Gate installation in Davie usually means one of two things: a new automatic driveway gate on a 1970s ranch lot, or a heavy ranch gate across a gravel drive serving horses and trailers. The soil here is sandy, the humidity chews through exposed metal, and posts set decades ago lean after a wet summer. We quote the full job before any work starts, and we work on the brand already on your property. Call (855) 360-5306 for a free estimate on gate installation in Davie.
Why Davie Homes Are Different
Davie is not a typical South Florida suburb. Large-lot acreage, equestrian zoning, and canal-front properties mean gates here are wider, heavier, and mounted on posts that sit in sandy, high-water-table soil. A standard residential swing opener off the shelf is often undersized for a 16-foot tube-steel gate with a horse paddock behind it. We see operators working twice as hard as they should because the gate leaf was never balanced for its length.
The climate works against gate hardware all year. Intense summer sun bakes control boards inside plastic housings. Thunderstorm downpours followed by weeks of high humidity corrode hinge pins and actuator arms. Then hurricane-season wind gusts load gate leaves sideways, which is when a settling post turns into a binding hinge and a burned-out motor. Older Davie gates often sit on original pressure-treated wood posts set thirty or forty years ago. Those posts rot below grade, heave after heavy rain, and slowly pull the gate out of square. A technician who only checks the motor will miss the problem completely.
Many Davie properties also sit along the town’s trail system and orange-grove-remnant acreage, where fence-line entry gates serve horses, trailers, and feed trucks. Those gates need to open and close every day, often by hand, on gravel or unpaved drives. The work is different from what you’d find in Plantation or Cooper City. You need a water level and a post-setter, not just a multimeter.
Styles & brands we work with
Our Main Davie Services
Two services cover most of what Davie homeowners and property managers call us for: fixing a gate that has stopped working, and repairing the electric side of an automated system when the motor, board, or sensors fail.
Gate Repair in Davie
Most gate repairs in Davie start with a hinge, a post, or a wheel track that has failed from years of sun and rain. We check the full system, from the motor to the hinge, before quoting any part. Sandy soil here means posts settle and shift after the wet season, and a gate that scrapes the ground today was probably level in March. We work on the brand already on your property and repair first, replace only when necessary. For the full scope of Gate Repair in Davie, see that page for pricing and same-day availability.
Electric Gate Repair in Davie
When a gate won’t open from the keypad, the remote, or the exit loop, the fault is usually electrical, not mechanical. We carry control boards, receiver modules, safety sensor parts, and actuator components for the most common gate brands in Davie. High humidity here corrodes terminals inside control boxes, and lightning from summer storms takes out boards more often than people expect. Electric gate repair is our core specialty, not an add-on. For motor, board, and wiring diagnostics, see Electric Gate Repair in Davie.

Gate Installation in Davie
A new gate in Davie needs to be sized for the lot, the soil, and how the gate gets used every day. Many homes we visit were built between the 1970s and 1990s, and the original gate was installed when the driveway was poured. Since then, posts have settled, the gate leaf has been patched and welded, and the opener may have been replaced once or twice. Some customers want a direct replacement. Others want a wider opening for a boat trailer or horse trailer, which means a new post layout and a different operator. Before we quote anything, we measure the opening, check the post condition, and confirm the electrical run. We do full Gate Installation, from new posts to final opener programming.
In Davie, we regularly install gates on concrete drives in neighborhoods like Forest Ridge and on gravel or dirt access paths on acreage east of Shotgun Road. The gate that works on a level concrete pad may bind on a gravel drive that has ruts after summer rain. We set the gate height and opening arc to match the actual terrain, not a catalog diagram.
Automatic Gate Installation
Signs you need it
You’re opening and closing a heavy gate by hand several times a day, or your current opener no longer matches the gate’s weight and width.
What it costs in Davie
Automatic gate installation in Davie typically ranges from $2,850 to $9,500, with most single swing gate systems landing between $3,200 and $6,000 depending on operator type and gate size.
How we do it
We set or replace posts, mount the hinge and operator, run the power and control wiring, install safety sensors and the receiver, then program remotes and keypads.
Driveway Gate Installation
Signs you need it
The existing gate is rusted through at the bottom rail, the posts are leaning, or the opening is too narrow for your vehicles.
What it costs in Davie
A new driveway gate in Davie usually runs $2,150 to $7,900 installed, with the price driven by gate length, material, and whether we’re adding automation at the same time.
How we do it
We remove the old gate and hardware, place and set new posts at the correct depth for Davie’s sandy soil, hang the new gate, and align the hinges and latch for a level swing.
What Gate Installation Costs in Davie
| Item | Typical range in Davie |
|---|---|
| New gate and posts (manual) | $2,150 – $7,900 |
| Automatic gate installation | $2,850 – $9,500 |

How long does a gate installation take in Davie?
Most Davie gate installations take one full day. Custom steel gates or jobs requiring new concrete post footings and electrical trenching may stretch to two days, especially when we have to schedule around afternoon storms.
Do I need a permit to install a gate in Davie?
Davie requires permits for many gate and fence installations, particularly on corner lots and along major roads. We confirm the current Town of Davie code requirements before the job and build the permit step into the schedule and quote.
Brands We Service in Davie
We carry parts and diagnostic experience for Elite, Mighty Mule, LiftMaster, and FAAC systems on service trucks headed to Davie. That means less waiting on a second trip for a control board or receiver. Our technicians know the failure points on these brands before they arrive, which keeps most repairs to one visit. For a wider list, see our brands.

Yes, and that’s common on Davie’s acreage properties and equestrian lots. We set posts deeper where the soil has been washed out, and we adjust the gate’s swing path for ruts and uneven grade. A gate installed for a gravel drive needs different clearances than one on a concrete pad, and we build that into the quote.

What Davie Customers Say
"Gate works properly now and the price was fair. The one thing is that it took two visits, because the operator model we have is old and the part had to be ordered. They didn't charge for the second trip."
— Ernesto Flores"Control board fried after a lightning storm. He showed me the burn mark on it, quoted the board, and installed a surge protector on the line so it hopefully doesn't happen again."
— Roger Ziegler"We had a hydraulic arm leaking fluid onto the driveway. Replaced, cleaned up the stain as best he could, and it's been dry for months."
