AfterGate Company in Burleson, TX
Latch & Post Gate Repair is the gate company Burleson homeowners call when a post has leaned out of plumb, a latch no longer catches, or an opener that’s 15 years old finally quits. Burleson sits on Blackland Prairie clay that swells and shrinks with the seasons, so gates here move more than they do in most of the Metroplex. We work both sides of town: the HOA subdivisions off Alsbury Boulevard and McAlister Road, and the acreage properties along FM 1187 and FM 731. Call (626) 649-4572 any hour and a live person answers.
Why Burleson Homes Are Different
Burleson marks the exact edge of DFW’s southward suburban expansion, and gate work here reflects that split. One call might be a builder-installed ornamental iron driveway gate in a 2010s master-planned subdivision. The next is a pipe-panel ranch gate on an FM-road property that’s been swinging on the same hinges for decades. Most of the residential stock is post-2000 brick ranch and two-story homes on quarter- to half-acre lots, many governed by HOAs that spell out ornamental steel or wrought-iron fencing requirements in the covenants. That means a gate that’s sagging no longer just bothers you; it can draw a notice from the architectural review committee.
The bigger force at work is the soil. Burleson sits squarely on the Blackland Prairie’s expansive clay. Spring and winter rains make it swell; summer drought pulls it tight and cracks it. That seasonal cycle heaves posts out of alignment and pulls them away from their concrete footings. Post lean and latch misalignment are the two repair calls we get most often here, year after year. Add North Texas ice storms in January and February, which freeze motorized operators and split wooden boards, and you have a very specific set of local conditions. We plan around all of it.
Our Main Burleson Services
Most Burleson homeowners reach us for one of three things: a repair, a new installation, or work on an electric opener. Here’s how each one works locally.
Gate Repair in Burleson
A gate that drags, won’t latch, or leans is usually a fix, not a replacement. In Burleson the most common culprit is clay movement; the post shifts, the hinges bind, and the latch misses its strike. We straighten or reset posts, replace worn hinges and latch hardware, and align the gate so it opens without dragging. We carry parts for Linear, Viking, Ghost Controls, and DoorKing systems. Before any work starts you get a written price, not an estimate with fine print. For the full picture, see Gate Repair in Burleson.
Gate Installation in Burleson
New gates in Burleson usually mean one of two jobs: a custom ornamental steel driveway gate for an HOA property, or a pipe-panel ranch gate for acreage out toward the FM corridors. We measure, order, and schedule the install; nothing is rushed because it shouldn’t be. Posts get set deep enough to resist the clay movement, concrete cures, and the gate is hung and adjusted by hand. You get a written price before the job is scheduled. Details are on our Gate Installation in Burleson page.
Electric Gate Repair in Burleson
The mid-2000s building wave in Burleson installed a large number of LiftMaster and GTO/Linear residential openers that are now aging out together. We see a disproportionate volume of end-of-life operator replacements off Alsbury Boulevard and McAlister Road compared to neighboring cities. The work spans fried control boards, failed limit switches, stripped drive gears, and full operator swaps. We are factory-trained on LiftMaster, FAAC, BFT, Linear, Viking, Ghost Controls, DoorKing, Elite, and Mighty Mule. Read more at Electric Gate Repair in Burleson.

Pricing for Gate Company in Burleson, TX
| Service | Typical range in Burleson |
|---|---|
| Gate repair service call | $49-$99 |
| Gate latch replacement | $150-$350 |
| Hinge replacement (pair) | $200-$450 |
| Post reset / concrete footer | $350-$850 |

Burleson pricing gets pushed upward by two local realities: clay-related post resetting takes more concrete and more time than a simple hinge swap, and HOA-covenant ornamental steel costs more to match than a standard pipe-panel gate. Whatever the number ends up being, you see it in writing and we agree on it before any work begins.
