We install new automatic gates that fit your driveway and your budget, we repair stuck or unreliable systems, and we upgrade access control so you can manage visitors and deliveries from your phone. We fabricate steel frames with wood or aluminum cladding, we tune openers for weight and duty cycle, we make safety devices behave, and we leave you with a clear maintenance plan so the system lasts.
Installation covers swing and sliding gates for homes, townhomes, multifamily entries, and light commercial sites. We plan for power runs, drainage, and slope so performance stays consistent in real weather.
Repair includes boards, motors, relays, chain and rack, broken hinges, bent tracks, misaligned rollers, stubborn limit switches, photo eyes that blink at the worst moment, and emergency callouts when the gate will not close.
Access control spans keypads, video intercoms, fobs and cards, license plate and vehicle sensors, MyQ and similar app platforms, with clear guidance on what is reliable in Bay Area conditions.

Local Expertise Across Silicon Valley
We are headquartered in San Jose, which means we can dispatch quickly throughout Santa Clara County. Our technicians know the neighborhood traffic patterns, which sounds trivial until you have a stuck gate at 7 a.m. We frequently serve Willow Glen, Almaden Valley, Cambrian, Evergreen, Berryessa, Rose Garden, Downtown San Jose, North San Jose, and West San Jose. We also cover nearby cities, Santa Clara, Campbell, Los Gatos, Cupertino, Sunnyvale, Mountain View, Palo Alto, Milpitas, Fremont, Newark, Hayward, Redwood City, and San Mateo.
A quick note on scheduling, if we can come the same day, we will say yes. If next day is more realistic, we will say that too. Simple expectations make for better outcomes. Add a small service area map here for clarity, then link to your city pages so customers can confirm local coverage in a single click.
Automatic Gate Installation, Residential and Commercial
A good installation starts with good planning. We measure the opening, check the slope, and look at wind exposure, then recommend swing or sliding based on what will actually work day to day. Frames can be steel or aluminum, with wood cladding or powder coat finishes that match fences and trim. Operators are chosen to match weight and duty cycle, not just brand. We place posts correctly, pour footings that hold, route power and low voltage cleanly, and set safety devices where they do their job. You get a clear plan, a timeline, and a written warranty.
If the gate is stuck open, you need security tonight, not next week. We triage by phone, bring common parts, and credit diagnostics toward the repair when you proceed. Typical issues include noisy or weak motors, gates that stop mid travel, sensors that flash without reason, chain that jumps, roller or track damage, and boards that fail after a storm. We test entrapment protection on every repair and we do not leave until the cycle is smooth. If replacement is smarter than repair, we will say so and show the cost difference.
Driveway gates are functional and also part of the look of your home. We design steel frames that stay true over time, add cedar, redwood, or composite cladding if you want warmth, and finish with powder coat that holds up to sun and fog. Sliding gates are efficient when space is tight, swing gates are graceful on flat approaches. We tidy welds, align lines with your fence, and pay attention to the little things that make a gate feel solid when it closes.
Openers are not one size fits all. A quiet residential street with a single leaf needs a different operator than a busy courtyard with deliveries all day. We work with LiftMaster, DoorKing, FAAC, Viking, Linear, All O Matic, Nice, HySecurity, and more. After we weigh the gate and consider wind load and cycles per day, we specify the model, add battery backup where appropriate, and pair it with reliable controls. Clean installation, correct programming, fewer callbacks.
From a simple keypad with unique codes to a video intercom that dials your phone, we set up access that fits your routine. App control for one time delivery codes, cards and fobs for staff or family, cellular and Wi Fi options for sites without easy wiring. We can integrate vehicle sensors and loops so the system feels seamless, and we document all codes and users so you can manage changes later without hunting for notes.
Annual or semiannual maintenance keeps gates quiet and predictable. We check chain tension, lubricate hinges, test photo eyes and edges, confirm entrapment protection, and verify proper signage. If your site needs a UL 325 update or a small code fix, we point it out with a simple estimate. Many breakdowns are avoidable, a bit of care now saves weekends later.

Transparent Costs and Efficient Schedules
For installations in San Jose, single swing systems commonly start in the mid five thousand range and can reach the low teens when you add premium finishes, heavier frames.
We charge a straightforward diagnostic visit, then credit that amount if you approve the work. Common repairs include replacing photo eyes that have gone out of alignment.
Emergency repairs are often same day or next day depending on crew load. Standard installations take one to three days on site once fabrication.
Our on-site inspections provide detailed, itemized quotes with no hidden fees, tailored to your project’s scope and budget.

Your Questions, Answered by Experts
Most residential systems land between the mid five thousands and the mid teens. Swing or sliding, material selection, opener tier, trenching, and access control drive the range. We confirm your exact price after a short site visit.
Often a board, a sensor, or a limit switch adjustment brings a system back. If the opener is undersized for the gate, or parts are discontinued, replacement is the smarter path. We will price both so you can compare.
It depends on height, posts, motor, and placement. San Jose and nearby cities vary. We can handle permit research and submittals, and we coordinate with HOAs on style and setbacks to avoid rework.
At least once a year, test photo eyes and edges, tighten hardware, lubricate hinges or chain, check limits, and verify entrapment protection. High cycle or dusty sites benefit from semiannual service.
Flat approaches with room to spare do well with swing. Tight or sloped driveways usually favor sliding. Wind, appearance, and snow are less of a factor here, wind still matters. We often recommend one, sometimes the other, occasionally we change our mind after measuring, that is honest.
Yes. In San Jose we often arrive the same day or next day. After hours depends on crew load. If we cannot make it immediately, we will give a clear time window so you can plan.
Yes. Keypads for simple access, video intercoms for visitor calls, cellular or Wi Fi for properties without easy wiring. One time delivery codes and activity logs are common requests.
Sometimes. Good sun exposure and moderate duty cycles are key. Shaded sites or frequent cycles are better on AC power. We will check exposure and usage before recommending anything.
We measure the opening and posts, check slope and drainage, confirm power routes, weigh the gate if needed, and choose safe locations for photo eyes and edges. You receive a written plan with parts, timeline, and pricing.
Yes. A simple plan that aligns posts, power, and finishes avoids gaps and do overs. We are happy to coordinate schedules so the project flows.
