Why Kennedale Homeowners Choose Ironworks Gate Co.
We’re a gate shop, full stop. No general handyman work, no “we also do patios.” Ironworks Gate Co. was founded in 1984 by Victor Salinas, and the company’s entire focus has stayed on driveway gates for over 42 years. That matters when a Viking opener from 2009 or a Ghost Controls board from a more recent install needs correct diagnosis. Technicians in Kennedale carry parts and training for nine automation brands, so most jobs finish in one trip.
Homeowners in Kennedale East and around Meadow Park call us because a neighbor had us fix a sagging gate years ago and it hasn’t sagged since. That kind of word travels on a street of 60-year-old brick homes. Every crew member is background-checked and uniformed, and every job carries the written 90-Day Done Right Promise. If something isn’t right, Victor sends a tech back. No argument, no fine print.
Gate Repair Services We Offer in Kennedale
Gate Repair
A heavy steel or iron gate slowly wears its hinges, its track, and its patience. We repair sagging leaves, snapped chains, bent frames, rusted posts, and misaligned operators. Learn more about our Gate Repair in Kennedale.

Gate Installation
New driveway gates are measured, built, and set to match the weight of the leaf and the slope of the entrance. We handle both swing and slide configurations, with operator pairing done at the same time. Learn more about our Gate Installation in Kennedale.

Gate Motor & Opener
We service and install openers from LiftMaster, Viking, Ghost Controls, DoorKing, Elite, and more. A dead board or failed capacitor gets a straight diagnosis and a quoted fix before any work begins. Learn more about our Gate Motor & Opener in Kennedale.

Gate Access Control
Keypads, intercoms, vehicle sensors, and remote programming for homes that need entry without leaving the car. Access control work is quoted, scheduled, and tested thoroughly before we hand back the remote.

Gate Parts & Welding
We manufacture and weld replacement parts on-site when a hinge, bracket, or frame section fails. Cast-iron finials, custom pickets, and full-frame reconstruction are all welded right here, not shipped out to a sub.

Why Kennedale’s Climate & Housing Affect Gate Repair
Kennedale sits on the western edge of Arlington with a soil type that shifts. Expansive clay expands after heavy spring rains, then contracts during the dry late-summer stretch, and that movement puts real stress on gate posts and operators bolted to them. We regularly see Kennedale gates that worked fine in April binding up by August when the soil pulls back and the post tilts two degrees. That two degrees is enough to throw a slide gate off its rail or make a swing gate jam its limit switch. Homes on larger lots near the city’s eastern edge often have older, heavier iron gates that predate modern operator systems, and those require careful reinforcement when a new motor is added. We inspect the post, the welds, and the operator as one system, not three separate problems.

We do. Every installation includes the full electrical run, safety edges, and operator setup, and it’s quoted as one written figure before the work begins.
We weld on-site. If a frame section or hinge mount is too far gone, we fabricate and weld a replacement piece rather than ordering parts that might not match your gate. This is standard work for us in Kennedale’s older subdivisions.

What Kennedale Customers Say
"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."
- Rohan Shah"The repair is holding. He was quite a bit later than the window I was given and the office did not call me about it, I had to call them. The work itself was done well once he arrived."
- Ruben Morales
