Gate Repair Houston TX
Gate dragging on the driveway. Gate stuck open. Gate that won't close after a storm. These are the calls we get every day across Houston. Rampart Welding Fence & Access has been fixing gates in Houston and Fort Bend County since 1990 — structural repair, mechanical repair, opener repair, and access control.
We check the gate structure before the opener. Most gate failures start at the hinges, posts, or track — not the operator. Fixing the opener on a broken gate means the new opener fails under the same load.

We Fix the Gate. Not Just the Opener.
Most gate companies replace the opener and leave. If the gate is dragging, sagging, or misaligned, the new opener fights the same resistance as the old one — and burns out the same way.
We have been welding gates since 1990. Structural repair is a core part of what we do — not an afterthought. We check hinge condition, frame alignment, and travel path before touching the operator. That is why our repairs last.
- Gate structure checked on every service call
- Welding capability on the truck
- Opener diagnosed after structural is confirmed
- Full system test before leaving site
- Father and son — same people every time
Gate Repair Houston TX — Common Questions
How much does gate repair cost in Houston?
Most residential gate repairs run $150–$450 depending on what failed. A hinge replacement is less than a control board replacement. We diagnose first and give you a straight price before starting any work. No surprise charges.
My gate is stuck open right now. How fast can you respond?
Call (713) 816-5880 immediately — do not text for a gate stuck open. Same-day response available across Houston and Fort Bend County. We carry common parts on the truck and close most stuck-open calls in a single visit.
My gate drags on the driveway. Is it the opener or the hinge?
Almost always the hinge first. The upper hinge pin wears and the gate tilts forward — the bottom rail drags as the tilt gets worse. The opener is fighting this resistance on every cycle. We fix the hinge before diagnosing the opener.
My gate won't close after a storm. What happened?
Houston storms cause three specific failures: power surges that kill control boards, battery drain from extended outages, and wiring damage from water intrusion. We diagnose which one on-site. The gate structure is usually fine after a storm — it is the electrical side that fails.
Do you repair both swing gates and slide gates?
Yes. Swing gates, slide gates, cantilever gates, barrier arms, and pedestrian gates. Residential and commercial. All major opener brands. Call (713) 816-5880 for same-day service.
