We've completed over 1,127 projects across 14 years in business, each under a 2-year workmanship warranty, and the sizes run from a 42 inch walk gate to a 20 ft opening with a 10 ft tail.
From a crowned caliche drive to a restored scroll, our team handles every detail. Serving Georgetown and the nearby towns of Round Rock, Leander, Cedar Park and Lakeway, we leave one crew on your gate from the first measurement through to the last programmed remote.

Numbers first
Everett in Berry Creek had a crowned caliche drive that had already chewed up a previous floor track. We built a tube steel leaf on enclosed carriages for a 20 ft opening with 10 ft tail, a trackless design with a counterbalance tail set along the existing fence, so no hardware touches the ground now and grading the drive no longer means pulling the gate. It was an estimated $7,300 to $9,300 job that took an estimated 3 to 4 days.
Rusty on Andice Road acreage was a stock trailer owner who needed to pull off the county road before the gate began to move. We set a 16 ft single leaf set back 40 ft from the road in heavy steel tube and pipe, with solar power and a long-range remote, and the trailer now sits clear of traffic while the leaf opens. That job ran an estimated $3,300 to $4,600 across an estimated 1 to 2 days.
Gwen in Old Town had a historic home's iron gate and fence hidden under decades of flaking paint. We blasted it off site, patched the scroll joints with matching stock and sealed it with a zinc primer, which left 55 linear ft of original forged iron, restored. The scrollwork is visible again, no new iron had to be added, and the job was an estimated $1,850 to $2,650 over an estimated 1 to 3 days.
The Balcones Escarpment divides flat Blackland Prairie clay east of I-35 from hilly, thin-soil ground to the west, so the footing method changes with the side of town. Clay moves with moisture and wants a belled pier 36 inches or deeper, while thin soil over rock means the auger decides depth and rebar at each post. The estimated median owner-occupied home value is $429,100 (ACS 2024), and most of our Georgetown work is a gate on a lot with room to spare.
Sun City Texas is a 55+ community about 10 miles west of I-35 on Williams Drive (RM 2338), with its own association rules, so ask the association for approval before you order. Near the courthouse square, the historic district listed in 1977 may add review, so check with the city. Georgetown also lies in Williamson County, and we confirm the line on the plat before we draw.
Opening width, tail length and the operator move a Georgetown gate price more than anything else. Below are five jobs that come up often in Georgetown quotes, each shown as an estimated range.
| Job | Est. investment | Est. time on site |
|---|---|---|
| Trackless cantilever slide gate | Est. $6,300 to $9,700 | Est. 2 to 4 days |
| One-leaf automated swing gate | Est. $2,600 to $4,800 | Est. 1 to 2 days |
| Strip and recoat old iron | Est. $32 to $49 per linear ft | Est. 1 to 3 days |
| Operator added to a manual gate | Est. $1,850 to $3,600 | Est. 4 to 8 hours |
| Walk-through entry gate | Est. $700 to $1,400 | Est. 4 to 8 hours |
A trackless cantilever suits a crowned or graded drive because no floor track sits on the slab. Stripping and recoating old iron is estimated at $32 to $49 per linear ft over an estimated 1 to 3 days, and a pool barrier fence is estimated at $31 to $45 per linear ft. Treat every price here as an estimate, subject to change. The written quote sets the final price and the install schedule, shaped by the opening width, any posts already standing and the access gear you select.
Frames start as 11-gauge tube with 14-gauge infill, moved up a size when a leaf runs past 14 feet. Coating goes on in three steps, blast first, zinc primer second and polyester powder last, cured in the oven, and a touch-up kit stays on site for later scratches. For acreage, see our ranch entry gates and cantilever gates, and for an older home, our wrought iron gates and wrought iron fencing.
A floor track is the first failure on a crowned caliche drive, which is why Everett's cantilever has none. Grade is next: racked panels on gentle ground and stepped sections on steep lots, with rise-and-run hinges for a drive that climbs. Hinges are sealed ball-bearing units rated well past the finished leaf weight, with a greasable option on heavy pairs.
Safety closes the list: monitored photo eyes and edges wired for each entrapment zone, with the reverse tested at handover. Where the local fire marshal asks for a Knox key switch, siren sensor or strobe, it is added and confirmed before you sign the drawing.
Our estimator is based in Georgetown and walks each opening with a tape, a level and a photo of the drive. Our 2-year workmanship warranty covers weld integrity, post plumb, hinge alignment and gate sag, and operator makers warrant motors and control boards for 1 to 5 years depending on the model. Meet the team behind every gate.
Our crews work Round Rock, Leander, Cedar Park and Steiner Ranch every week from a 35 mile radius around the shop, including Round Rock, Cedar Park and Lakeway, plus Volente and The Hills on our service area page.
Georgetown owners often pair a new entry with solar gate operators, a gate operator installation or security fencing, and a gate service contract keeps the hardware serviced.
A cantilever takes an estimated 2 to 4 days on site, while a walk-through entry gate takes an estimated 4 to 8 hours.
Budget an estimated $6,300 to $9,700 for the trackless cantilever slide, with the final price set in the written quote once we have measured the opening and the tail.
Yes, we blast, patch scroll joints with matching stock and seal with a zinc primer, as we did for Gwen's Old Town gate.
The community has its own association rules, so ask the association for approval before you order.
The operator keeps a battery backup and a manual release, and a gate out of reach of a power run can be sized for solar.
Our 2-year workmanship warranty stays with the gate and covers weld integrity, post plumb, hinge alignment and gate sag.
