Local Gate Repair Experts Serving Greater Houston
Houston Gate Repair is a local team of gate technicians focused on one job: keeping gates safe, secure and working. We repair, install and maintain gates for homeowners, HOAs, property managers and businesses across Harris, Fort Bend and Montgomery counties.
A gate is the first line of security for your property, and in Houston it works harder than most. Summer heat expands metal, Gulf Coast humidity rusts hinges and rots wood, and sudden storms knock out openers and sensors. Our trained, insured technicians fix every kind of gate — manual or automatic, residential or commercial, brand-new or decades old.
We arrive in stocked service vans with hinges, rollers, tracks, circuit boards, safety sensors and opener parts, so most gate repairs in Houston are diagnosed and finished in a single visit. You get a clear price before any work starts, and we test your gate through several full cycles before we leave.

Houston Gate Repair works on residential driveway gates, HOA and apartment entries, and commercial and industrial gates across the Houston metro. Every service below is available as a same-day repair, and each one starts with an honest diagnosis so you only pay for the work your gate actually needs.

Gate Repair for Wood, Steel, Iron, Aluminum and More
Each gate material fails in its own way and needs a different repair. Our technicians carry the tools and parts for all of them, so you get a fix that matches how your gate is built.
Wood Gate Repair Services in Houston, TX
Houston humidity is hard on wood. Boards swell, warp and rot, the frame pulls out of square, and the gate starts to sag and drag on the driveway. Our wood gate repair service replaces rotted pickets and rails, re-squares the frame with anti-sag cables or steel bracing, and swaps worn hinges and latches for heavy-duty hardware.
When the wood is still sound, we sand, seal and re-stain it to slow future damage. On automated wood gates, we also check that the extra weight isn’t straining the opener, a common cause of early motor failure.
Steel Gate Repair Services & Gate Welding
Steel gates are strong, but vehicle impact, rust and broken welds still take them out of service. We straighten bent frames and pickets, cut out and replace rusted sections, and re-weld cracked joints on site with mobile welding equipment.
Our steel and metal gate repair services in Houston, TX also covers rollers, hinges and tracks on heavy driveway and commercial gates. After the repair, we treat bare metal with primer and paint to stop rust from coming back.
Wrought Iron Gate Repair Services in Houston, TX
Wrought iron gates add curb appeal to Houston homes, but they are heavy and prone to rust in the Gulf Coast climate. We repair broken scrollwork and pickets, re-weld loose joints, replace worn hinges and posts, and correct sagging caused by the gate’s weight.
Our wrought iron gate repair keeps the original look of your gate while restoring smooth, secure operation. Every job finishes with a rust-inhibiting coating to protect the metal for years.
Aluminum & Vinyl Gate Repair Repair Services in Houston, TX
Aluminum gates are light and rust-resistant, which makes them popular for pools, side yards and automated driveways. Their weak points are bent frames, cracked welds and loose fasteners. We straighten or replace damaged sections, repair welds with aluminum-specific techniques, and replace latches that no longer close properly.
Vinyl gates rarely rust or rot, but they sag when hinges loosen or the internal frame is missing. We install aluminum stiffeners, replace cracked panels and hinges, and re-align the latch so the gate closes cleanly every time.
Chain Link Gate Repair Services for Homes & Businesses
Chain link gates are common on commercial lots, warehouses, schools and backyards. We fix bent frames, torn fabric, broken tension bars, worn hinges and failed latches, and repair rolling chain link gates that have come off their wheels or track.
Commercial customers can also upgrade an existing chain link gate with an automatic opener, keypad or card reader, adding security without replacing the whole gate.
Repair for Every Type of Gate in Houston
From a single garden gate to a high-traffic commercial entry, we repair every gate type and the operator that drives it. Each style has its own weak points, so our technicians check the hardware, the track or hinges, and the opener together instead of fixing one symptom and leaving the cause behind.
Sliding Gate Repair
Sliding gates move a lot of weight along a single track, so small problems turn into big ones fast. We fix gates that come off track, grind, jerk or stop halfway. We replace worn V-groove wheels and guide rollers, straighten or re-anchor bent track, and adjust the gear rack so the opener drives the gate smoothly. Cantilever gates get new rollers, carriages and alignment.
Swing Gate Repair
Swing gates fail at the hinges, posts and operator arms. If your gate sags, drags, won’t latch or swings unevenly, we re-level the posts, replace worn hinges, and adjust or replace linear and articulated arms. On dual swing gates, we re-sync both leaves so they open together and meet cleanly in the center.
Automatic & Electric Gate Repair
Automatic gates combine mechanical parts with electronics, so the cause of a failure isn’t always obvious. We test the power supply, control board, limit switches, safety sensors, photo eyes, loop detectors, remotes and keypads to find the real fault, then repair or replace only what failed.
Driveway Gate Repair
Your driveway gate is used every day, often several times a day. We repair residential driveway gates of every size and style — manual or automated, single or double, swing or slide. Common jobs include sagging gates, broken latches, opener failures, panels damaged by vehicles, and remotes that stopped working.
Commercial & Industrial Gate Repair
A broken gate at an apartment complex, HOA entrance, warehouse or industrial facility affects traffic, deliveries and security at once. We service heavy-duty slide and swing operators, high-cycle openers, card readers, telephone entry systems and traffic control equipment, with priority response for property managers.
Barrier Arm & Security Gate Repair
Parking lots, gated communities and business entries rely on barrier arm gates to control vehicles. We replace broken arms, repair barrier operators, adjust timing and loop detectors, and connect barrier gates to access control. We also repair pedestrian security gates and access gates for offices and industrial sites.
Gate Opener and Gate Motor Repair in Houston
When the opener fails, even a perfect gate stops working. Our technicians repair swing, slide, barrier and underground openers, including motors, gearboxes, control boards, capacitors, limit switches, batteries and solar charging systems.
We also reprogram remotes, replace keypads and intercoms, and re-wire safety devices to meet UL 325 safety requirements. If a part has been discontinued, we recommend a compatible upgrade so you don’t have to replace the whole system.
Most gate opener repairs in Houston are completed on the first visit, because our vans carry the boards, motors and sensors that fail most often on LiftMaster, DoorKing, Viking, FAAC, Nice, BFT and other popular brands.

