If your gate is stuck open, sagging into the latch post, or the motor just hums without moving, you want someone who knows Plano’s gates and Plano’s clay soil. That’s what we do. Pinehurst Gate Repair fixes manual and electric gates across Plano, from 75093 up through 75024, and we quote the price before any work starts. Call us at (877) 265-5743 and we’ll send a gate specialist, not a general handyman.

Plano gates fail in predictable ways. The black clay under your subdivision swells after spring rain and shrinks in August heat, so posts heave and hinges twist out of line. Builder-grade operators that were undersized from day one burn out their motors. Manual gates retrofitted with automation end up with exposed wiring someone has to fix. We see all of it, and we have the parts and the know-how to put it right.
Why Pinehurst Gate Repair Is Plano’s Preferred Gate Repair Company
We’re gate specialists, not generalists. That distinction matters more in Plano than almost anywhere else, because so many of the gates here sit inside HOA-governed master-planned communities. Your gate has to work, and it has to match the original builder profile. A fence company that occasionally hangs a gate isn’t thinking about either of those things the way we do.
Our technicians work on nine major gate and operator brands including Linear, Viking, Ghost Controls, and DoorKing, plus LiftMaster, FAAC, and BFT. That means when your DoorKing board loses power or your Viking arm has sheared a gear, we diagnose it from specific brand knowledge, not guesswork. We don’t show up hoping the problem is generic.
Ronnie Beshears runs the crew and has spent years working on Plano gates specifically. He knows which subdivisions off Legacy Drive and the Dallas North Tollway have which builder-grade operators, and he knows how Plano’s clay behaves under a hinge post. That kind of local knowledge saves you money because we find the real problem the first visit.
Styles & brands we work with





Gate Welding in Plano
Gate welding in Plano is the repair you need when a steel or ornamental iron gate has cracked at a hinge, torn at the frame corner, or broken a picket loose from years of opening and closing against shifting post footings. Weld and rust repair on a typical driveway gate in Plano runs $250 to $600 depending on how many welds and how much grinding and repainting the job takes. A full gate rebuild with new steel sections and post reinforcement starts around $1,200 and can reach $2,500 for larger estate gates.
Weld Repair on Builder-Grade Steel Gates
Plano’s 1980s to 2000s tract homes often came with steel driveway gates that were fine when installed but have now spent decades flexing against clay-soil movement. We weld the cracks, reinforce the hinge plates, and re-hang the gate so it doesn’t drag. If rust has thinned the metal too far, we cut out the bad section and splice in new steel before repainting.
Iron Gate Restoration and Rust Control
Rust on ornamental iron gates isn’t just cosmetic in Plano. Summer heat accelerates oxidation, and the wet-dry clay cycle flexes the metal until surface rust becomes structural rot. We grind back to clean steel, weld any perforated sections, treat the surface, and repaint with a finish matched to your gate’s original color. In HOA communities, matching that finish exactly keeps you out of architectural-review trouble.
Commercial Gate Repair in Plano
Commercial gate repair in Plano covers slide gates, barrier arms, and heavy swing gates at apartment complexes, office parks, and industrial properties across the city from Legacy West to the 75 Central corridor. Repair rates for commercial slide gate systems in Plano typically run $350 to $900 depending on the operator brand and whether the issue is mechanical, electrical, or both. A failed control board replacement on a commercial slide operator can run $800 to $1,500 including parts and programming.
Slide Gate Operator and Track Repair
Commercial slide gates in Plano take a beating from constant cycling and from debris that builds up in the track. We work on Viking, DoorKing, and LiftMaster commercial operators, replacing motors, limit switches, and control boards. We also regrade or reset the track when clay movement has thrown it out of level, which is common on older Plano properties.

