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.
Square tube frames
Tube sized to the span, with a brace on long leaves so the latch end does not drop.
Bar, picket or sheet infill
Vertical or horizontal flat bar, plain pickets, or solid steel sheet where you want it closed.
Wide openings
Double leaves for 16-foot and wider drives where trailers and equipment have to turn in.
Ready for an operator
Mounting points and a stiff frame built in so an opener can go on now or later.

Why people call about this.
The drive is wide
A light gate across a wide opening sags within a year. Steel tube sized to the span does not.
It takes a beating
Shops, yards and working drives need a gate that survives being bumped by a trailer.
You want it simple
Clean steel lines suit a modern house or a metal building better than ornate iron.
MIDLOTHIAN, TX
Steel Driveway 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.
