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.
Overhead archways
Pipe or square-tube columns with a straight or arched crossbeam over the drive.
Cut-steel names and brands
Ranch name, family name or brand cut from plate and welded into the arch.
Clearance for what comes through
Crossbeam height set for stock trailers, hay trucks and equipment, not just the pickup.
Wing fence to the line
Short runs of pipe or rail off each column so the entrance ties into the fence line.

Why people call about this.
The place has no front door
A gate on a bare fence line works, but an entrance tells people they have arrived.
The old arch is leaning
A leaning column is a footing problem, and a tall structure only gets worse in the wind.
Trailers keep hitting it
An arch built too low gets clipped. We set the height for what actually uses the drive.
WAXAHACHIE, TX
Ranch Entrances & Archways 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.
