A gate installation in Spicewood typically costs $4,000–$12,000 depending on length, material, and whether the property requires solar power — which roughly 40% of our Spicewood installations do due to the distance from electrical service.
Spicewood properties present specific installation challenges that we plan for.
A handful of styles cover most of what we build for Spicewood and Lake Travis properties.
Want ideas for your entrance? See our driveway gate ideas for the Hill Country, then we'll match a style to your driveway and budget on the estimate.
Cost depends on gate size, material, and power setup. These are typical ranges for Spicewood installations.
Many Spicewood installations are solar. Our solar gate packages include everything the system needs to run independent of the grid.
Central Texas sunshine makes solar highly reliable. We size the system to ensure operation during extended cloudy periods.
We answer the phone. We come out, size up your driveway and power setup, and give you a firm number — no diagnostic fee.
Spicewood properties often benefit from access systems built for distance and off-grid power.
Spicewood terrain often dictates the choice. We evaluate your specific driveway during the consultation and recommend the right system.
We install and service professional-grade gate operators and access systems — not the lightweight openers sold at big-box stores. Spicewood properties, with their long driveways and off-grid power, need equipment built for it.
If your gate already runs on one of these, we can repair or upgrade it — see gate repair in Spicewood. If you're starting fresh, we match the operator to your gate size, driveway, and power setup during the free on-site estimate.

Same-day in most cases across Spicewood and the Lake Travis Hill Country.
Serving Spicewood, TX & the Lake Travis Hill Country
"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."
Most Spicewood gate installations run $4,000–$12,000, depending on gate length, material, and whether the property needs solar power — about 40% of our Spicewood jobs do, because of how far they sit from electrical service. A solar power package adds roughly $800–$2,000. We give a firm number with a free on-site estimate.
Often, yes. Many Spicewood and Lake Travis properties have long driveways set hundreds of feet from the home, so trenching electrical power to the gate is expensive. A solar opener with a deep-cycle battery and 3–5 day reserve runs reliably on Central Texas sunshine and skips the trenching cost entirely.
It usually comes down to your driveway. Swing gates suit paved or packed-gravel driveways with room for the gate to swing. Cantilever slide gates are better for loose gravel and caliche driveways — there's no ground track to clog with rocks — and for sloped or uneven terrain. We recommend the right one during the consultation.
Yes. Gravel and caliche driveways are exactly where we recommend a cantilever slide gate, since it has no ground track to collect rocks and debris. For rocky Hill Country limestone, we use specialized equipment to set posts properly so the gate holds up for years.
