weld, or a gate that drags across the driveway in Hidden Lakes. We repair the steel and the geometry, not just the symptom. Learn more about gate repair in Keller.
Gate Installation
New custom iron gate, teardown of an old one, or a full post-and-gate replacement after storm damage. We measure, order, and install with the same unhurried care on every job. Learn more about gate installation in Keller.
Gate Motor & Opener
If your gate opens partway, reverses on its own, or does nothing at all, the operator is usually the culprit. We service and replace LiftMaster, FAAC, BFT, Linear, Viking, Ghost Controls, DoorKing, Elite, and Mighty Mule systems. Learn more about gate motors and openers in Keller.
Gate Access Control
Keypads, intercoms, phone-entry systems, and vehicle sensors for driveway gates. We install and repair the full access-control chain from the keypad at the post to the receiver at the opener.
Gate Parts & Welding
Broken picket, rusted hinge bracket, cracked receiver mount, or a bent track on a slide gate. Our welders repair and reinforce the steel so the gate hangs true again.

Why Keller’s Climate & Housing Affect Gate Repair
Keller sits on Tarrant County’s expansive black clay soil. In a dry North Texas summer, that clay shrinks and cracks. After heavy rain, it swells with force. The result for automatic gates is predictable and specific to this area: gate posts heave, lean, and drift out of plumb on a seasonal cycle. A homeowner calls because the gate “won’t open,” and what we often find is that the motor is fine but the gate leaf has shifted enough to bind against the post or lose contact with the opener. The fix means realigning the gate and sometimes resetting the footer, not just tightening a bolt and hoping.
Add Keller’s housing stock to that picture and the pattern gets clearer. The city’s large custom and semi-custom homes, most built between the late 1990s and the 2010s, came with ornamental iron driveway gates as a standard feature. Those gates are now hitting their 15- to 25-year mark. Many still run the original Linear or Apollo actuator that was installed when the house was new. The clay soil has been quietly moving posts for two decades while the original motor finally gave out. That’s why a simple “gate won’t open” call in Keller so often becomes an operator replacement plus post realignment. It’s not a quote pad; it’s just what the ground and the calendar have done to the gate.

FAQs About Gate Repair in Keller
Gate repair in Keller typically costs $180 to $340 for hinge replacement or realignment, and $350 to $850 for operator or circuit board replacement. Post resets run $450 to $900. The final number depends on the gate’s condition and the operator brand. We quote the price before any work starts, and estimates are free.
In most cases, yes. We staff live phone coverage 24/7 and schedule repair calls throughout Keller daily. If your gate is stuck open or blocking your driveway, call (817) 580-8494 and we’ll tell you realistically when a technician can arrive.
We’re familiar with Keller’s deed-restricted communities and the architectural review process many HOAs require before gate work is approved. We can provide documentation of the proposed repair or replacement, including materials and gate style details, to help you get the approval moving. This is routine for us in Keller’s planned neighborhoods.
The clay soil under Keller moves with every wet-dry cycle. Posts heave and settle, and over years the gate drifts out of level. When a gate leans or drags, the operator works harder and fails sooner. The permanent fix is resetting the post and aligning the gate, not just adjusting the motor.

What Keller Customers Say
"The loop detector under the driveway had failed and residents were stuck holding the button. He traced it, found the break, and had the exit loop reading cars again the same visit."
- Eric Padgett"The hinge post had rotted at the base and the whole swing gate was sagging into the concrete. He rebuilt the post rather than talking us into a new gate, which two other companies had pushed for."
- Megan Whitaker"Used them at two properties now. Both times they diagnosed it on the first visit instead of guessing and coming back."
- Rohan Shah
