AfterGate Company in Manor, TX
Portcullis Gate Repair is a gate company serving Manor, TX, and the surrounding acreage and subdivisions. Most of our Manor calls come down to the same thing: Blackland Prairie clay pushing posts out of plumb, plus gate operators aging out in a climate that swings from drought to downpour without much warning. We repair ornamental iron driveway gates in ShadowGlen, heavy pipe farm gates off Hog Eye Road, and everything between. Every Manor job starts with a written price before any work begins. Call (940) 412-7340 to schedule a free estimate.
Why Manor Homes Are Different
Manor sits where Austin’s eastward growth runs into the old ranch landscape, and that split shows up in the gates we work on. The newer subdivisions, ShadowGlen and Whisper Valley among them, run automated ornamental iron driveway gates that face HOA design standards. A visible repair often means coordinating with the HOA before we touch a hinge or a post, because material and finish specs are written into the covenants. The older acreage side of Manor runs the other direction: welded steel pipe farm gates, chain-link field entrances, and aging wrought iron that has seen decades of sun and livestock. Both share the same underlying problem, which is the soil.
The Blackland Prairie clay under Manor expands when it gets wet and contracts when it dries. Gates in streets that are only three to seven years old are already leaning or latching hard because posts move with the ground. After the first sustained spring rains, we get repeat calls on the same streets. Post re-setting and re-plumbing are as common for us in Manor as hinge swaps. It is a fixable problem, but the repair has to account for the clay, or the gate will drift again next season.
Our Main Manor Services
Most Manor homeowners call us for one of two things: a gate that will not open or close correctly, or a full replacement. These each have a dedicated Manor page with local pricing and detail.
Gate Repair in Manor
Gate repair in Manor often starts with diagnosing whether the post, the hinge, or the operator failed first. On clay soil, a leaning post will throw off the latch alignment and overload the motor, so we check the full system rather than band-aiding one symptom. We repair swing and slide gates, re-set posts, replace hinges and rollers, and adjust latches. Every fix carries a written 365-Day Done Right Promise. Full details are on our Gate Repair in Manor page.
Gate Installation in Manor
New gate installation in Manor means getting the post footings right for clay soil from day one, then matching the gate to the property. In the HOA subdivisions, that usually means an ornamental iron driveway gate built to the community’s material and finish standards. On acreage, it often means a heavy-duty pipe gate that can handle wind and daily use. We quote every installation in writing before any work starts. See Gate Installation in Manor for what is included and what it costs.
Electric Gate Repair in Manor
Electric gate repair in Manor covers the operators, keypads, loop detectors, safety edges, and wiring that automate a gate door. Power surges during thunderstorm season and ants nesting in control boards are two repeat offenders locally, along with motors working too hard against a gate that is binding because the posts moved. We service LiftMaster, FAAC, BFT, Linear, Viking, Ghost Controls, DoorKing, Elite, and Mighty Mule. Learn more on our Electric Gate Repair in Manor page.

Clay soil movement is the biggest price driver in Manor: a post that has to be dug out, re-set deeper, and re-plumbed costs more than a simple hinge rust-through. HOA-compliant finishes on ornamental work can also add to the materials line. Whatever the job, the price is quoted and agreed in writing before we turn a single bolt, and that number does not change mid-repair.

What Manor Customers Say
"The opener gave out and we were manually pushing the gate for a week. Portcullis got us in quick, swapped the opener, and set up the remotes for both our cars. Great to have it working again."
- Priscilla Nava"Our driveway gate stopped halfway and wouldn't close, which is a problem when it's the only thing between the street and the yard. They came out same day, replaced the motor, and it's smooth again."
- Leonard Pace"Gate wouldn't respond to the remote or the keypad. Turned out to be the control board. They had the part and swapped it the same visit. Quoted it first, no surprises."
- Everett Shaw
