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!

Installation Process
- Step 1: Gate Design & Visit
We measure gate opening, consider driveway slope or pedestrian use, and select wood species and style. - Step 2: Material Selection
You choose premium cedar, redwood, or treated hardwood. We use steel‑reinforced frames when needed to prevent sagging. - Step 3: Finish & Protection Choice
Options include stain, sealant, or clear water seal. All gates use Grade 1 hardware. - Step 4: Installation
Posts are set deep with concrete; gate panels are squared, hung level, and hardware aligned for smooth operation. - Step 5: Final Adjustments & Walkthrough
We test swing or slide, check latch function and alignment, and ensure overall appearance meets your expectations.

FAQs
How long will a wooden gate last?
With Grade 1 materials, good finish, and routine maintenance (stain/seal and hardware care), a wooden gate can last 15‑25 years or more.
Do wooden gates need regular maintenance?
Yes. Proper care—cleaning, sealing/staining, checking for cracks—is necessary to preserve longevity and appearance.
Can wooden gates be automated?
Yes. Wood gates can accommodate motors, remote systems, or solar openers. Steel reinforcements help ensure durability under motorized use.
How do you protect wood gates from rot or insects?
We use pressure‑treated woods or decay‑resistant species like cedar, sealants, and correct drainage or clearance to keep wood dry.
