Access Control Installation and Repair

Your gate is really an access system, and the electronics are what make it useful every day. Texas Gates designs, wires, installs, and programs access control for residential driveways, gated communities, apartments, and commercial properties across Spring, The Woodlands, and Houston. We’re certified CellGate installers and we handle every component ourselves — no electrician subcontracted, no call-the-manufacturer for programming.

What We Install

CellGate cloud access — Watchman and Omni units with video, smartphone entry, remote user management, entry logs, and no phone line required. Ideal for HOAs, storage, and any owner who wants to manage access from anywhere. LiftMaster myQ for smartphone control and notifications on LiftMaster residential operators.

Keypads and wireless remotes, wired and wireless, with multi-code programming for family, staff, and vendors. DoorKing 1802/1812 telephone entry for apartments and commercial; video intercoms for residential drives that want to screen visitors. Card readers, fobs, and RFID windshield tags for commercial lots and communities.

Safety and detection: in-ground loop detectors for free exit and reversing, photo eyes, edge sensors, timer-to-close. Camera tie-in at the entry, gate-open alerts, and Knox box fire-department access for gated communities and commercial sites.

Add to an Existing Gate or Install New

If your operator has the inputs — most do — we add keypads, remotes, myQ, or CellGate without replacing anything. If you’re installing a new gate, we design the access system into it from the start.

Repairs too: keypad dead, intercom silent, remote won’t pair, loop not detecting cars, CellGate offline. $89 gets a technician who knows these systems to your property, usually same day.

Local Knowledge

Master-planned communities across Spring and The Woodlands — Gleannloch Farms, Augusta Pines, Benders Landing — increasingly standardize on CellGate for gated sections. Storage and apartment properties along 249 and I-45 are still largely DoorKing telephone entry, which we service and, as landlines disappear, migrate to cellular. Summer storms are hard on entry electronics; we recommend surge protection on every panel.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q
What is CellGate and do I need it?
CellGate is cloud-based gate access: open the gate from your phone, see video of who’s there, manage users and codes remotely, and review entry logs. You need it if you want to control access from anywhere or manage more than a handful of users.
Q
Can I add smartphone control to my current gate?
Almost always. LiftMaster myQ for LiftMaster operators; CellGate for any brand. We wire and program it.
Q
Does CellGate need a phone line or internet at the gate?
No. It runs on cellular, which is why it works at driveways and yards with no wiring.
Q
Can you fix my DoorKing telephone entry now that the landline is gone?
Yes. We convert DoorKing systems to cellular or replace them with CellGate depending on the property.
Q
Do you install cameras at the gate?
Yes — entry cameras integrated with CellGate or your existing system.
