Side-yard and back-yard gates wide enough to back an RV or boat trailer through.
Stock trailer and hay truck gates
Pasture and barn gates sized for the trailer and the turn, not just the truck.
Spans that do not sag
Heavier frames, bracing, bigger posts and hinges sized for the weight of a long leaf.

Why people call about this.
You keep scraping the posts
The opening is the width of the trailer with nothing left for the turn.
The RV lives in the yard
Behind a gate is safer and, in many neighborhoods, the only place the HOA allows it.
The long gate drags
A wide gate on light posts sags fast. It needs a heavier post and frame.
ENNIS, TX
RV & Wide Equipment Gates in Ennis: what’s different here.
Ennis is a railroad town of about 20,000 people (2020 census) in eastern Ellis County, 35 miles south of Dallas on I-45, founded by the Houston and Texas Central Railroad in 1871 and settled heavily by Czech and Slovak families. It is the Official Bluebonnet City of Texas and is growing, with new subdivisions on the edge of town and acre-plus homesites out in the county. The City of Ennis code FAQ says fences under 8 feet do not need a permit, but asks owners to call the Inspections Department (972-875-6442) first to confirm setbacks; HOA guidelines still apply in the newer subdivisions, and Texas811 locates are needed before any post holes.
Gates & Operators in Ennis
Out on Ennis acreage the drive gate usually sits at the road with the power up at the house, so it is often a wide double-swing or slide gate sized for a stock trailer or equipment and run by a solar operator, while gates in the newer subdivisions are closer to the house and simpler to wire.
The ground
Ennis sits on Blackland Prairie clay (the Kachina Prairie preserve in town protects a remnant of it), which swells in a wet spring and cracks open in August, so post depth and concrete matter more than the boards on top.
Homes and lots
Older frame houses on the streets around downtown, newer HOA subdivisions such as Prairie View, Stonewyck Farms and Christian Meadows, and acre-plus homesites off SH-34, US-287 and the county roads toward Lake Bardwell.
