SCOPE
What this service covers.
Only the work we actually do — no padded list. If you are not sure whether your job fits, send a photo and we will tell you straight.
Vegetable garden gates
Gates into a fenced garden built tight at the bottom and tall enough to matter against deer.
Courtyard and entry gates
Arched or flat-top gates into a courtyard or front garden, in iron or cedar.
Cedar in a steel frame
Wood face with a welded steel frame inside, so it looks like cedar and does not sag like it.
Matched to the fence
Built to the same picket, rail or panel as the fence it sits in.

Why people call about this.
Something keeps getting in
Deer, rabbits and dogs find the gap under a gate first.
The yard has no real entrance
A good gate turns a gap in the fence into the front of the garden.
The old wood gate has warped
Wood gates twist in the heat. A steel frame behind the boards stops it.
MIDLOTHIAN, TX
Garden & Yard Gates in Midlothian: what’s different here.
Midlothian is a fast-growing city in northwest Ellis County, about 25 miles southwest of Dallas where US-67 meets US-287, up from 35,125 people at the 2020 census to an estimated 41,000 in 2023. It is the center of the North Texas cement industry, with three cement plants and a steel mill, and new master-planned subdivisions have spread across the prairie around the older downtown, with Joe Pool Lake to the northwest. The City of Midlothian requires a fence permit with a site plan showing property lines, easements, right-of-way and existing buildings (Building Inspections, 215 N. 8th Street, 972-775-7161), master-planned subdivisions typically add HOA guidelines, and Texas811 locates come before any digging.
Gates & Operators in Midlothian
Midlothian drive gates are mostly side-yard gates on subdivision lots that need HOA approval and enough width for a trailer, plus entrances on larger lots at the edge of town, and gate posts set in shallow rock have to be socketed into it rather than sat on top so a heavy gate stays plumb.
The ground
The Austin Chalk escarpment runs north to south through Midlothian, so depending on the side of town a post hole can hit shallow limestone within a couple of feet or go down through heavy clay, and rock often has to be augered or broken to reach full depth.
Homes and lots
Mostly newer single-family subdivisions such as Lawson Farms, Villages of Walnut Grove, Massey Meadows and Hawkins Meadow, a smaller stock of older homes near downtown, and larger lots and acreage on the edges of town.
