Gate problems in Everman rarely look like they do in newer suburbs. The homes here, many built between the 1950s and 1970s, sit on narrow lots with expansive clay soil that moves with every wet-dry cycle. That movement leans posts, knocks gate frames out of square, and seizes hinges that were installed when the house was new. We’re Latch & Post Gate Repair, a Cedarwell-family gate specialist, and we work on those older gates every week. Call (682) 841-5749 when a gate stops latching or dragging, and we’ll give you a written price before any work begins.
Why Everman Homes Are Different
Everman’s housing stock says a lot about what a gate repair actually involves here. Most properties are modest single-family homes with original chain-link or simple ornamental iron gates. The driveways are narrow, and setbacks are tight, which means a replacement panel usually has to be cut to fit rather than pulled off a shelf. Pre-hung standard units often don’t clear the fence line or the house corner on these lots.
The soil is the bigger story. Everman sits on expansive clay that swells after rain and shrinks in summer heat. Over thirty or forty years, that cycle walks concrete footing pads out of level. You can spot the original 1960s-era gates by their round-top pickets and the hairline cracks running through the pad at the base. When a post leans more than a few degrees, adjusting the hinges only buys a few months. The post itself needs to come out and be reset, often with a deeper pour and better drainage around the base.
Rust is the second constant here. Hot, humid summers and the occasional severe storm push corrosion deep into steel tubing and hinge pins. We treat rust as a repair, not a cosmetic afterthought: wire-brush the affected section, treat the surface, and replace hardware that’s too far gone. On gates with weld points, we check for fatigue cracks at the corners before they snap.
Styles & brands we work with
Our Main Everman Services
Most calls we take in Everman come down to one of three jobs: fixing a gate that won’t latch or swing, installing a new gate on an older fence line, and repairing the electric opener and safety edges on a motorized gate. Each has its own page with the full detail on what the job involves and what it costs.
Gate Repair in Everman
A gate that drags on the concrete or won’t catch the latch usually has more than one thing wrong. The hinge post has leaned from soil movement, the latch bar no longer lines up with the strike, and the hinges themselves have worn into an oval from years of use. On Everman’s older gates, we often find the bottom rail rusted through where it sat close to the ground. Repair means realigning the frame, replacing worn hardware, and treating the rust so the job holds. We stock common latch and hinge hardware for the brands Everman homes actually have, which gets most repairs done in one visit. See Gate Repair in Everman for the full breakdown.
Gate Installation in Everman
New gate work in Everman almost always starts with the existing posts. If the post footings are cracked or the posts lean past the point of salvage, the right move is a post reset or replacement before the new gate panel goes on. Because lots here are narrow, many installations are cut-to-size rather than pre-hung. We measure the opening, account for the slope of the driveway, and build the gate around what’s actually there. A written price covers the panel, hardware, concrete work, and cleanup before the saw ever comes off the truck. Details are on Gate Installation in Everman.
Electric Gate Repair in Everman
Electric gates in Everman sit close to sprinkler lines and downspouts, which creates its own set of problems. Moisture gets into the control board, ants build nests in the transformer housing, and the safety photo eyes drift out of alignment after a hard storm. We work on Viking, Ghost Controls, DoorKing, and Elite openers, and we carry the common replacement parts for those brands. Most electric repairs include a full sweep of the safety edges and photo eyes, because an opener that works but doesn’t stop for a child or a dog is not a finished repair.

Two things push gate pricing up in Everman. The first is a post with a cracked footing that has to be dug out, repoured, and given time to set before the gate rehangs. The second is rust damage that has eaten through the bottom rail, which often means welding in a new section instead of treating the surface. Whatever the number comes to, you’ll see it in writing before any work starts, and that same number is what you pay when the job is done. Nobody works off an open-ended hourly rate here.

FAQs About Gate Company in Everman
Because Everman is compact and we schedule locally, most repair visits land within the same day or next morning. When you call (682) 841-5749, a live person answers and gives you a straight time window. We don’t route through a call center or leave you waiting on a callback.
Most gate repairs and direct replacements don’t require a permit, but a new gate with electric wiring or a post that touches the property line can fall under local code requirements. We’ll check what applies to your specific job before work starts and tell you exactly what’s needed, so there’s no surprise from the city later.
That’s one of the most common calls we get in Everman. The clay soil moves under the footing, the post leans, and the gate starts dragging or missing the latch. We reset the post in a new pour, let it cure, and rehang the gate so it swings clean. Call for a free estimate and we’ll tell you if the post can be saved or needs full replacement.
If your gate is dragging, leaning, or stuck halfway open, call (682) 841-5749. We’ll answer, ask a few questions about what you’re seeing, and get a tech scheduled. Every job includes a written price before the work starts, shoe covers and drop cloths if we step inside, and a cleanup photo before we leave. No voicemail, no surprises, just a gate that works.

What Everman Customers Say
"Electric gate was sticking. He oiled and adjusted the track, wiped everything down after, and left no grease anywhere. Quiet, kind, and quick."
- Carlene Fuchs"Good repair on a sagging gate. Part for the older motor took a few days, so two trips, but they explained it and were tidy and polite each time. Gate works smoothly now."
- Carmen Ulloa"Gate motor died and they replaced it carefully, cleaning every bit of debris off the driveway. Mindful not to leave the yard open with our dog out. Great crew."
