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!

Driveway gate installation process
- Property evaluation and measurement
We assess driveway slope, space, vehicle flow, and fencing. Then we recommend gate types that match your layout and traffic patterns. - Design selection and build materials
Choose from iron, aluminum, wood, or mixed materials. All framing and hardware is Grade 1 quality, designed to resist sagging, rust, and mechanical failure. - Permit and power planning
We help with required permits and determine where to run low-voltage power and conduit lines if you select an automatic gate. - Fabrication and setup
Our team welds, assembles, and finishes the gate, builds support posts, mounts hinges or rollers, and preps the opening for alignment. - Installation and automation hookup
We install the gate, connect automation, test for safe operation, and review all access options with you before signoff.
