Have questions about automatic gate installation, repair, or service in the Austin area? Whether you're looking for gate repair, a custom driveway gate, or access control, Austin Estate Gate has been helping homeowners and businesses with electric gate systems since 2008.
The questions we hear most often about controlling who gets in — and what on-site metalwork costs.
A call box is the intercom station at your gate that lets a visitor reach you before the gate opens. A cellular gate call box works like a small cell phone built into the entry station: when a visitor presses the call button, it dials your phone over the cellular network, and you can talk to them and open the gate from anywhere — no landline or buried phone wiring required. That makes a cellular call box a good fit for long Hill Country driveways and properties without existing phone lines.
A gate access control system decides who can open your gate and keeps a record of entries. It works by connecting your automatic gate opener to one or more entry methods — a keypad code, a remote, a phone app, a call box, or a card or fob reader — so only people you authorize can get in. When someone enters a valid code or is buzzed in, the system signals the opener to run the gate. For homes and estates we keep it simple; for businesses and gated communities we can add multiple users, schedules, and intercom or video.
Mobile gate welding is priced by the job, because cost depends on the scope — a single hinge or bracket repair is far less than rebuilding a bent gate frame or fabricating new metalwork on-site. The honest answer is that we don't quote a flat rate sight-unseen. Austin Estate Gate gives a free on-site estimate: we come to your location in Cedar Park, Liberty Hill, or the greater Austin area, look at the actual gate or fence, and give you a clear price before any work starts.
Adding a keypad or call box to an existing gate often calls for welding too — see why adding a keypad or call box usually means welding.
We answer the phone, come the same day in most cases, and give a free on-site estimate before any work starts.

"I had a really great experience with estate gates. They helped me out on a Sunday when my gate would not open — they even let me keep the key. Then they came back and fixed the gate and have always been super accommodating and professional, along with reasonably priced."
"Charles and Mars did excellent work here at Another Closet in Fredericksburg TX. Above and beyond — got my gate working better than before it was broken. Recommend these two 10 out of 10."
"I have worked with Anthony at my properties for years. He has always been flexible and easy to work with. I find him to be trustworthy, dependable, and always delivers on what he says he will do. When I need service he is there within 24 hrs and always honors warranties."
"We had them install a driveway gate at our home — they showed up every day on time, had professional installers who took their time, a salesperson who gave us 5 different options, then did the work on time, on budget. When my own ignorance required help, they showed up the same day, fixed my issue, educated me with patience and professionalism. Highly recommend this team."
"Our gate stopped working during the cold snap. I didn't catch the name of the person who answered the phone — the day before Christmas Eve, no less — but he was super helpful and talked my husband through how we could get the gate open to make it through the long holiday weekend. Thank you for taking the time to help us."
