Why Pecan Acres Homeowners Choose Ironworks Gate Co.
Most of our Pecan Acres customers have lived on their land for twenty years or more. They’ve already watched a generalist handyman take a guess at an opener and leave it half-fixed. What they want from us is simple: a crew that knows gate hardware, shows up when promised, and stands behind the work in writing. That’s the reason a good share of our business on the west side of Tarrant County comes from referrals between neighbors.
We serve every pocket of Pecan Acres, from the ranchettes along Ten Mile Bridge Road to the larger horse properties off Bonds Ranch Road and down toward Morris Dido Newark Road. When a windstorm or a stuck livestock gate has you pinned, we’ll have someone there the same day in most cases. Every job is covered by our 90-Day Done Right Promise. If it isn’t right, we come back and make it right. No forms, no phone tag, no arguing. Victor Salinas set that standard, and the 400th job gets the same attention as the first.

We service and replace swing, slide, and solar-powered gate operators from nine major brands, including LiftMaster, FAAC, and Linear.

Why Pecan Acres’s Climate & Housing Affect Gate Repair
Pecan Acres sits on the kind of black gumbo clay that moves more than people expect. A dry summer pulls moisture out of the soil and the ground contracts. A wet winter swells it right back. Gate posts set by the original property owners, often with concrete too shallow or sometimes none at all, get pushed out of plumb. That’s the reason swing gates in Pecan Acres start binding, dragging across the top of the drive, or refusing to latch when you least expect it. This isn’t a hinge problem. It’s a post problem. But it shows up first at the hinge, and if you only fix the hinge, you’ll be calling someone again in six months. We fix both, because around here that’s the only way a repair actually holds.
The other thing North Texas does is freeze. Ice storms put brittle stress on exposed hinge hardware and opener arms, especially on rural gates with no tree cover or structure to block the wind. A hard freeze can crack a gear or seize an actuator that was already tired from a long summer of running over misaligned train tracks. We see this every winter. When the temperature drops and your gate refuses to open, the issue is usually a combination of age, exposure, and that same clay shift working against the opener’s limits.
Pricing for Gate Repair in Pecan Acres
Gate repair pricing in Pecan Acres depends on what actually failed. Minor hinge and latch repairs typically run $165 to $285. Re-welding a broken gate frame or replacing a section of bent tubing generally falls between $220 and $395. A full post re-set, including digging out the old footing, re-plumbing the post, and pouring new concrete, runs $350 to $650 depending on depth and soil conditions. Opener replacement ranges from $425 for a basic arm-style operator to $1,200 and up for a heavy-duty slide or swing opener. Every price is quoted and agreed before we start work, so the bill matches the number you approved. We honor a $50 discount on any repair over $250, and we’ll give you a free second opinion on any written estimate you’ve received.

Call (254) 330-8718 and tell us what your gate is doing. We’ll give you a straight answer on cost before we schedule the visit.
In most cases we can get a technician to Pecan Acres the same day you call, especially for an emergency that leaves a driveway fully blocked or livestock unsecured. If we don’t have a tech nearby, we’ll tell you that honestly and get you on the schedule for the next available window.
Call (254) 330-8718 and we’ll tell you exactly when someone can be there.
Sometimes. If the post has shifted only slightly, we can often re-shim the hinges and adjust the latch to buy time. But on the black clay in Pecan Acres, a post that has visibly leaned usually needs to be dug out, re-plumbed, and re-set in concrete to hold. There’s no way to be sure without seeing it, which is why we diagnose before we quote.
Call (254) 330-8718 for a repair assessment. The estimate is free.
Yes. We work on solar and battery-powered gate openers, including BFT and Viking systems, which are common on Pecan Acres properties where running line power to the gate was never practical. We’ll check the panel, battery health, wiring, and the opener’s mechanical condition so the system actually keeps working through cloudy stretches.
Call (254) 330-8718 to schedule a solar opener diagnostic.
A full opener replacement includes removal of the old operator, installation of the new motor and arm, mounting hardware, setting and testing the open and close limits, and programming your existing remotes and keypad to the new system. We also inspect the gate’s hinges and post condition, because skipping that step is how you burn out a brand new motor in a year.
Call (254) 330-8718 for a written quote. $50 off any repair over $250, and a 5% senior and veteran discount, always.

What Pecan Acres Customers Say
"The photo eye was misaligned so the gate refused to close after dark. Ten minute fix. He also cleaned the lens and pointed out that a sprinkler head was spraying it every morning, which is why it kept happening."
- Jamal Dawson"Reprogrammed every clicker in the community and set up the keypad codes. Patient with a very long list of residents."
- Devon Ingram"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
