We’ve been serving Everman and the surrounding communities for over 42 years.

Our Gate Parts & Welding Services in Everman
Hinge Replacement
Original hinges on Everman’s 1970s through 1990s gates weren’t built for North Texas extremes. Repeated 100°F summers cook the grease out of steel hinges, and ice storms like February 2021’s Winter Storm Uri seize and crack them. We’ve replaced hinges on gates along Everman Parkway where the originals had rusted to paper-thin flakes. A typical hinge replacement in Everman runs $180-$320 for a standard swing gate, including removal of the corroded hardware, surface prep, and installation of heavy-duty ball-bearing or greaseable hinges rated for the gate’s actual weight.
Post Replacement
This is where Everman’s black clay soil makes gate repair a specialty trade. The expansive clay heaves dramatically during wet winters and spring rains, then shrinks hard in summer drought - a seasonal cycle that repeatedly torques gate posts out of plumb. On Everman’s older residential streets, cedar privacy gate posts were commonly set with shallow concrete collars that don’t reach through the active clay layer. They rock, heave, and twist after just a few wet-dry cycles. We’ve pulled and reset posts throughout the 76140 ZIP code, sinking new footings 36 inches or deeper to get below the active soil layer. Post replacement in Everman typically costs $350-$650, including extraction, deeper footing with proper drainage, and rehanging the gate to true plumb. It’s more than a hardware fix. It’s solving the root cause so you’re not calling us back next spring.
Rail Repair
Chain-link gates in Everman neighborhoods like those near Town Center often suffer rail sag or separation where the top rail pulls from the end post fitting. Heat expansion and ice contraction work the joints until they fail. We cut out damaged rail sections, sleeve or replace as needed, and re-weld or re-fit to original tension. Rail repair in Everman generally runs $220-$400.
Custom Welding
When a one-piece cedar gate warps and splits from thermal cycling, replacement isn’t always necessary or practical. We’ve fabricated steel brace frames and welded them to salvage old gates that still have solid wood in them. Custom welding in Everman starts around $280 for basic bracing and goes to $550 for more extensive frame fabrication. On a wood privacy gate off Everman Parkway, we found the original LiftMaster opener straining because the post had settled 2 inches into the clay after Winter Storm Uri. We reset the post on a deeper concrete footing and replaced the corroded hinge pins, restoring smooth operation. The gate stayed. The problem left.

Common Gate Parts & Welding Problems We See in Everman Homes
- Shallow post footings heaving in black clay. On Everman’s 1960s-1990s streets, original gate posts were set with concrete collars too shallow for the active clay layer. The posts tilt, the gate binds, and no amount of hinge adjustment fixes it. We pull and reset with deeper footings.
- 1990s chain-link hinges rusted through. North Texas heat and periodic ice storms destroy original steel hinges. We’ve seen them snap under load on gates near Everman Parkway. Replacement with heavy-duty, greasable hinges solves it for the long term.
- Cedar gates warped beyond latching. Extreme heat and hard freezes cycle old one-piece cedar gates until they twist and split. Custom welding of steel brace frames can salvage a gate that’s structurally sound but geometrically lost.
- Opener strain from settled posts. When clay soil drops a post two inches, the opener works overtime and fails prematurely. We fix the post first, then address the motor if needed. Fixing only the motor guarantees a repeat call.

FAQs - Gate Parts & Welding in Everman
Your posts are almost certainly set in Everman’s expansive black clay soil with shallow concrete footings that don’t reach below the active layer. Hinge adjustment can’t compensate for a post that has heaved or settled two inches. We pull the post and reset it on a deeper footing with proper drainage - typically 36 inches or more - which solves the root cause. Call (833) 754-7503 and we’ll assess whether your posts can be saved or need full replacement.
Yes, if the surrounding frame is structurally sound. We cut out the damaged section, sleeve or splice with matching tubing, and weld to restore tension and alignment. If the frame is too far gone, we’ll tell you straight and quote replacement. Estimates are free - call (833) 754-7503.
Probably not. In Everman, heavy rains saturate the black clay, causing posts to heave and shift. The gate binds in the frame, and the opener detects the excess load as an obstruction. We check post plumb and hinge condition first. Motor replacement without fixing the binding will fail again. Call (833) 754-7503 for diagnosis.
Check the post with a level. If it’s plumb and the gate still sags or binds, hinges are likely the issue. If the post leans, moves when you push it, or has visible concrete heaving at grade, the footing has failed and no hinge will fix it. We assess both during our free estimate in Everman.
Yes. We’re trained and equipped on FAAC, including legacy models from the 1990s. Freeze damage typically affects control boards, limit switches, or hydraulic fluid viscosity. We carry common FAAC parts and can often repair rather than replace older units. For a free second opinion on any replacement quote you’ve received, call (833) 754-7503.
