Automatic Gates, Gate Installation and Repair in Austin, TX
A gate is the part of your fence that moves, which makes it the part most likely to need attention. Perimeter Fence – TX designs, fabricates, installs, and repairs gates across Austin: walk gates, driveway gates, automatic gates, and full access control systems for residential and commercial properties.
Automatic Gates in Austin
Automatic gates in Austin give you security and convenience at the entrance to your property. We install swing and slide operators sized correctly for the weight, width, and duty cycle of the gate, because an undersized operator is the leading cause of premature gate failure. Every automated installation includes safety devices required by UL 325 and ASTM F2200, including photo eyes and reversing sensors.
- Single and dual swing operators
- Slide and rolling cantilever operators
- Solar-powered systems for entries without nearby electrical service
- Battery backup so gates still function during outages
- Keypads, card readers, telephone entry, and smartphone control
- Vehicle loop detectors and free-exit sensors
- Emergency and fire department access devices
Austin Custom Gates
We fabricate custom gates in our own shop to match your fence, your home, and your access needs. Iron gates in Austin, Texas are our most requested style, from simple square-picket driveway gates to ornate wrought iron gates with scrollwork, custom monograms, or laser-cut panels. We also build cedar, steel-framed wood, and mixed-material gates.
Gate Installation in Austin
Correct gate installation starts with the posts. Gate posts carry a cantilevered load every time the gate swings, and they need deeper, wider footings than line posts. We size gate posts and footings for the actual gate weight, set them plumb, and hang gates with hardware rated well above the load so they do not drop out of square in the first year.
Gate Repair in Austin
We repair gates and operators regardless of who installed them: sagging and dragging gates, broken welds, failed hinges and rollers, bent frames, operators that will not cycle, damaged control boards, worn chains and belts, and access control that has stopped communicating. We also handle vehicle impact damage and can fabricate replacement sections to match existing work.
Access Control in Austin, TX
For commercial and multifamily properties we install and service complete access control: telephone entry directories, proximity and card readers, keypads with individual user codes, cloud-managed systems with remote credential control, and integration with existing property management platforms. See our commercial fencing page for related security work.
