AfterGate Repair in Burleson, TX
Gate motor and opener repair in Burleson usually means one of two jobs: a swing-gate operator that quit after the last ice storm, or a slide-gate controller that died on a neighborhood entry along FM 1187 and locked everyone out at once. Most of the automated driveway gates in Burleson were installed between 2000 and 2018 as part of HOA subdivision builds, which means a large wave of those systems is now hitting the 15-to-20-year failure window at the same time. Call (928) 260-0864 and a live person answers, any hour, any day.
Why Burleson Homes Are Different
Burleson sits right where DFW suburban tract development stops and Johnson County acreage begins. A single repair route can start with an ornamental iron swing gate in a 2005 subdivision off Alsbury Boulevard, then end the afternoon re-hanging a welded pipe ranch gate on a five-acre lot southwest of town. Those two gates share almost no hardware, so the technician has to carry both residential control boards and heavy agricultural hinges on the same truck.
The soil underneath most of Burleson is Blackland Prairie clay. It swells when it rains and shrinks when it dries, and that cycle pushes gate posts out of plumb season after season. We reset more posts in Burleson for clay heave than for any other single reason, and the problem comes back every time a drought breaks. Winter ice events through this southern DFW corridor also seize opener mechanisms and crack wood gate frames when water gets into joints and freezes. Slide-gate systems on neighborhood entry corridors are especially exposed: one lightning strike or ice event can take out the single access controller for an entire subdivision, which turns a routine repair into an urgent, high-priority call.
Our Main Burleson Services
Burleson homeowners call us most often for two jobs: repairing an existing automated gate that has stopped working, and installing a new gate or opener system on a property that never had one. Both are covered below, with dedicated pages for each.
Gate Repair in Burleson
Most repair calls in Burleson come from gates that worked fine for years and then failed suddenly: a swing arm that won’t move after a storm, a keypad that stopped reading codes, or a slide gate that grinds halfway and stops. We diagnose the actual fault, show you the problem in a photograph before any work begins, and hand you a written price. Every repair is covered by our 365-Day Done Right Promise. Gate Repair in Burleson has full detail on what a typical repair includes.
Gate Installation in Burleson
New construction and older semi-rural properties on Burleson’s edges both need full installations: new posts set below the clay line, a gate built or ordered to fit, and an opener matched to the weight and swing of the gate. We quote the entire job in writing before any material is ordered, and the finished project leaves with a photographed record of every setting. Gate Installation in Burleson covers the process, timeline, and what to expect on the day of the install.

BeforeAfterGate Motor & Opener in Burleson
Gate motor and opener repair in Burleson is our busiest service, driven by two local realities: the 2000-2018 housing boom put automated driveway gates on thousands of homes whose openers are now aging out, and the Blackland Prairie clay under those gates is constantly working against the operator’s limit settings. When a post heaves even a half inch, the gate binds, the motor strains, and the limit switch trips. We service nine major automation brands, including Ghost Controls, DoorKing, and Mighty Mule, so we repair the opener already on your property rather than pushing a replacement. Find more detail on our Gate Motor & Opener service hub.
Motor Repair
Signs you need it
The gate moves slower than it did last year, stops mid-travel, or hums without moving at all.
What it costs in Burleson
Motor repairs in Burleson typically run $180-$340, depending on whether we’re replacing a capacitor, a limit switch assembly, or rewiring a shorted arm.
How we do it
We open the operator housing, identify the failed component, photograph the original wiring, install the replacement, and reset travel limits to match the current post position.
Motor Installation
Signs you need it
The existing motor has been repaired before, the housing is cracked or water-damaged, or a swing gate opener is undersized for the gate’s current weight.
What it costs in Burleson
A full motor replacement in Burleson usually runs $450-$900, with the exact figure set by brand, gate weight, and whether the existing arm bracket is intact.
How we do it
We spec the motor to the gate’s measured weight and opening arc, install it, set travel limits and force, and leave you with a written record of every setting and the part number installed.
What Gate Motor & Opener Costs in Burleson
| Item | Typical range in Burleson |
|---|---|
| Motor repair | $180 - $340 |
| Motor replacement / installation | $450 - $900 |
| Limit switch reset / adjustment | $95 - $150 |
Can you fix a gate motor the same day in Burleson?
Yes. We keep common control boards, capacitors, and limit switches on the truck, so most Burleson motor repairs are completed on the first visit. Call (928) 260-0864 to get a technician dispatched today.
Do you work on Gate Motors made by Ghost Controls or DoorKing?
