Gate installation in Coral Gables means working with Mediterranean Revival architecture, original wrought iron, and a city that reviews exterior changes carefully. We install automatic gate systems, electric operators, and driveway gates that match the home rather than fight it. From a sagging courtyard gate on a 1920s villa to a new sliding driveway gate near the Granada entrance, we handle the mechanical structure and the electronics in one call. Reach us at (855) 382-0732 for a free estimate.
Why Coral Gables Homes Are Different
Coral Gables is a master-planned Mediterranean Revival city, and that changes how gate work gets done. Driveway gates, courtyard entries, and estate gates are often original architectural features, not afterthoughts. Many date to the 1920s through 1940s, built from wrought iron or cypress, and they fall under Board of Architects review. Replacing or altering a gate visible from the street can require city approval before work begins, so we factor that into every estimate.
The climate adds another layer. Subtropical salt-laden air accelerates rust and corrosion on iron gates. Hurricane-season wind loads stress hinges, motors, and anchoring. We see salt pitting on gate frames within a few hundred yards of the coast, and we spec fasteners and finishes that hold up to humidity and storm-driven rain. Gates along tree-lined streets like those near the Granada entrance sit under mature live oak canopies, so we routinely clear leaf debris and organic matter from tracks and hinges after summer storms. Coral Gables gates need a technician who understands old iron, Board of Architects rules, and salt air, all at once.
Styles & brands we work with
Our Main Coral Gables Services
Most Coral Gables homeowners call us for one of two reasons: a gate that has stopped working, or an electric system that has failed. Here is what each one involves.
Gate Repair in Coral Gables
Gate repair in Coral Gables often means matching or fabricating parts for custom ironwork original to the house. A bent hinge on a 1930s courtyard gate is not a hardware-store fix. We assess the steel, the welds, and the anchoring, then repair or fabricate what is needed. Salt corrosion and storm-stressed hinges are the two most common failures we see across Coral Gables. For the full scope of mechanical gate repair, see our Gate Repair in Coral Gables page.
Electric Gate Repair in Coral Gables
Electric gate repair in Coral Gables starts with control boards, motors, loop detectors, and access systems. Humidity and salt spray shorten the life of exposed electronics. We diagnose the system, not just the symptom, on brands including LiftMaster, FAAC, BFT, Linear, Viking, Ghost Controls, DoorKing, Elite, and Mighty Mule. If your operator runs slow or refuses to respond, see our Electric Gate Repair in Coral Gables page.

Gate Installation in Coral Gables
Coral Gables gate installation has to respect the house. Many homes are 1920s to 1940s Mediterranean Revival villas with original wrought-iron gates, and the Board of Architects reviews exterior changes visible from the street. That means we match historic ironwork or cypress designs rather than bolting on something off the shelf, and we help you understand what needs city approval before work starts. We install both the mechanical gate structure and the electric automation system, so one crew handles the whole job. For details on the full installation process, see our Gate Installation service hub.
Automatic Gate Installation
Signs you need it
You want a gate that opens and closes on its own, with a remote, keypad, or vehicle sensor, instead of getting out of the car every time.
What it costs in Coral Gables
Automatic gate installation in Coral Gables typically runs $3,900 to $9,800 depending on gate size, operator brand, and site conditions.
How we do it
We assess the gate opening and structural posts, specify a brand-matched operator from our nine manufacturer lines, install the motor and control board, and wire the access system with proper weather protection for salt air.
Driveway Gate Installation
Signs you need it
Your driveway gate is too damaged to repair, or you want a new gate that matches the era and materials of your Coral Gables home.
What it costs in Coral Gables
Driveway gate installation in Coral Gables typically runs $3,900 to $9,800, with custom ironwork pushing toward the higher end.
How we do it
We measure the opening, fabricate or source a gate that matches your home’s architecture, set posts and hinges to storm-rated spec, and install the operator and safety edges.

Does Coral Gables require a permit for a new automatic gate?

What Coral Gables Customers Say
"Photo eye was misaligned so the gate refused to close after dark. Ten minute fix. He also cleaned the lens and pointed out that the sprinkler head was spraying it every morning, which is why it kept happening."
— Maria Martinez"Hinge post had rotted at the base and the whole swing gate was sagging into the concrete. He rebuilt the post rather than talking us into a whole new gate, which two other companies had pushed for."
— Brooke Parker"Reprogrammed every clicker in the HOA and set up the keypad codes. Patient with a very long list of residents."