Access Control Integration for Plano Properties
When a Plano office building or apartment complex needs the gate repaired and the access system updated, we handle the low-voltage side too. Keypads, telephone entry, loop detectors, and safety photocells all have to work together with the operator. We test entrapment protection on every commercial automatic gate we touch, because UL 325 compliance is not optional on a property where tenants and visitors cycle that gate daily.
Trusted Brands We Service in Plano
We work on the brand you already have. That’s the whole point of us. Whether your Linear swing operator has blown a capacitor, your Ghost Controls board won’t respond to the remote, or your Viking slide gate has jumped its track in a west Plano HOA community, we have the diagnostic experience to isolate the failure and the local parts connections to get it running again. DoorKing, LiftMaster, FAAC, BFT, Elite, Mighty Mule: if it opens a gate, we have probably repaired one this month. You don’t have to rip out a good gate because the operator failed. We fix the operator, and the gate stays original.

AfterCommon Gate Repair Problems We See in Plano Homes
- Clay-soil post heave and hinge misalignment. Plano sits on Blackland Prairie clay that swells when wet and shrinks in drought. Gate posts set at standard depth in that soil move enough to bind a gate within two seasons. We reset posts with deeper, wider footings and realign the hinges so the gate swings true again.
- Builder-grade operators that were undersized from day one. Many Plano subdivision gates got an operator sized for a light gate rather than the actual gate weight. The motor strains for years, then fails. We replace the operator with a properly rated one, often reusing your existing gate and remotes.
- Manual gates retrofitted with automation and exposed wiring. When a previous owner added an opener to a manual gate without running conduit, you get wire stapled along the fence and a code violation. We re-run the power properly, install conduit, and add the safety edges and photocells that UL 325 requires.
- Rust, wood rot, and heat-weathered gate faces. Plano summers crack cedar gates and accelerate rust on steel and iron. In HOA communities, you can’t just paint it any color or swap in a different gate style. We repair and refinish to match the original material and finish, keeping your architectural review clean.

FAQs About Gate Repair in Plano
Yes, and this is standard practice for us in Plano. We match the original gate profile, material, and finish when we repair or rebuild. In west Plano subdivisions like Kings Ridge off Legacy Drive, we’ve replaced failed operators and reset posts while keeping the gate visually identical to the builder’s original, which keeps you clear of architectural-review violations. Call (877) 265-5743 and tell us your subdivision; we already know how the review process works in most of them.
Because the problem is almost never the hinges in Plano, it’s the post. The clay soil under your gate post expands and contracts with every wet-dry cycle, and if the post wasn’t set deep enough, it moves and the whole gate drops. We reset the post deeper with a wider concrete footing, then realign the hinges. That’s the only fix that lasts through the next Texas drought. Expect to pay $350 to $700 per post for the proper reset.
You should know that a proper automatic gate installation in Plano needs a dedicated power run, conduit to protect the wiring, safety photocells or edge sensors, and an operator sized for your gate’s actual weight. Retrofitting a manual gate is absolutely doable, but doing it without those four things leaves you with exposed wiring, a code violation, and a gate that could entrap a person or pet. We handle the full retrofit: power, conduit, safety, and operator. Free measure and written quote before any work starts. Call (877) 265-5743.
We service LiftMaster, FAAC, BFT, Linear, Viking, Ghost Controls, DoorKing, Elite, and Mighty Mule. That’s nine brands covering the full range from residential swing gates to commercial slide operators. We diagnose from brand-specific knowledge, so when your DoorKing control board fails or your Viking arm shears a gear, we find it fast. Call (877) 265-5743 and tell us the brand; we’ll bring the right diagnostic gear the first trip.
Most rusted iron gates and cracked wood gates in Plano can be repaired. We grind rust back to clean steel, weld any structural damage, treat the surface, and repaint to match. For cedar gates, we replace the rotted boards, reinforce the frame, and re-hang on corrected hinges. Replacement is only necessary when the frame itself has failed beyond a safe weld or the wood has rotted through in multiple sections. We’ll tell you straight which one you’re looking at, and the repair or replacement price before we start. Call (877) 265-5743 for a free assessment.
If your gate in Plano is sagging, stuck, or the operator won’t respond, call us today at (877) 265-5743. We’ll schedule a time, walk the gate with you, give you the number before any work begins, and fix it right the first time. Serving all of Plano including 75093, 75094, 75023, and 75024.
