AfterGate Company in Addison, TX
Addison, TX isn’t a typical suburban gate market. Most of the town is apartment communities and commercial property, which means the gate work here leans heavily toward 25-to-40-year-old slide gates, swing gates at condo entrances, and high-cycle security gates along Belt Line Road. The Blackland Prairie clay under Addison shifts with every wet-dry season, and that movement slowly pulls gate posts out of alignment. That’s the work we do at Latch & Post Gate Repair: straightening what the soil tilted, replacing what 400 cycles a day wore out, and giving you a written price before we touch anything. Call (626) 649-4572 and a live person answers, any hour.
Why Addison Homes Are Different
Addison was built out as a restaurant, office, and multifamily town from the late 1970s through the 1990s, and the original gates on those apartment and condo communities are still in service today. A slide gate installed in 1987 has now opened and closed somewhere north of a million cycles. The operator didn’t fail because it was cheap; it failed because it was specced for a tenth of the traffic it actually carried. When we replace one of those, we quote commercial-grade equipment from the start: FAAC and LiftMaster hardware built for the cycle count Addison actually delivers, not the cycle count a residential spec sheet assumes.
The clay is the second problem. North Texas expansive soils swell when wet and shrink when dry, and Addison’s concrete gate footings move with them. We see slide gates riding up on their track wheels every spring after a wet winter, and frozen gearboxes every time an ice storm sweeps through the entertainment corridor. A technician who only tightens a few bolts and leaves will be back next month; the honest fix means resetting the post or repositioning the track so the gate actually runs square. That’s the kind of repair Addison properties need, and it’s the kind we quote honestly the first time.
Our Main Addison Services
These are the three jobs Addison property managers and condo board members call us about most. Each one has its own Addison page with the full pricing detail:
Gate Repair in Addison
The biggest slice of Addison gate repair is mechanical: bent track, sagging hinges on a 500-pound swing gate, a broken wheel, a latch that hasn’t slid into the receiver since the last frost heave. On apartment and commercial gates that run 18 hours a day, small problems become expensive ones quickly, so we’re upfront about what’s worth fixing and what’s ready for replacement. We lay drop cloths inside any gatehouse or lobby we walk through, and we never quote a repair without first listening to the gate run. See the full scope on Gate Repair in Addison.
Gate Installation in Addison
Most new installations in Addison are commercial replacement projects: an old slide gate is beyond repair, or a condo board is tired of the monthly repair invoice and wants a fresh start. We measure, order, and schedule, then install with the post set deep enough for Addison’s clay and the operator specced for real traffic, not the light-duty option. You get a written price before any materials are ordered, and our crews protect the surrounding surfaces while they work. Details are on Gate Installation in Addison.
Electric Gate Repair in Addison
When a gate stops opening for the delivery truck at 6 a.m. or a restaurant’s rear security gate refuses to close, it’s usually the operator, loop detector, or limit switch. In Addison, the traffic count means those components fail years before the gate itself does. We carry parts for the brands properties actually run: Viking, DoorKing, Elite, and Ghost Controls. The full breakdown is on Electric Gate Repair in Addison.

What Addison Customers Say
"Our gate opener quit and they came out quick. The tech was careful not to leave the yard open while our dog was out, which I really appreciated. Clean work, swept up the metal shavings."
- Eleanor Boggs"New hinges welded on a heavy gate. They laid down protection so no sparks hit the driveway and cleaned every bit after. Respectful of the property and the result is solid."
- Derek Pulanco"Electric gate was acting up. He was calm and methodical, found the bad sensor, and tidied the whole area by the gate post when he finished. No grease left on the driveway."
