AfterGate Repair Services in Aledo, TX
When a driveway gate stops closing in Aledo, it rarely waits for a convenient time. It fails on a Monday morning before work, or on a Sunday evening with rain rolling in from Parker County. Our crews know the roads here: the long stretches of FM 1187, the caliche driveways off Old Annetta Road, the subdivisions branching from Kelly Road where half-acre lots and custom gates are standard. We answer the phone at (817) 562-7979 and we get someone out fast. Most Aledo gate repairs are diagnosed and completed in a single visit, with the price settled before we turn a wrench.

Why Aledo Homeowners Choose Ironworks Gate Co.
We’re gate specialists, not general handymen. That distinction matters in Aledo, where a driveway gate is usually a welded steel structure tied into a keypad, a safety sensor set, and an electric operator. Fixing it properly requires someone who understands all three systems, and understands how they interact with Parker County’s expansive clay soil. Homeowners in Morningstar and the acreage communities along Old Weatherford Road call us because we show up with the right parts, the right training, and a written guarantee behind the work. Every job we complete is covered by our 90-Day Done Right Promise: if something isn’t right, we come back and fix it. No paperwork, no arguing, no exceptions. Our technicians are background-checked, uniformed, and trained on nine major gate-automation brands, so the repair is correct on the first visit, whatever is mounted on the gate post.
Gate Repair Services We Offer in Aledo
Gate Repair
A sagging gate, a bent hinge, a post that’s canted out of plumb after a wet spring: these are the calls we handle most often in Aledo. We repair ornamental iron and steel gates, replace welded sections, and reset posts that Parker County’s shifting clay has pushed out of alignment.

Gate Installation
New construction, a replacement gate, or an upgrade from a manual to an automated system: we build and install gates sized correctly for the opening and the operator. For Aledo’s larger custom homes, we install gates that match the scale of the property rather than looking like an afterthought.

Gate Motor & Opener
Operators fail for plenty of reasons, and in Parker County, heat is near the top of the list. A control board that bakes for thirty straight days above 100 degrees eventually gives out. We diagnose the problem, replace what’s failed, and program the controller so the gate opens and closes with the right force and the right safety response.

Gate Access Control
Keypads, intercoms, vehicle sensors, and the wiring that connects them: we service and install access control on Aledo gates so residents get in reliably and everyone else stays out. Newer Aledo homes often have integrated systems that need calibration as the gate and post shift.
Gate Parts & Welding
Sometimes the fix is simpler than it looks: a hinge, a roller, a bracket, or a section of rail. Our shop handles gate welding and custom parts fabrication, so we can match metal and thickness to the existing gate instead of bolting on something that only fits poorly.
Neighborhoods We Serve in Aledo
We work across Aledo and the surrounding rural-residential areas, typically arriving within a few hours for repair calls and scheduling installation work at a time that suits you. Homeowners throughout the area rely on us for gate repair that holds up to clay soil and hard summers.

Why Aledo’s Climate & Housing Affect Gate Repair
Aledo sits on Parker County’s expansive black clay, and that fact shapes nearly every gate we repair. These soils swell when wet and shrink when baked. A gate post set in March, after winter moisture, can be canted two or three inches out of plumb by Labor Day. A gate that closed flush in the spring ends up dragging its bottom rail on the caliche driveway in August. In flat urban suburbs, post movement like that is a rare occurrence. In Aledo, it’s a near-routine service item. We quote post-reset and re-leveling as a standard repair line, because the homes here, many built between the 2000s and 2020s on half-acre to multi-acre lots, have automated entry gates that move every day. The repeated freeze-thaw cycle of a hard North Texas ice storm, like the one in February 2021, bends swing arms and shears operator brackets when a gate freezes mid-cycle and the motor keeps driving. Aledo’s housing stock is newer, so many systems are electric operators and keypads that are aging into their first round of real service. We know what that means, and we plan for it.

FAQs About Gate Repair in Aledo
Most Aledo gate repairs fall between $140 and $650, depending on the part and the work involved. Common repairs like post-resetting, hinge replacement, and operator board swaps are quoted before work begins. Call (817) 562-7979 and we’ll give you a firm number, not a range with fine print.
Yes, same-day scheduling is available for most Aledo repair calls. We answer the phone 24 hours a day, and a live person takes your call. If the gate is stuck open or won’t open, we treat it as urgent and prioritize dispatch accordingly.
In nearly every case we see, it’s the expansive black clay. Wet winters swell the soil and push posts upward and outward; dry summers shrink it and leave posts tilted. The gate then rubs the ground or the latch misses the catch. We reset and re-level the post, then re-hang the gate so it swings true.
We service and repair operators from LiftMaster, FAAC, BFT, Linear, Viking, Ghost Controls, DoorKing, Elite, and Mighty Mule. Whatever brand is in your driveway, we’re trained on it. If a board or arm has failed, we usually have the part on the truck or can get it same-day.
It can. Ice storms bend swing arms, shear mounting bolts, and sometimes crack welds when the operator keeps driving against a frozen gate. We assess the mechanical damage, repair or replace the bent components, and test the operator’s limit settings so the system doesn’t fight itself again. If you suspect freeze damage, call (817) 562-7979 and we’ll get it checked.

What Aledo 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"Control board fried after a lightning storm. He showed me the burn mark on it, quoted the board, and put a surge protector on the line so hopefully it does not happen again."
- Layla Haddad"Used them at two properties now. Both times they diagnosed it on the first visit instead of guessing and coming back."
