Customer Reviews
Valued Clients
We had Texas Fence replace all of the fencing around our back yard in 2016. Great job. Just had them replace a few of the post that have rotted. Again very professional and great service. I particularly want to thank ‘Bullet’ and Les for their work.
Bullet and Les were fantastic to work with from start to finish. The price was great, and the communication throughout the entire process was excellent. The workmanship from the crew that installed the fence did an amazing job, it looks great! Highly recommend Texas Fence!

FAQs
Can access control be added to an existing gate?
Yes. We retrofit most swing and slide gates with keypad or remote access systems if power and space are available.
How secure are these systems?
We use commercial-grade systems with encrypted codes, time-based locks, and tracking. Access can be revoked or changed instantly.
What happens during a power outage?
Most systems can include solar backups, battery kits, or manual override keys to keep your gate usable in emergencies.
Can I control my gate with my phone?
Yes. We install systems that pair with apps so you can open or monitor the gate from anywhere.
Are access control systems expensive to maintain?
Once installed, they require minimal maintenance. Occasional battery replacement or system firmware updates keep them running reliably.
