Posts, footings, and Texas clay
Gate posts carry the whole weight and every gust of wind. We dig deep, set steel in concrete, and let it cure before hanging anything. Skipping the cure is why so many gates in DFW sag inside a year.

Gate Installation
Manual or automatic, wood or iron, built to hang straight for years.
We install every kind of gate a property needs: the 4-foot side gate the dog keeps testing, the double-drive entry off the street, the ranch gate on acreage out past Denton. Same standard on all of them — steel posts, concrete footings, welded or through-bolted frames, stainless or coated fasteners.
If you already have a design in mind, bring it. If you don't, we'll show you what's working around the metroplex and what holds up after five summers.
Hardware that outlives the warranty
Adjustable ball-bearing hinges, drop rods, and latches rated above the gate weight. Cheap hinges are the number one reason a good gate stops closing.
Pool and code compliance
Pool gates have to self-close, self-latch, and swing out with the latch at the right height. We build to code and save you the inspection headache.
Straight answers
- How wide should a driveway gate be?
- Twelve feet works for most single drives; sixteen is the comfortable standard for double drives and trucks with trailers.
- Wood or iron?
- Cedar over a steel frame gives you privacy and warmth. Iron gives you visibility and near-zero maintenance. Plenty of folks in DFW split the difference.
- Do you pull permits?
- Where a city requires one for gate or fence work, we handle it and build to the local code.
