About Gate Repair of Plano

Who We Are

Gate Repair of Plano works on automatic gates across Plano, Texas and Collin and Denton counties — residential driveway gates, HOA and community entries, and commercial access control. We’re a gate specialist, not a fence company that also does gates, and not a franchise call center routing your repair to whoever picks up. The difference shows the first time someone has to diagnose a DoorKing control board or a loop detector that has been under water.

Why Local Matters

Gate work is unusually local. A solar operator that runs happily on an open acreage lot out toward Wylie underperforms under the mature canopy on Richardson’s older streets. A west-facing operator enclosure in full afternoon sun in Frisco cooks a control board at a rate that never bothers the same unit sitting in shade a few miles away. Blackland Prairie clay moves posts across the whole area, but the fix depends on what the soil does on that street. A dispatcher three states away cannot know any of that; we do, because we work here year-round.

Trust & Safety

Every repair is quoted before work starts — no “we’ll see what we find” pricing. You approve the number, we do the work, and if a cheaper fix will hold we’ll say so instead of selling you a new operator. Automatic gates are also the heaviest moving equipment most properties own: a slide gate can weigh several hundred pounds and moves under power near vehicles and children. We test reversing sensors, photo eyes and entrapment protection on every visit, whether or not that’s what you called about.

What’s Covered

Parts we install carry the manufacturer’s warranty — the term varies by brand and by component, and operators, control boards and access-control hardware are often covered differently from one another. We put the actual coverage in writing on your quote, before you approve it, rather than quoting a number here that may not match the part your gate needs.

Parts Specified for North Texas

Summer here runs over 100°F for weeks at a time, DFW sits in one of the worst hail corridors in the country, and winter ice storms take the power out often enough to plan around. On top of that, Blackland Prairie clay swells and shrinks enough to walk a gate post out of plumb over a couple of seasons. Hardware chosen for a mild climate does not last through that. We spec galvanized and stainless fasteners, sealed enclosures for control boards kept out of the worst of the afternoon sun, and battery backup sized to actually get a gate open when the power is out — because that is the day you most need it to.
