Why people call about this.
The entrance looks unfinished
Columns frame the gate and make the drive look intended.
A column is leaning
The footing was too shallow for the clay or the gate is too heavy for it.

WAXAHACHIE, TX
Gate Columns & Stone Pillars in Waxahachie: what’s different here.
Waxahachie is the Ellis County seat and one of the fastest-growing towns on the south edge of the Dallas–Fort Worth area, up from about 41,000 people at the 2020 census to an estimated 50,000 in 2025. It is known for its blocks of Victorian and gingerbread-style houses around the Ellis County Courthouse, with master-planned subdivisions filling in around the older town and acreage beyond them. The City of Waxahachie requires a fence permit (it publishes a Fence Permit Submittal Guide and takes applications through its online portal), most new subdivisions add HOA approval on top, and many households commute north on I-35E, which shapes when crews can get into a yard.
Gates & Operators in Waxahachie
Subdivision gate work in Waxahachie is mostly a side-yard drive gate wide enough to back a trailer or boat through, while acreage off US-287 and US-77 calls for a full entrance with a solar operator out at the road and remotes for households that leave early on I-35E.
The ground
Waxahachie is on Blackland Prairie clay that swells when wet and shrinks and cracks in summer, which is why builder fences set on shallow posts start leaning within a few seasons.
Homes and lots
Historic Victorian and Queen Anne homes in the West End and around the courthouse square, newer HOA communities such as North Grove, Saddlebrook Estates and Sunrise at Garden Valley, and few-acre properties off US-287, US-77 and the county roads.
