Gates & Entries Questions
What Stephenville property owners ask before starting a gates & entries project.
Can you automate an existing ranch gate?
Often yes, if posts and hinges are stout enough for the opener load. We inspect swing clearance, gate weight, and power options on site. Solar kits work well when running electric line is expensive.
How reliable are solar gate openers in Texas heat?
Modern solar operators are built for ranch use with battery backup and proper panel sizing. We size the kit for your gate weight and daily cycles so you are not resetting the opener every weekend.
Do you build stone pillars or work with my mason?
We install gates on existing columns and coordinate with masons when stone work is part of the project. Share your column dimensions and cap style at the estimate so hinges and latch hardware land in the right place.
What maintenance does an automatic gate need?
Keep hinges greased, clear debris from the slide path, and test safety sensors monthly. We walk you through care at install and can service openers if something drifts out of adjustment after seasons change.
How wide should a ranch entry gate be?
Most ranch drives use 16–20 foot openings for equipment, but your hay equipment and trailer width dictate the span. We also build custom gates for irregular or non-standard openings — odd widths, uneven posts, or approaches that are not a clean rectangle. We measure your opening on site and fabricate a gate that fits, so you are not stuck forcing a stock size into a space that will not take it.
