What Rollingwood's Front Yard Fence Rules Mean for Your Gate

Our team provides a hand-tripped reverse test on motorized gates and tight-tolerance fabrication, delivering clean modern openings for both residential and commercial projects. Backed by 17 years in business and an 18-month workmanship warranty on welds, hinge set, footings and gate travel, our 1,483 completed projects include tight-tolerance doors, stairs and a few quiet driveway entries.

From the first setback measurement to the last door adjustment, our team handles every detail. Serving Rollingwood and neighboring Shady Hollow, West Lake Hills and Cedar Park, we read the fence code before we draw the gate.

Request a free estimate, and our Rollingwood location manager will check the fence code against your lot before anything is cut.

Owen on Rollingwood Drive had a roof-deck remodel where a straight stair would have eaten the side yard, so we built a spiral stair 60 inches in diameter with an 11 ft rise. It was an estimated $3,900 to $5,600 job that typically took 2 to 3 days.

Ravi on Hatley Drive had a modern rebuild with a tall opening a stock door could not fill, so we made a 48 in by 108 in pivot door. That entry door was an estimated $8,800 to $13,500 and typically took 1 to 2 days.

Front Yard Fences Are Conditional in Rollingwood

Rollingwood placed a moratorium on front yard fences in October 2011. Sec. 107-34 now allows front yard fences only conditionally, and none closer than 15 feet to the curb. A city staff document describes a front height of 3 ft with an average of 80% visibility. Side and back fences need a permit, anything over 6 ft needs an engineer's stamp, and replacing more than half a fence needs a permit. A 2025 draft looks at 8 ft, but adoption is unconfirmed, so confirm current text with the city before you order.

Why Rollingwood Gates Sit Back From the Street

A gate that must stay 15 feet from the curb leaves a deep forecourt, so a tube steel single swing drive gate with operator, estimated at $2,700 to $4,900 over 1 to 2 days, has room to open. A double leaf swing entry with operators is roughly $4,200 to $7,800 over 2 to 3 days and suits a wider forecourt. A trackless cantilever gate is an estimated $6,200 to $9,800 over 2 to 4 days when a slope eats the swing.

Iron Inside the House: Doors and Stairs

Rollingwood's front fence is tightly limited, so owners put their iron budget into the house, as Owen and Ravi did. A steel spiral stair is typically $1,500 to $5,800 over 1 to 3 days, and a steel or iron entry door is roughly $3,400 to $19,000 over 1 to 2 days. An ornamental stair or balcony guard is an estimated $68 to $132 per linear foot over 5 to 10 hours.

Older Homes and Value

About 41% of Rollingwood homes were built before 1980 (ACS 2024), and 91.1% are owner occupied. The median owner-occupied home value is reported at the $2,000,000 ACS top code, so many lots here carry rebuilds and remodels. An old iron blast and recoat is estimated at $31 to $48 per linear foot over 1 to 3 days for the old fence that stays, and a hand-forged iron fence is roughly $88 to $128 per linear foot over 3 to 6 days.

Materials for Rollingwood Gates

A pivot door and a spiral stair suit iron entry doors and iron staircases in tube steel. Every frame is sandblasted, primed with zinc-rich primer and powder coated at the coater, on ball-bearing hinges and with picket spacing of no more than 4 inches wherever a rail is required.

Rollingwood Gate Costs

An ornamental tube steel fence line in Rollingwood is estimated at $52 to $83 per linear foot, and the crew typically finishes in 2 to 4 days. A walkway or courtyard entry gate is roughly $650 to $1,450 over 4 to 8 hours, and an operator added to an existing gate is an estimated $1,900 to $3,700 over 4 to 8 hours.

A video intercom and keypad entry is typically $750 to $4,300 over 4 to 8 hours, and a track slide gate with rack drive is roughly $1,700 to $4,800 over 2 to 3 days. Each Rollingwood figure is an estimate that can change if the 15-foot curb setback forces a different layout, and the written quote prepared after the fence code check sets the final price and the schedule.

Why Choose Our Cedar Park Crew in Rollingwood

The drive from our Cedar Park shop to Rollingwood is typically 26 minutes, so the crew that measures the opening also hangs the door. A Rollingwood door or stair is covered by the same 18-month workmanship warranty on welds and hinge set as our gates, and any operator carries the maker's own parts warranty.
