Gate Welding & Fabrication in Houston, TX
Sometimes a gate needs a welder, not just a wrench. We repair cracked frames, rusted-through sections, and bent leaves, and fabricate custom ornamental iron gates and panels for Houston homes and businesses.
Gates take structural damage that no adjustment can fix. A vehicle backs into a leaf, a hinge tears away from a post, a weld cracks from years of slamming, or storm wind twists the frame. We cut out the failed section, weld in new steel, and rebuild the joint so the gate is as strong as it was, or stronger, at the point that failed.
Rust is the slow killer of steel gates in Houston. Our humidity and coastal air attack the base of pickets, the bottom rail, and hinge areas where water sits, until the metal thins and the gate sags or the hinge gives way. We cut back to sound steel, weld in fresh material, and finish the repair so it stands up to the conditions that caused the damage in the first place.
On the fabrication side, we build and modify ornamental and driveway gates to fit your opening and your style. That includes custom widths for an odd driveway, matching new panels to an existing fence, adding decorative iron scrollwork, or reworking a gate so it can be automated. Fabricating to the actual opening beats forcing a stock gate to fit a Houston entrance that is rarely perfectly square.
Whether it is an emergency structural repair after an accident or a from-scratch custom gate, we will look at the job in person and give you an upfront price. Our welds are built to carry the load and the daily cycling an automatic gate puts them through.

Frequently asked questions
My gate was hit by a car, can it be repaired or do I need a new one?
It often can be repaired. We assess how far the damage runs, straighten or cut out the affected section, and weld in new steel. If the frame is beyond saving, we will tell you honestly and can fabricate a replacement to fit the same opening.
Can you fix a gate that is rusting through at the bottom?
Yes. Rust at the base of pickets and rails is common in Houston's humidity. We cut back to solid steel, weld in new material, and finish it so the repair holds up. Catching it early means we replace less metal.
Do you build custom gates to fit my driveway?
Yes. We fabricate ornamental and driveway gates to your opening and style, including odd widths and panels that match an existing fence. Building to your actual entrance gives a better fit than forcing a stock size onto a driveway that is not square.
Can you modify my gate so it can be automated?
Often, yes. Some gates need bracing, a hinge change, or a reinforced attachment point before an operator goes on. We can weld in what the automation needs and then install the operator, so one crew handles the whole job.