Both. We service Ghost Controls, DoorKing, Elite, Mighty Mule, and five other major brands, so we repair the opener you already have. The written price is handed to you before any work begins.
Gate Access Control in Burleson
Gate access control in Burleson covers the electronics that decide who gets in: keypads, remote receivers, phone-entry modules, card readers, and video intercoms. The local twist is that several newer subdivisions along FM 1187 and Alsbury Boulevard run entire neighborhoods through a single slide-gate controller, so one failed access point locks out every resident at once. We diagnose the controller, the wiring back to the gate operator, or the reader itself, and we document every setting we change. Learn more on our Gate Access Control service hub.
Keypad Entry
Signs you need it
The keypad beeps but doesn’t open the gate, works intermittently in wet weather, or the buttons have worn smooth and stopped responding to codes.
What it costs in Burleson
Keypad replacement or reprogramming in Burleson runs $120-$280, depending on whether we’re installing a new weather-sealed unit or just resetting codes on the existing one.
How we do it
We test the keypad’s output at the controller, isolate whether the fault is in the keypad or the control board, and either replace the unit or reprogram it with a written record of every code set.
Remote Control
Signs you need it
The gate opens for the keypad but not the remote, the remote works only from a few feet away, or a lost remote was never deleted from the system.
What it costs in Burleson
Remote setup, replacement, or receiver repair in Burleson typically runs $95-$220, including the cost of the new receiver if one is needed.
How we do it
We identify the receiver frequency, test its range from the driveway, replace or reprogram it, and delete any lost or unaccounted remote codes from the controller.
What Gate Access Control Costs in Burleson
| Item | Typical range in Burleson |
|---|---|
| Keypad replacement / reprogramming | $120 - $280 |
| Remote setup / receiver repair | $95 - $220 |
| Phone entry / video intercom module | $250 - $600 |
Can you add a keypad to an existing gate in Burleson?
Yes. We wire the keypad into your existing opener’s input terminals and program the codes while you watch. The price is quoted in writing before we start, and the finished wiring is photographed for your record.
What happens when a neighborhood entry controller fails?
We treat subdivision slide-gate controller failures on Burleson’s entry corridors as high-priority calls, since every resident is affected at once. A technician can usually restore access within hours and document the replacement board and settings.
Gate Parts & Welding in Burleson
Gate parts and welding in Burleson means two different kinds of work. On the HOA subdivision side, we replace worn hinges, rollers, and latches on ornamental iron and aluminum gates. On the semi-rural perimeter, we weld and re-hang heavy pipe and tubular steel gates built for livestock duty on acreage. The clay soil underneath everything means we see more post heave and hinge misalignment in Burleson than in neighboring towns, and welding is often the only fix that holds. Our Gate Parts & Welding hub covers the full scope of parts and fabrication work.
Hinge Replacement
Signs you need it
The gate drags on the latch side, sags visibly when open, or creaks loud enough to hear from inside the house.
What it costs in Burleson
Hinge replacement on a residential gate in Burleson runs $150-$350 per pair, depending on gate weight and whether the hinge posts need realignment at the same time.
How we do it
We lift the gate off its pins, mark and weld or bolt the new hinges in place, and photograph the finished install with the gate swinging freely.
Post Replacement
Signs you need it
The gate post leans more than a few degrees off vertical, the concrete footing has cracked, or the gate no longer latches because the post moved.
What it costs in Burleson
Post replacement in Burleson clay typically runs $250-$700 per post, including digging past the heave line, new concrete, and re-hanging the gate.
How we do it
We pull the old post, dig the new hole below the clay expansion depth, set the post in concrete, and wait for it to cure before re-hanging the gate and resetting the opener limits.
What Gate Parts & Welding Costs in Burleson
| Item | Typical range in Burleson |
|---|---|
| Hinge replacement | $150 - $350 per pair |
| Post replacement | $250 - $700 per post |
| Custom welding / rail repair | $100 - $400 per section |
Do you weld ranch gates in Burleson?
Yes. We carry a mobile welder and stock heavy-gauge steel tubing and pipe for ranch and livestock gate repairs on Burleson’s acreage properties. The written price includes material, labor, and a photograph of the finished weld.
Can you fix a gate that’s dragging because of clay soil?
That’s the most common parts call in Burleson. Clay expansion pushes posts out of alignment; we reset the post, replace the hinge if it’s worn, and re-level the gate so the opener isn’t fighting the dirt. Estimates are free.
