Fast, Local Gate Repair
When a gate fails, it is a security risk for your home and a hassle for your daily routine. We know that homeowners in Plano value their time, which is why we do not rely on voicemail trees or call centers. When you call our team, you speak to a person who understands the mechanics of entry systems. Our technicians arrive in fully stocked service vehicles equipped to handle repairs for nine major brands, including LiftMaster, FAAC, BFT, Linear, Viking, Ghost Controls, DoorKing, Elite, and Mighty Mule.
We believe in upfront pricing. Before we turn a single bolt or adjust a single sensor, we explain the problem and the cost to fix it. There are no surprises on the final bill. Every repair we complete is backed by our 90-Day Done Right Promise. This is our Keystone Standard: if the repair does not hold or something is not working exactly as it should, we return to make it right, without paperwork or arguments. We serve the Plano area with the same level of care we would use on our own homes, ensuring that your gate operates smoothly and securely long after we leave your driveway.
Serving Plano and the Towns Around It
Our service area covers the broad North Texas region, centered on our home base in Plano. We understand the local geography, from the older estates in North Dallas to the newer developments in the northern suburbs. We have crews positioned to reach you efficiently, regardless of whether you are near the tollway or deeper into the suburbs.
To the south, we provide gate repair in Dallas, navigating the city’s unique traffic patterns to ensure we meet your appointment window. We also handle service calls in Garland and Mesquite, where we often work on older, custom-welded iron gates that require specific structural knowledge to restore properly.
Moving west and central, our technicians are on the road daily providing gate service in Irving and Grand Prairie. These areas often feature complex entry systems that require precision calibration of photo-eyes and safety sensors. Further north and northwest, we regularly assist homeowners with gate maintenance in Frisco and McKinney, where high wind loads can stress gate hinges and operators over time.
Finally, we maintain a strong presence in Carrollton and Denton, as well as the neighborhoods in Richardson. Whether you have a sliding gate that has jumped the track or a swing gate opener that is struggling to reverse, our team is familiar with the common issues affecting gates in these specific climates and soil conditions.
Understanding Gate Repair Costs
Gate repair costs depend on the specific component that has failed. A minor adjustment or sensor alignment is significantly less expensive than replacing a circuit board or a motor assembly. Because we provide upfront pricing, you will know the exact cost before we begin the work. We also offer a $50 discount on any repair over $250 to help keep your maintenance costs manageable.
| Service Type | Estimated Price Range |
|---|---|
| Safety Sensor/Photo-Eye Alignment | $150 - $250 |
| Hinge Welding & Structural Repair | $200 - $450 |
| Control Board Replacement (Labor + Part) | $450 - $850 |
| Gate Opener Motor Repair | $350 - $700 |
| Seasonal Tune-Up (Preventative) | $89 |
If you have received a quote from another company, we offer a Free Second Opinion on any written estimate to ensure you are getting a fair price for the necessary work. Call (833) 754-7503 to discuss your specific gate model and the symptoms you are seeing.
Safety and Professional Maintenance
Automatic gates are heavy, powerful machines. High-tension springs, heavy-duty chains, and powerful motors can cause serious injury if they are handled improperly. We strongly advise against attempting to force a stuck gate open by hand or adjusting high-voltage electrical components unless you have specific training. If your gate is currently stuck, the safest course of action is to disconnect the power, secure the gate in its current position, and call a professional to assess the mechanical failure.
Our technicians are background-checked and uniformed. They follow the K.E.Y.S. values code: Krafted right, Every time, Your home first, Standing behind it. We treat your property with respect, cleaning up after ourselves and ensuring the workspace is safe before we finish. Whether you need a simple part replacement or a complex welding repair, we have the tools and experience to handle it.

Is it cheaper to repair or replace my gate opener?
In many cases, a repair is the most cost-effective solution, especially if your opener is a major brand like LiftMaster or DoorKing that still has parts available.

If we recommend a replacement, we will provide an upfront price for the new unit and installation. Call (833) 754-7503 for a free estimate.

What Our Customers Say
"Used them at two properties now. Both times they diagnosed it on the first visit instead of guessing and coming back."
- Rohan Shah"The gate works properly now and the price was fair. It did take two visits, because the operator we have is old and the part had to be ordered. They did not charge for the second trip."
- Carrie Mercer"A hydraulic arm was leaking fluid onto the driveway. Replaced, cleaned the stain as best he could, and it has been dry since."
- Erin Sutton
