AfterGate Repair Services in Irving, TX
When a gate stops closing in Irving, it’s rarely a small problem. The clay soil under Las Colinas has been shifting posts for decades, and the 1980s-era swing operators that came with many of those homes are now well past their intended lifespan. If you’re standing in your driveway off MacArthur Boulevard with a gate stuck halfway open, call (806) 484-1837. A live person answers, day or night, and we’ll send a background-checked technician who works on gates every single day, not someone who does gates as a side job between other repairs.
Gate repair in Irving runs from a simple hinge replacement to a full operator swap, and the honest answer is that most jobs we see fall somewhere in the middle. The good news is we complete the large majority of repairs in one visit, with an upfront price you approve before we turn the first bolt.

Why Irving Homeowners Choose Ironworks Gate Co.
Irving is not a one-style gate town. Drive through Valley Ranch and you’ll see ornamental steel slide gates at community entrances. Head into the older neighborhoods south of Highway 183 and you’ll find ranch homes where gates were added piecemeal over the years. We’ve worked in both, and everywhere in between, and that matters when a homeowner calls with a problem that a generalist can’t diagnose.
Homeowners in University Hills and the Hospital District area call us because we show up when we say we will, and we carry parts for the specific brands that dominate Las Colinas. No callback roulette. No “we’ll get back to you.” Victor Salinas built this company on a simple idea: answer the phone, do the work right, and stand behind it in writing. That’s why our 90-Day Done Right Promise isn’t a marketing line. It’s the Keystone Standard we apply to every job, and it’s been that way since 1984.
Gate Repair Services We Offer in Irving
Gate Repair
A sagging gate, a bent hinge, a wheel that’s ground itself flat against the track. These are the calls we get most often in Irving, and they’re usually fixable in one visit. We replace what’s worn, weld what’s cracked, and adjust what’s drifted – then we test the full sweep of the gate so you’re not calling back in a month.

Gate Installation
Many central Irving homes built in the 1950s and 1960s never had a gate at all. Homeowners now adding one get a gate sized to their driveway, posts set for the clay soil, and an operator matched to how often the gate cycles. We measure, we quote, and we build it to last decades, not seasons.

Gate Motor & Opener
If your opener groans, stalls, or refuses to budge after a freeze, the motor or control board may be done. We’re factory-trained on nine major brands, including Liftmaster in Irving, BFT, and FAAC units that still run at many Las Colinas addresses. The right diagnosis on the first visit saves you money, and we have the parts on the truck to prove it.

Gate Access Control
Keypads, intercoms, telephone entry, card readers, and the wiring that connects them. We handle Gate Access Control - Irving for single-family driveways and the smaller HOA entrance gates scattered through Irving. If you’re locked out by a dead keypad, we can usually get you back in the same day.

Gate Parts & Welding
Sometimes the gate itself is fine and the problem is a cracked weld or a rusted-through hinge. We weld on site, reinforce what’s failing, and match Irving Gate Parts & Welding to the original hardware. For ornamental iron gates that came with a Las Colinas home, that means keeping the look intact while restoring the strength.

Why Irving’s Climate & Housing Affect Gate Repair
Irving sits on Blackland Prairie clay, and that clay expands and contracts with every wet-dry weather cycle we get. The result is gate posts that heave out of plumb, which throws swing gates off their hinges and slide gates off their tracks. A gate that scraped the ground in August may not latch in December, and an operator that was fine last spring starts straining because its gearbox is fighting a post that moved half an inch. We set posts with the soil in mind and align gates so they survive the movement, not just mask it.
The February 2021 winter storm is still causing gate failures in Irving. Operators that were never rated for sustained subfreezing temperatures cracked hydraulic lines and seized gearboxes. We open up units after every hard freeze event and find the same pattern, especially on older FAAC and Elite operators in Las Colinas. Those legacy systems need technicians who know the parts ecosystem, because sourcing a control board or limit switch for a 1980s European operator still stumps generalist shops. We keep those parts in stock.

FAQs About Gate Repair in Irving
For urgent repairs – a gate stuck open or a failed opener blocking your car – we often dispatch the same day. Non-emergency work is typically scheduled within 24 hours. Call (806) 484-1837 and a live person will give you a straight answer on timing, not a callback promise.
Yes, and this is a common call from Las Colinas homeowners. Many 1980s and 1990s gate systems used FAAC, BFT, or Elite operators, and we keep control boards, limit switches, and other legacy parts in stock or sourced quickly. We also upgrade those systems to Ghost Controls service in Irving or other modern operators when repair no longer makes financial sense.
This is the Irving clay issue. When the soil swells after rain, posts shift and the gate drifts off line. A one-time adjustment won’t fix a post that’s moving. We correct the alignment and, where needed, reset or brace the post so the gate stays on its track through the next wet-dry cycle.
Expect $150 to $650 for most repairs, with full operator replacements running higher. The honest number depends on what’s actually wrong, which is why we quote the job after a diagnosis, and you approve the price before we start. Estimates are free, and we offer $50 off any repair over $250.
We do. That includes keypads, card readers, telephone entry, and intercoms for single-family gates and smaller HOA entrances. Many keypad failures are wiring or power issues rather than the keypad itself, and we test the full circuit so the fix holds. Call (806) 484-1837 and we’ll walk through it with you.

What Irving Customers Say
"Our slide gate had been dragging for months and getting worse. The chain was stretched and a guide roller had seized. Both replaced, and he reset the limits so it stops properly at each end now."
- Veronica Ramirez"Reprogrammed every clicker in the community and set up the keypad codes. Patient with a very long list of residents."
- Devon Ingram"Used them at two properties now. Both times they diagnosed it on the first visit instead of guessing and coming back."
- Rohan Shah
