Commercial access control is not a keypad with one code everyone knows. It is a system where every employee, tenant, and vendor has their own credential, every entry is logged, and a fired employee's fob stops working before he reaches the parking lot.
Texas Gates designs and installs commercial access control across greater Houston for warehouses, storage facilities, contractor and truck yards, office parks, car lots, and industrial properties. We handle the gate operator, the readers, the controller, the cameras, and the network, so one contractor is responsible for the whole entry.

- ✓Camera coverage on every gate, lane, and pedestrian door
- ✓Exit loops, safety photo-eyes, and vehicle detection
- ✓Maintenance contracts with quarterly inspections
Storage facilities and contractor yards
These properties live and die by the gate. Tenants need 24-hour access, management needs to lock out non-payers, and nobody wants to drive out at 2 a.m. because the gate is stuck open. We size operators for the cycle count, add battery and solar backup where power is unreliable, and set up remote lockout so a delinquent unit's code stops working from the office.
Warehouses and industrial
Truck gates need long-range readers so drivers do not lean out of the cab, loop detectors sized for trailers, and cameras that capture plates on entry and exit. We coordinate with your IT team on network drops and VLANs so the access system does not sit on the guest Wi-Fi.
Office parks and multi-tenant
Tenant fobs, a visitor directory, schedules that open the gate during business hours and lock it after, and an audit trail for the building owner. We program the system so property management adds and removes tenants without a service call.
Brands we install and service
CellGate (Watchman, OmniPoint, Entria, CG Readers), LiftMaster and myQ, DoorKing telephone entry and access controllers, Viking Access, and Apollo Gate operators. We repair most other brands including Elite, Linear, and Nice.

Frequently asked questions
Can employees have individual credentials?+
Yes. Each person gets a fob, card, PIN, or phone credential that can be revoked individually and logged.
Can we lock out a tenant remotely?+
Yes. Cloud-managed controllers let you disable a credential from a browser or phone instantly.
Do you handle the network and cameras too?+
Yes. We run conduit, PoE, and network drops and install the cameras so the entry system is one project, not three.
What about power outages?+
We install battery backup on every commercial operator and solar where grid power is unreliable, with fail-safe or fail-secure configured to your needs.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?+
Yes. Quarterly and annual plans cover operators, readers, entry systems, and safety devices.
