AfterGate Repair in Kennedale, TX
Gate access control in Kennedale usually comes down to one of two problems: a keypad that no longer reads codes after a North Texas summer cooked its board, or an intercom that works fine until the clay soil heaves and pulls a ground wire loose. We install and repair keypads, remote receivers, phone entry, card readers, and video intercoms on gates across Kennedale, and the written quote you get before any tool comes out is the same price you pay at the end. Call (817) 476-9945 and a live person answers, day or night.
Why Kennedale Homes Are Different
Kennedale sits on Blackland Prairie clay, the same expansive “black gumbo” that runs through most of DFW, and it moves. In wet springs the soil swells and pushes gate posts upward. By August, after weeks above 100°F, that same ground shrinks and cracks, and a post that was plumb in May leans two inches out of vertical. For automatic gates, that means photo-eyes lose alignment, openers bind, and limit switches drift. For manual gates, a leaning post turns into a gate that drags across the driveway or will not latch.
The housing stock makes its own demands. Kennedale is largely larger-lot single-family homes built from the 1980s through the 2010s, many on half-acre-plus parcels with private driveway gates. Older homesteads on the city’s rural edges still have pipe-and-rail ranch gates with worn hinge welds and rusted drop rods. And unlike most cities this close to Fort Worth and Arlington, Kennedale’s zoning permits horses and livestock on qualifying residential lots, so we service a genuine mix of heavy agricultural pipe gates, wide trailer-access swing gates, and ornamental iron driveway gates. A 14-foot pipe gate bent at the ground hinge by a horse is a routine call here.
Our Main Kennedale Services
The two calls we take most often in Kennedale are gate access control repairs and gate parts or welding jobs, though we also handle full repairs, installations, and motor service on every gate style in the area.
Gate Repair in Kennedale
Gate repair in Kennedale covers everything from a sagging hinge to a gate that will not open at all. When a post heaves on clay soil, the gate binds at the latch, and when the heat gets into an older keypad or motor board, the failure often shows up on the hottest afternoon of the year. We repair the gate where it stands, document what we found with photos, and leave you the written record. Gate Repair in Kennedale
Gate Installation in Kennedale
Gate installation on a Kennedale property means sizing the post depth for expansive clay, not just for the gate’s weight. Wider trailer-access openings and horse-property clearances change the spec. We quote the full job in writing before work starts: posts, gate, hardware, operator, and any power run. Gate Installation in Kennedale
Gate Motor & Opener in Kennedale
Gate motor and opener failures in Kennedale are often heat-related: circuit boards and battery backups degrade faster when the temperature sits above 100°F for weeks. We service nine major automation brands, so we can work on the motor that is already on your gate rather than steering you toward a replacement. Gate Motor & Opener in Kennedale

BeforeAfterGate Access Control in Kennedale
Gate access control in Kennedale is the equipment that decides who gets through: keypads, remote receivers, phone entry, card readers, and video intercoms. On Kennedale’s 1980s and 1990s homes, the original keypad or intercom is often decades old, and the first 100°F week of summer is usually what finishes off a circuit board that has been marginal for years. We install and repair every part of that system, and we service it the same way we document commercial access-control work: a written price first, then a photo record of what we found and what we changed. Gate Access Control
Keypad Entry
Signs you need it
Keypad buttons stick, codes take three or four tries, or the keypad stops responding entirely after a hot afternoon.
What it costs in Kennedale
Replacing or repairing a gate keypad in Kennedale typically runs $180 to $340, depending on the brand and whether the wiring at the post is still intact.
How we do it
We test the keypad, identify whether the failure is in the keypad, the wiring, or the opener’s receiver board, then install and program the replacement or repair the existing unit on site.
Remote Control
Signs you need it
Your remote works only when you are within ten feet of the gate, or only when the gate is cool and the electronics have not been baking all day.
What it costs in Kennedale
Most remote receiver repairs and replacements run $180 to $340, and adding or programming additional remotes falls within that same range in Kennedale.
How we do it
We test the remote and receiver, rule out interference or a failed learning receiver, then program the new or existing remote and verify it from across the street.
What Gate Access Control Costs in Kennedale
| Item | Typical range in Kennedale |
|---|---|
| Keypad entry repair or replacement | $180-$340 |
| Remote control receiver repair | $180-$340 |
| Video intercom repair or replacement | $600-$900 |
Can you come out the same day to fix my gate keypad in Kennedale?
Yes. We keep common keypad and receiver parts on hand and dispatch Kennedale calls throughout the day. Call (817) 476-9945 and tell us what your keypad is doing, and we will give you an arrival window and a written price before any work starts.
Do you work on the intercom system already installed at my Kennedale house?
We do. We repair and replace existing intercoms and phone-entry units rather than forcing a full system swap. We will quote the repair in writing after diagnosing the unit, no charge for the estimate.
Gate Parts & Welding in Kennedale
Gate parts and welding in Kennedale is where the city’s livestock-friendly zoning shows up most clearly. Pipe-and-rail ranch gates on horse properties take a beating that ornamental driveway gates never see: hinge welds crack, ground-side hinges get bent outward by trailer fenders, and posts heave out of plumb by an inch or two every few summers. We replace those parts and weld those joints in place, and we document every part number and every weld before we leave. Gate Parts & Welding
Hinge Replacement
Signs you need it
The gate sags at the latch side, scrapes the driveway, or the hinge pin has been bent outward far enough to see with the gate closed.
What it costs in Kennedale
Hinge replacement on a Kennedale gate typically runs $250 to $450, depending on whether the weld is still sound and whether the post itself has moved.
How we do it
We have the hardware spec before we arrive, remove the old hinge, weld the new one in place, and photograph the new position before re-hanging the gate.
Post Replacement
Signs you need it
The post leans, the gate will not latch, or you can see a two-inch gap between the post and the concrete collar that was poured around it.
What it costs in Kennedale
Post replacement in Kennedale runs $500 to $1,000, plus the cost of the post itself, depending on how deep the original was set and what the clay soil has done.
How we do it
We set the new post below the clay’s active movement zone, brace it true while the footing cures, then re-hang the gate and photograph the final alignment.
What Gate Parts & Welding Costs in Kennedale
| Item | Typical range in Kennedale |
|---|---|
| Hinge replacement | $250-$450 |
| Post replacement | $500-$1,000 |
| Custom welding repair | $150-$600 |
Do you do on-site welding at my Kennedale gate, or does it have to go to a shop?
We weld on site. Most hinge replacements, rail repairs, and pipe-gate fixes are done right in the driveway. We bring mobile welding equipment and finish most single-hinge jobs the same visit. Call (817) 476-9945 for a written quote.
How much does it cost to fix a sagging gate in Kennedale?
Most sagging gates are fixed for $250 to $450 with a hinge replacement. If the post is the problem, budget $500 to $1,000. We quote the exact figure in writing before any work begins.

What pushes a Kennedale gate repair price up is usually the post: clay soil movement means a post that has heaved or leaned enough to need resetting takes longer than the same repair on stable ground.
