AfterGate Repair in Irving, TX
Gate access control in Irving usually means working on hardware installed when Las Colinas was built out, and much of that equipment is now 25 to 45 years old. We replace failing telephone-entry keypads, retrofit card readers onto 1990s slide-gate operators, and weld cracked hinge brackets on gates that have shifted with the black clay soil. Call (817) 826-9477 and a live person answers, any hour, with a written price before any work starts.
Why Irving Homes Are Different
Irving sits on North Texas black gumbo clay that swells when wet and cracks when dry. Gate posts heave, concrete footings settle, and a gate that cleared the latch in March can drag by June. We reset posts, shim hinges, and re-square frames more often here than in cities built on stable ground. Summer heat over 100°F bakes opener circuit boards and motor capacitors, and ice storms snap swing-gate arms or wedge debris into slide tracks overnight.
Las Colinas is the other variable. Its gated townhome enclaves and mid-rise condos run on commercial-grade slide-gate operators and access-control systems, most of them original to construction in the 1980s and 1990s. HOA boards and property managers make the repair decisions, and they usually want a written scope, a written price, and documentation before they approve anything. We hand over all three on every visit, including a photo record of what was found and what was replaced.
Our Main Irving Services
Most Irving calls fall into three groups: a gate that won’t open, a gate that needs to be replaced, and a motor that quit. Here’s what each looks like in Irving.
Gate Repair in Irving
Weld cracks, broken hinges, sagging frames, stuck rollers. In Irving, repair calls skew toward slide gates on HOA properties and swing gates on older single-family lots near the original city core. We document the failure in writing and photograph every adjustment. Read the full scope on our Gate Repair in Irving page.
Gate Installation in Irving
New gates in Irving usually mean either a replacement on an HOA-governed property or a custom swing gate on a new build. We work with the board’s requirements, spec the operator, and handle the concrete work on clay soil correctly from day one. Full details are on our Gate Installation in Irving page.
Gate Motor & Opener in Irving
In Irving, motors fail from heat, age, or both. When a 1990s slide-gate operator dies, we present a repair price and a replacement price in writing and let the board decide with real numbers. No pressure toward replacement. See Gate Motor & Opener in Irving for the breakdown.

BeforeAfterGate Access Control in Irving
Gate access control in Irving means retrofitting modern entry hardware onto aging Las Colinas infrastructure. The original early-1990s telephone-entry keypads, loop detectors, and slide-gate operators in those communities are now failing in clusters, and HOA boards need documented repair options, not vague assurances. We service the existing system first, source discontinued parts where we can, and quote full upgrades only when the board asks for them. Our Gate Access Control work follows the same written-price rule as every other job.
Keypad Entry
Signs you need it
A keypad that takes multiple presses per digit, works only at night, or stops recognizing codes entirely is failing from moisture or age.
What it costs in Irving
Keypad replacement in Irving typically runs $240-$580 depending on whether it’s a standalone unit or tied into a multi-unit entry system.
How we do it
We test the wiring, install the new keypad, program resident codes, and photograph the final programming screen for the record.
Card Reader
Signs you need it
Residents tapping a card that fails intermittently, or a reader that works for some cards and not others, usually points to a failing reader or a worn card database.
What it costs in Irving
Card reader replacement in Irving typically runs $320-$750, with more for multi-reader systems on large Las Colinas communities.
How we do it
We replace the reader, re-enroll cards through the existing controller, and test every access point before we leave.
What Gate Access Control Costs in Irving
| Item | Typical range in Irving |
|---|---|
| Keypad replacement | $240-$580 |
| Card reader replacement | $320-$750 |
| Phone entry system retrofit | $600-$1,500 |
Can you fix an old 1990s telephone-entry system in Irving?
Yes, in most cases. We source discontinued DoorKing and Linear parts before recommending replacement, and the written price covers either path before work begins.
Do you work directly with HOA boards in Las Colinas?
We do. We provide a written scope, a written price, and a photo record on every visit, which is exactly what most Las Colinas boards need for approval.
Gate Parts & Welding in Irving
Gate parts and welding in Irving starts with the clay soil. Posts shift, hinges tear, slide-gate rails pull out of alignment, and the result is a gate that binds, scrapes, or won’t latch. We replace the failed part and weld or reinforce the frame where the stress concentrated, and we photograph every weld before cleaning up. Our Gate Parts & Welding service covers everything from a single hinge to a full post reset.
Hinge Replacement
Signs you need it
A gate that sags toward the latch side, scrapes the ground at the free end, or shows visible gap changes at the hinge barrel when you lift it needs hinge work.
What it costs in Irving
Hinge replacement in Irving typically runs $180-$420, depending on gate weight and whether the post face needs reinforcement plate work.
How we do it
We remove the old hinges, grind the post clean, weld or bolt new hinges into position, and photograph the final alignment.
Post Replacement
Signs you need it
A post that leans visibly, shows cracks at the concrete collar, or lets the gate drop even with new hinges needs replacement or re-setting.
What it costs in Irving
Post replacement in Irving typically runs $400-$950 per post, including concrete work sized for black clay soil movement.
How we do it
We break out the old footing, set a new post deeper than the original, and brace it square while the concrete cures.
What Gate Parts & Welding Costs in Irving
| Item | Typical range in Irving |
|---|---|
| Hinge replacement | $180-$420 |
| Post replacement | $400-$950 per post |
| Rail repair (slide gates) | $250-$600 |
Can you weld a crack without replacing the whole gate frame?
Yes. We grind the crack, weld it, and add a gusset plate where the stress concentrated, which is usually stronger than the original joint. Call (817) 826-9477 for a written price before we touch it.
Why did my gate post lean after the last rain?
Black clay soil in Irving expands when wet and shifts the footing. We set posts deeper and use a wider concrete collar to resist seasonal movement. Call (817) 826-9477 for an exact scope.