Should You Repair or Replace Your Gate?
When Repair Is Enough
Most gate problems can be repaired. Worn hinges, rollers, wheels, sensors, remotes, circuit boards and minor frame damage are all repairable, and repair usually costs far less than replacement. We always tell you first if a repair will solve the problem.
When Replacement Makes Sense
Replacement is the better choice when the frame is badly rusted or rotted, the gate is bent beyond straightening, the opener is obsolete and parts are unavailable, or repeated repairs cost more than a new system. Our gate replacement team then builds a gate sized for your property and Houston’s weather.

How Much Does Gate Repair Cost in Houston?
Gate repair cost depends on what failed, the gate’s material and size, and whether the gate is automated. A simple hinge, latch or sensor adjustment costs much less than a new motor, control board or welded frame repair. Commercial and high-cycle gates usually cost more because of heavier parts and operators. Regular maintenance is the easiest way to keep repair costs low. Lubricating hinges and rollers, clearing the track, tightening hardware and testing sensors once or twice a year prevents most of the breakdowns we see in Houston, especially after the hottest summer months and heavy storms.

Gate Repair FAQs
Answers to the questions Houston homeowners and property managers ask us most. Still have a question? Call us any time.
How fast can you repair my gate in Houston?
Most gate repairs are completed the same day you call. For emergencies, such as a gate stuck open or closed, we dispatch a technician 24/7, including nights, weekends and holidays.
Do you repair all types of gates?
Yes. We repair wood, steel, wrought iron, aluminum, chain link and vinyl gates, in sliding, swing, cantilever, barrier arm and automatic styles, for both homes and businesses.
Why is my electric gate not working?
The most common causes are a power or battery problem, a tripped breaker, misaligned safety sensors, a failed control board, worn gears or a remote that lost its programming. Our technicians test each part to find the actual fault.
My gate motor runs, but the gate won’t move. What’s wrong?
This usually points to a stripped gear, a broken drive chain or gear rack, a disengaged manual release, or a gate that is off its track. A technician needs to inspect the drive system.
Can you fix a sliding gate that came off its track?
Yes. We put the gate back on track, replace worn wheels and guide rollers, straighten or re-anchor the track, and adjust the opener so it doesn’t happen again.
How much does gate repair cost?
Cost depends on the part that failed, the gate material and whether the gate is automated. We provide a free estimate and a firm quote before starting any work.
Is it better to repair or replace my gate?
Repair is usually the better value. We recommend replacement only when the frame is badly rusted or rotted, the gate is severely damaged, or opener parts are no longer available.
Which gate opener brands do you repair?
We repair LiftMaster, DoorKing, Viking Access, FAAC, Nice, BFT, Elite, Mighty Mule, Apollo, US Automatic, Ghost Controls and most other residential and commercial brands.
Do you offer commercial gate repair and maintenance plans?
Yes. We repair commercial and industrial gates for HOAs, apartments, warehouses and offices, and offer scheduled maintenance plans with priority response.
