We provide independent Viking gate parts and welding in Colleyville, with most hinge, post, and weld repairs completed in one visit. A typical Viking gate parts job runs between $285 and $950 depending on whether we’re replacing one hinge or rebuilding a post that’s been pulling out of its footing for years. You’ll get an exact price before we start, and the work is covered by our written 90-Day Done Right Promise.

Call (817) 242-5426

This page is for Colleyville homeowners whose Viking gate has started dragging, sagging, or refusing to stay latched. If that’s you, call (817) 242-5426. A live person answers, day or night.

How Viking Products Fail - and How We Fix Them

• Sagging gate leaves on Viking R-6 and Titan models. We see this constantly in Colleyville’s clay-heavy soil. The gate was hung level, but the post has shifted over a decade of wet-dry freeze cycles. The gate leaf itself is usually fine. We re-set the post in a deeper footing, rebuild the hinge alignment, and the gate closes square again instead of scraping the driveway.
• Hinge barrel wear on older Viking Estate series gates. The factory hinges use a barrel-and-pin design that’s perfectly adequate until it isn’t. After 15 or 20 years of Colleyville wind load, the barrel elongates and the gate develops a drop you can see from the kitchen window. We replace the hinge set with weld-on units rated for the full leaf weight, and we do the welding in place so the gate never leaves your property.
• Cracked welds where the pickets meet the rail on Viking I-14 ornamental gates. The factory welds are thin. That’s not a knock on Viking, it’s just how production ornamental gates are built. Once rust gets into the joint, Colleyville’s humidity and the occasional ice storm open it right up. We grind out the failed weld, lay in a full-penetration pass, and it’s stronger than when the gate shipped.
• Roller track wear on Viking R-6 slide gates. The trolley wheels on the R-6 line are hard plastic or nylon. They’re quiet for the first few years, then they develop flat spots and the gate shudders every time it moves. Owners often think the motor is dying, but the drive is usually fine. We swap in steel or high-durometer rollers, re-shim the track, and the opener stops working so hard.
• Latch and lock failures on Viking pedestrian gates. The magnetic latch on several Viking walk-gate models stops holding after a couple of harsh summers. The spring loses tension, the gate won’t stay closed, and you can’t get the access keypad to function reliably because the gate is never actually closed. We replace the latch assembly with a heavy-duty unit, align the strike, and the keypad works the way it’s supposed to.

Our Viking Gate Parts & Welding Process

1. 1
   You call. A live person answers, takes down what’s happening with your gate, and schedules a visit. No phone tree, no holding pattern.
2. 2
   We inspect the gate and the hardware. We look at the hinges, the posts, the welds, the rollers, and the latch. We measure the gate leaf, check the post footing, and figure out exactly what’s failing and why.
3. 3
   We walk you through the parts decision. If OEM Viking parts are available at a sensible lead time, we quote them. If there’s a high-quality aftermarket option that fits the gate properly and performs better for less money, we’ll tell you that too. You decide. The price is settled before we turn a wrench.
4. 4
   We do the work. Welding is done on site. Posts are set properly. Hinges are aligned. The gate is adjusted until it opens and closes without fighting itself.
5. 5
   We test it thoroughly. A dozen open-close cycles, a check of the latch, a check of the motor’s travel limits. We don’t call it done until it behaves like a gate that won’t announce itself.
6. 6
   We stand behind it. Every Viking parts and welding job is covered by the 90-Day Done Right Promise, in writing. If something isn’t right, we come back and make it right. No paperwork, no arguing.

Why Colleyville Homeowners Call Ironworks Gate Co. for Viking Work

Victor Salinas grew up in Colleyville, not far from Bransford Road, where half the driveways have iron gates and the other half are working up to it. That’s not just a line. It’s why we treat every Viking gate like it belongs to a neighbor, because it usually does. Our technicians are background-checked and uniformed, and they work in your yard the way they’d work in their own mother’s. Beyond Viking, we service LiftMaster, Mighty Mule, Ghost Controls, and DoorKing openers, which means when a Viking repair involves the drive system, we don’t have to call anyone else. Every job is done right, priced before we start, and backed in writing with the 90-Day Done Right Promise. As Victor puts it, a gate that works right doesn’t announce itself. That’s the whole idea.
