I am Hal Gatewood, and I have been fixing gates in this area since 2001. When you call us, you aren’t talking to a national dispatch center or a chatbot; you are talking to a live person who understands that a gate sagging in the Hinge & Post Repair situation is a different problem than a motor failure or a sensor issue. We show up, we diagnose the real problem, and we fix it right the first time. We serve the entire North Richland Hills area, including nearby communities in Tarrant County, with the same commitment to quality that we have held for over 29 years.
How Much Does Gate Repair Cost in North Richland Hills?
Gate repair costs in North Richland Hills typically range from $150 for minor adjustments or sensor cleaning to $450 or more for complex motor repairs or structural welding. Because we are locally owned and owner-operated, we provide transparent, upfront pricing before we turn a single wrench. You will never be surprised by hidden fees or inflated parts costs when we arrive at your door.
We believe in honest, straightforward business. If a part can be fixed, we fix it. We don’t try to sell you a new motor when a simple relay replacement will do, and we don’t haul your gate off to a shop if we can Weld & Rust Repair it right there in your driveway. To make our service even more accessible, we offer a permanent 10% discount for seniors and veterans, and we take $40 off any repair bill that exceeds $200.

Fast, Local Gate Repair
A gate that won’t open or close is a problem that needs attention immediately. We don’t operate on a “wait and see” schedule. Because we are based right here in the area, we know the specific geography and the common issues that plague gates in North Richland Hills, from the humidity-induced rust on older iron gates to the electrical quirks caused by recent storms. We stock parts for nine major brands, including LiftMaster, FAAC, BFT, Linear, Viking, Ghost Controls, DoorKing, Elite, and Mighty Mule, which means we are usually ready to fix your system, including any Lock Repair needs, on the first trip.
We answer the phone 24/7. When you call us, you get a real person who can help you troubleshoot the issue or dispatch someone to your home. We know that if your gate is stuck open, your pets or your security are at risk, so we treat every call with urgency. Our technicians are background-checked and uniformed, and they carry the same tools and expertise that I use myself. We don’t send out trainees; we send out people who know how to solve problems.
Areas We Cover
We have been serving the Metroplex since 2001, and our trucks are constantly moving throughout the region. While we specialize in Gate Repair in North Richland Hills, we also provide the same reliable service to our neighbors in the surrounding cities. If you are in Fort Worth, Southlake, Colleyville, Irving, Hurst, Bedford, or Keller, we are just a short drive away. Being locally owned means we don’t charge trip fees for our neighbors within the county, keeping your costs down while ensuring you get the best local home service.
Safety Warning: High-Tension Components
If your gate is struggling, making loud grinding noises, or the chain looks frayed, please stay clear. Many gate systems operate under extreme tension, particularly those with heavy-duty springs or high-voltage motors. Attempting to adjust these components without the proper training and tools can result in serious injury. If your gate has a mechanical failure, please call (817) 241-4067 and let a trained professional handle the repair safely.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can you come out to repair my gate today?
Yes, we prioritize urgent repairs and often offer same-day service for residents in North Richland Hills and the surrounding communities. Because we are locally based and owner-operated, we don’t have to wait for dispatch approval from a corporate office; we just load the truck and get to work.
Do you charge a trip fee for homes in the area?
We do not charge a trip fee for any service calls within the county. We believe your money should go toward the repair itself, not toward the gas it takes to get to your front door. If you are outside our immediate county service area, give us a call at (817) 241-4067, and we will be upfront about any travel costs before we head out.
Is it cheaper to repair or replace my gate motor?
In most cases, a quality motor can be repaired for significantly less than the cost of a full replacement. We follow a repair-first philosophy. We will thoroughly diagnose the motor, the circuit board, and the sensors before ever suggesting a replacement. If we find that a replacement is truly the most cost-effective long-term choice, we will show you exactly why, and we will provide an honest, upfront price for the new unit.
What does your “90-Day Done Right Promise” cover?
Our 90-Day Done Right Promise is our way of standing behind our labor and parts. If we repair your gate and you experience the same issue within 90 days, we will come back and make it right. This isn’t hidden in fine print; it is stamped on every invoice we issue. We are here to stay, and we want you to be a customer for life, not just for one repair.
How We Approach Your Gate Repair
When you call us, we follow a simple, proven process to ensure your gate is functioning safely and reliably. We don’t believe in cutting corners, and we don’t believe in “patch jobs” that fail after a month.
- Initial Assessment: We listen to the symptoms you describe over the phone to arrive prepared with the right parts for your specific brand and model.
- On-Site Diagnosis: Once we arrive, we inspect the entire system, not just the part that stopped working. We check the hinges, the track, the motor, and the safety sensors.
- Upfront Pricing: We explain what is wrong and exactly what it will cost to fix it before we do anything. You get to decide how to proceed.
- The Repair: We perform the work on-site. If it requires welding, we have the equipment to do it right in your driveway, saving you the time and expense of hauling the gate away.
- Testing and Verification: We cycle the gate multiple times to ensure it closes smoothly, stops where it should, and responds to your remote or keypad every single time.
The name is on the shop, and the shop is down the road. That is the oldest accountability there is. If you need a gate repair or just need a second opinion on an estimate you already have, reach out. We are ready to help you get your property secure again.

What Our Customers Say
"Fitted a keypad and an intercom so my mother can let carers in without coming down the drive. He set it up and then made her practise with it until she was comfortable."
- Lucinda Marchbanks"Welded the hinge back onto our wrought iron gate on site rather than taking it away for a fortnight. Ground it back and painted it and you cannot see the repair."
- Winston Achterberg"The fence is excellent and it was fairly priced. He is not quick to answer email, so if you need him, ring. He always picks up the phone."
- Rodney Falkenrath
