AfterGate Repair Services in Grapevine, TX
When your gate won’t close, you notice it immediately. It’s not something you can ignore until the weekend. Grapevine homeowners call us because their automatic gate is stuck open on a 100-degree afternoon, or their ornamental iron gate off Fairway Drive has rusted through at the hinge pins, or their HOA entry gate on the south side of town has stopped reading remotes. We answer the phone at (806) 484-1837, and we know the difference between a 1980s brick-veneer subdivision gate in 76051 and the period ironwork near Historic Main Street. You don’t get a call center. You get a gate company.
Most gate repairs in Grapevine are completed the same day we arrive or within a single visit. That’s not a promise we make lightly. It comes from carrying common parts on the truck and knowing which motor brands are on which streets. Victor Salinas built this company on a straightforward idea: fix it correctly the first time, and stand behind the work in writing.

Why Grapevine Homeowners Choose Ironworks Gate Co.
We’ve been at this work for over 42 years, and we plan to be in Grapevine for another forty. The homeowners we serve tend to have lived in their homes for decades. They’ve been burned by contractors who didn’t show up or didn’t finish. They don’t shop for the cheapest gate repair. They want it done once, done right, and guaranteed. That’s how we work.
We serve the neighborhoods around Parr Park and the streets north of Grapevine Mills without pricing jobs differently because of the address. Our technicians are background-checked and uniformed. They work in your driveway the way they’d work at their own mother’s house. Every completed job is protected by our written 90-Day Done Right Promise. If it isn’t right, we come back and make it right. No paperwork, no arguing.
Our service covers nine gate-automation brands: LiftMaster, FAAC, BFT, Linear, Viking, Ghost Controls, DoorKing, Elite, and Mighty Mule. If you call about a Viking opener that’s humming but not moving, or a DoorKing keypad that won’t hold a code, we already know the fix before we pull into your driveway.

Learn more about our Gate Repair in Grapevine.

Learn more about our Gate Installation in Grapevine.
Gate Motor & Opener
When the motor runs but the gate doesn’t move, or the gate moves halfway and reverses, the opener needs attention. We service swing, slide, and cantilever operators. We carry common boards, arms, and limits on the truck to fix most openers in one trip.
Learn more about our Gate Motor & Opener service in Grapevine.
Gate Access Control
Keypads, remotes, intercoms, loop detectors, and telephone-entry systems for residential and HOA gates. If your remote stopped working on a Ghost Controls system, or your Linear receiver only opens from ten feet away, we diagnose and repair the control side, not just the mechanical side.
We also repair, program, and install Gate Access Control in Grapevine.
Gate Parts & Welding
Broken rollers, missing pickets, rusted frame rails, snapped chain. We weld in place when it makes sense and offer Grapevine Gate Parts & Welding when something’s no longer made. This includes period-appropriate repair for the ornamental iron gates along the older streets near Historic Main Street in Grapevine.

Why Grapevine’s Climate & Housing Affect Gate Repair
Grapevine sits on Blackland Prairie clay. Anyone who’s lived here through a wet spring and a 105-degree August knows what that clay does: it swells, it shrinks, and it moves. Gate posts heave. Columns shift. A gate that closed perfectly in March binds against the latch post by July. We see it most in the 1980s and 1990s brick-veneer subdivisions where the gates were installed with posts set into that expansive soil. The repair isn’t just adjusting the hinges. It often means resetting the post and recalibrating the operator limits so the motor doesn’t burn itself out fighting the misalignment.
Then there’s the lake effect. Grapevine Lake puts consistent moisture into the air along the south-shore coves and the neighborhoods off Fairway Drive. Ornamental iron gates there rust at hinge points within five to seven years. The same gate style in a drier inland neighborhood in the same ZIP will last twice as long. We know this because we’ve replaced hinges on both. That local knowledge changes the repair recommendation. Sometimes a new hinge is the right fix. Sometimes the smarter move is marine-grade stainless hardware so we’re not back in three years.

Usually, yes. If you call before mid-afternoon and your gate is stuck open, stuck closed, or won’t respond to a remote, we can typically have a technician to your Grapevine home the same day. For emergency gate failures, call us anytime. A live person answers 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
They do. The expansive clay under Grapevine swells in wet seasons and contracts in summer heat, which shifts posts and columns. That movement causes gates to sag, bind, or trip their safety sensors. It’s one of the most common repair calls we get in the 76051 area.
A full installation includes measuring the opening, specifying the gate and operator, removing the old gate, setting and plumbing new posts, hanging the new gate, installing and programming the opener, testing safety edges and sensors, and walking you through operation. We quote the complete job in writing before any work starts.
Yes. We run the low-voltage and line-voltage as needed, install and align safety photo eyes, set loop detectors, and wire keypads or intercoms. The operator gets tested for force limits and obstruction reversal before we leave. Call (806) 484-1837 to schedule a free estimate.
Your gate is the first thing you open in the morning and the last thing you close at night. When it isn’t working, it’s not a project on your list. It’s a problem in your day. We fix it. We quote it before we start. And we guarantee it in writing. Call Ironworks Gate Co. at (806) 484-1837 for a free estimate on gate repair in Grapevine, TX.

What Grapevine Customers Say
"Gate stopped halfway and sat there for two days blocking the driveway. He found a dead capacitor in the operator, had one on the truck, and we were moving cars again inside an hour."
- Chris Gallagher"The gate works properly now and the price was fair. It did take two visits, because the operator we have is old and the part had to be ordered. They did not charge for the second trip."
- Carrie Mercer"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."
