WOOD & CEDAR GATES · WAXAHACHIE
Wood & Cedar Gates in Waxahachie, TX
Cedar and wood gates — drive gates and walk gates — framed in steel so they stay square, and faced to match the privacy fence. We work across Waxahachie — North Grove, Saddlebrook Estates, Sunrise at Garden Valley and the surrounding area.
SCOPE

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.
Cedar on a steel frame
Welded steel frame with cedar boards fastened to it, so the gate holds its shape.

Arched double drive gates, straight-top walk gates, or a cap and trim to match the fence.
Iron and cedar together
Steel accents, a cut-steel design or an iron top band over cedar infill.

Why people call about this.
The wood gate drags
A sagging wood gate is the most common gate complaint there is. A steel frame stops it coming back.
The fence is cedar
A cedar gate in a cedar fence keeps the line looking like one piece.
You want warmth, not metal
Cedar reads softer on a house than a steel gate does.
WAXAHACHIE, TX
Wood & Cedar Gates 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.
