Fast, Reliable Gate Parts & Welding Across Keller

When a driveway gate in Keller stops swinging square or a hinge post starts leaning, the fix usually comes down to two things: the right part and a weld that holds. We handle both. Our Gate Parts & Welding team works throughout Keller’s master-planned neighborhoods, from Hidden Lakes to the 76244 and 76248 zip codes, replacing sagging hinges, re-plumbing posts that Keller’s black clay has shifted, and welding ornamental iron so it lines up like the day it was hung. If your gate is binding at the latch or throwing fault codes, call (817) 242-5426 and we’ll send a technician who knows Keller’s gates and Keller’s ground.

Why Ironworks Gate Co. Is Keller’s Preferred Gate Parts & Welding Company

Keller homeowners call us because we’ve spent 42 years working on ornamental iron and the operators that move it, and because Keller’s housing stock has a particular signature. Most of the automated driveway gates in this city were installed between 1993 and 2012, when builders put iron gates on homes in Hidden Lakes and similar subdivisions as standard features. Those gates are now reaching the age where factory hinge welds crack, posts drift, and builder-grade operators give out. We see it on the same streets year after year, and we’ve learned exactly what those failures look like before we ever pull up.

Victor Salinas leads our Keller work, and the crews he sends are background-checked and uniformed. We quote the job before we start, we show up when we say, and every repair carries the 90-Day Done Right Promise in writing. If it is not right, we come back and make it right. No paperwork, no arguing.

We answer the phone live, 24 hours a day. When a Keller gate will not close and the dog is in the backyard or the house is open to the street, you do not want a call queue. Call (817) 242-5426 and a person picks up.

Our Gate Parts & Welding Services in Keller

Hinge Replacement

Keller’s ornamental iron gates are heavy, often 300 pounds or more on a swing gate. When a hinge barrel wears or a factory weld cracks at the post, the gate droops at the latch side and scrapes the driveway. We replace hinges with heavy-duty units sized for the gate’s actual weight, not the builder’s original spec. In Keller, that difference matters: a 1990s Hidden Lakes gate was often hung on hinges rated for half the load the iron actually carries. We also repair the post-side weld properly so the new hinge does not inherit the old alignment problem.

Post Replacement

Keller sits on expansive black clay. It swells with spring rain and shrinks in the summer, and a gate post set in a shallow footing will heave, lean, or sink within a few seasons. We re-set gate posts in deeper footings with steel sleeves where the soil demands it, then re-hang the gate so it swings true. This is not a one-size job. A post on Marshall Ridge with a clay-heavy lot may need a different footing than one on bedrock-heavy ground near the 76248 side of town. We dig it, we check it, we set it right.

Rail Repair

When a swing gate sags, the horizontal rails take stress they were never meant to carry. Over time, rail pickets crack at the welds or the rail bows. We cut out the damaged section, weld in new material, and grind the joint smooth so the repair is invisible once it is painted. We also check the gate’s geometry while we are there. A rail that cracked once will crack again if the gate is still out of square, which is why we address the alignment, not just the weld.

Custom Welding

Keller homeowners ask for custom ironwork when they want to match an existing fence line, add a pedestrian gate to a driveway opening, or repair decorative scrollwork that no longer has a matching replacement part. Our welders fabricate and match ornamental iron on site, and the finished weld gets ground, prepped, and painted to blend. If you have a broken finial, a torn scroll, or a hinge that needs to be built up and re-drilled, we do the work in-house, not subcontracted out.

Trusted Brands We Service in Keller

Gate ironwork and gate operators are two different trades, and in Keller they fail together. We service Viking, DoorKing, Elite, and Ghost Controls operators, among others, and we keep common parts on the truck so most repairs finish in one visit. When a Keller gate throws a fault code after a post shift, the operator often just needs limit switches reset and the gate re-balanced, not a new motor. Knowing that distinction has saved Keller homeowners thousands of dollars over the years, because we fix the cause, not just the code.

Common Gate Parts & Welding Problems We See in Keller Homes

• Undersized builder-grade operators fighting heavy iron gates. Keller builders in the 1990s and 2000s often paired a 300-plus pound ornamental swing gate with a residential operator rated for far less. As the gate ages and sags even an inch or two at the latch, the operator overheats, strips gears, and fails. The fix is usually a heavier hinge and a properly rated operator, not another builder-grade motor.
• Factory hinge welds cracking at the post after clay heave. When a Keller gate post leans out of plumb, all the gate’s weight shifts to the top hinge. The lower hinge barrel snaps, the gate drops, and the operator throws codes. Re-welding the hinge without fixing the post just repeats the failure in a year or two.
• Original power and conduit runs that no longer reach. Many 1990s Keller homes ran conduit only as far as the original manual gate location. When a homeowner wants to add a keypad, a loop detector, or an automatic opener at a different spot, the existing conduit falls short by a few feet and the new run has to cross flagstone or landscape beds. We plan the conduit route before we cut anything, so the work is done without wrecking the yard.
• Sagging gates scraping over driveway pavers. In Keller subdivisions where driveways are stamped concrete or pavers, even a 1-inch sag means the latch side drags with every cycle. The scrape is the first thing you notice, but the real damage is to the actuator arm and the gate’s rail joints. We square the gate, reset the hinges, and the operator stops fighting itself.
