Gate repair in Manor, TX runs anywhere from $180 for a simple post re-set to $2,400 or more for a full operator replacement, with most common fixes landing between $250 and $650. Manor’s newer housing stock and its Blackland Prairie clay soils create a particular set of gate problems we see week after week, from leaning posts to misaligned latch bars. Call (254) 280-0629 and we’ll give you a written price before any work begins.
Why Manor Homes Are Different
Manor is growing fast, and a lot of the new construction sits on the eastern edge of the city where developers install ornamental gates as part of the streetscape package. Those gates look sharp on closing day, but they’re frequently under-spec’d for what the ground underneath does. The Blackland Prairie clay that runs through this part of Travis County swells hard after rain and shrinks just as hard in a dry August. A gate post set in a shallow concrete collar – which is what we find at many newer Manor properties – starts leaning outward within two or three years. The gate still swings, but the latch bar no longer lines up, the hinges bind, and eventually the operator motor starts laboring against a leaf that’s dragging on the ground.
Older homes in central Manor tell a different story. Houses from the 1960s through the 1980s tend to have chain-link or simple tube steel gates, and the issues there run toward rusted hinge pins, sagging weld joints, and posts that have simply worked loose after four decades of use. Either way, the climate is the common thread: hot summers make the metal expand, and February cold snaps make it contract. Over enough cycles, every bolted connection on a gate loosens. It’s not bad luck. It’s physics, and anyone who tells you otherwise hasn’t worked many gates in Manor.
Styles & brands we work with
Our Main Manor Services
The two calls we get most from Manor homeowners are a gate that won’t close properly and an electric gate that stopped responding. Here’s how each one works with us.
Gate Repair in Manor
Most Gate Repair in Manor calls start with a leaning post or a latch that stopped catching. We set the post in concrete with a proper depth for expansive clay, re-hang the leaf, and adjust the latch so it closes with one hand. If the post is too far gone, we replace it and match the existing steel. On welded gates, we reinforce the failing joint rather than just re-welding the same crack. Every repair gets a written Kingswell Guarantee, and if it fails within 365 days, we come back and fix it at no charge.
Gate Installation in Manor
New Gate Installation in Manor work means measured, ordered, and scheduled – we come out free, take measurements, and hand you a written price before anything is ordered. For Manor’s clay soils, that means sizing the post footings correctly from the start, not using whatever depth the developer’s crew used down the street. We build ornamental steel, wooden privacy gates, and driveway gates with operator-ready framing. The Kingswell Guarantee applies to new installs too: written price, real arrival window, clean job site, written guarantee.
Electric Gate Repair in Manor
When an Electric Gate Repair in Manor job comes in, the tech checks the operator brand before the truck leaves, because nine out of ten calls are a power or limit-switch issue, not a dead motor. We service LiftMaster, FAAC, BFT, Linear, Viking, Ghost Controls, DoorKing, Elite, and Mighty Mule systems, and we stock common boards and arms locally. If your gate opens but won’t close, or closes but won’t open, or beeps and does nothing, we can usually get it sorted in one visit. Under the 365-Day Done Right Promise, if the repair fails within a year, the return visit is free.

What moves a Manor price up is usually the post condition. If the concrete footing was undersized to begin with and the clay has worked it loose, the repair involves digging out the old base and pouring a new one at the correct depth – that’s labor and concrete, not just time. You’ll always see the full price in writing before we turn a single bolt.

Yes. Many Manor malfunction calls turn out to be a structural problem – a leaning post or dragging leaf – that’s putting strain on a perfectly good operator. Our techs diagnose both the gate and the operator in the same visit, quote one written price, and fix the whole system that day in most cases.

What Manor Customers Say
"Electric gate kept doing its own thing, opening at random. The tech found a shorted sensor and a worn board, fixed both, and showed me the old parts. Price was what he quoted on the phone."
- Cassandra Pike"Hinge sheared off our heavy iron gate. They welded a new one on and it's sturdier than before. Showed up on time and cleaned the driveway after the welding."
- Rhonda Mikula"Our driveway gate stopped halfway and wouldn't close, which is a problem when it's the only thing between the street and the yard. They came out same day, replaced the motor, and it's smooth again."
- Leonard Pace
