Custom swing, slide & cantilever gates · Operators & access control · $89 service call
Cypress has grown into one of northwest Houston's most popular areas, with master-planned communities like Bridgeland, Towne Lake, and Coles Crossing alongside established acreage off Telge and Fry. Texas Gates installs driveway gates across all of it — from family swing gates to long slide gates on larger lots.
We fabricate and weld gates to your opening in ornamental iron, steel, aluminum, or wood, automate them with the right operator, and set up the keypads, remotes, and smart access that make a gate genuinely convenient. Licensed, insured, $89 service call, 30-minute callback.
We install the full range of driveway gates in Cypress: single and dual swing gates, slide gates, and cantilever slide gates for wider openings. The right choice depends on your driveway slope, the room alongside the opening, and how you use the entrance.
Material is the other big decision. Ornamental wrought iron and steel give you a classic, secure custom look and take automation well; aluminum is lighter and rust-free for long-lasting low maintenance; and wood or wood-clad gates suit a warmer, natural entrance. We fabricate and weld to your exact opening instead of forcing a stock size.
Cypress's mix of community homes and acreage means we install everything from residential LiftMaster systems to heavier Viking operators for long slide gates on larger Cypress lots.
The operator is the heart of any automatic driveway gate, and in Cypress we match LiftMaster, Viking, and Apollo motors to your exact gate: its weight, its span, and how often it will cycle. A long slide gate on a busy drive needs a commercial-duty operator; a single residential swing gate does not. Getting that sizing right is what separates a gate that lasts fifteen years from one that burns out in three.
We build on hardware that holds up — forged hinges, reinforced pivot posts, and footings poured to depth so nothing shifts as the soil moves. For existing gates we offer gate motor repair, hinge replacement, and operator upgrades, diagnosing the real fault first so you only pay to fix what is actually broken.
What turns a gate from a barrier into a genuinely useful entrance is the access control around it. For Cypress homeowners we set up wireless remotes and keypads for daily use and add smartphone access via LiftMaster myQ or CellGate's cloud platform — handy for granting one-time entry to a delivery or a service tech without handing out a code.
Safety and automation come from the detection layer: free-exit and safety loop detectors buried in the driveway, photo eyes, and reversing edges so the gate never closes on a car or a person. Where there are multiple residents or a manned entry, we add DoorKing telephone entry and intercoms. Every loop, remote, keypad, and sensor is programmed and tested on site.
Cypress sits in a flat, flood-aware part of Harris County near the Cypress Creek watershed, so we plan footing depth, conduit sealing, and operator elevation to keep gate electronics dry. On the larger acreage lots toward the north and west, longer driveways often make an automated slide or cantilever gate the better choice over a swing.
We install driveway gates throughout Cypress's communities and acreage. For gate repair and service across the area, see our Cypress gate repair page.
