Our team provides measuring, fabrication, powder coating and hanging, delivering a gate that swings true for homes and a secure entry for both residential and commercial projects. Backed by 17 years in business and our 18-month workmanship warranty, we've completed over 1,483 projects, from a 36 in side gate to a 42 in arched gate in a stone wall.
From the post check to the last latch adjustment, our team handles every walk gate. Serving Cedar Park alongside Round Rock, Georgetown and Leander, we hang each walk gate so it opens with one hand and closes on its own latch.
Request a free estimate, and we will measure the opening, check the post and price the walk gate before any steel is cut.

Paige's stone wall at Hills of Lakeway in The Hills had a wood walk gate that stuck in humid weather. We built a 42 in arched steel walk gate to fit the stone opening, hung it on adjustable hinges and added a keyed latch and a closer. Paige paid an estimated $800 to $1,300 for the arched leaf, and the crew needed an estimated 4 to 8 hours on site. The gate opens with one hand in any weather.
A walk gate is the door of the yard, so it is used every day and wears out faster than the fence around it. The city grew from 26,049 people in 2000 to 77,595 in 2020, so many Buttercup Creek and Twin Creeks side gates are now 20 years old and rotting at the latch. Ranch at Brushy Creek and Crystal Falls owners often keep the fence and change only the gate. Rough Hollow and Lakeway Drive gates in Lakeway face the lake, while Lake Austin side gates in Steiner Ranch sit on slope. In Georgetown, Sun City is an age-restricted Del Webb community from 1996 with 8,488 homes, so we ask there about a latch that opens with one hand.
A walk gate is estimated at $650 to $1,450 each, and the width, the height, the arch, the post condition and the lock move that number most.

| Job | Est. investment | Est. duration on site |
|---|---|---|
| Walkway or courtyard entry gate | Est. $650 to $1,450 each | Est. 4 to 8 hours |
| Access control | Est. $750 to $4,300 | Est. 4 to 8 hours |
| Video intercom and keypad entry | Est. $750 to $4,300 per system | Est. 4 to 8 hours |
A typical walk gate lands inside the estimated price range and typically takes 4 to 8 hours, while a gate in a stone wall may take a little longer to fit. These walk gate figures are estimates, and an arch, a stone opening or a keypad lock can change them; the written quote fixes the final price and the hanging schedule once the post is checked.
A flat top walk gate is the simplest and the lowest cost, an arched gate suits a stone or brick opening, and a hand-forged gate suits a home with older ironwork. The table sets the three walk gate styles side by side on estimated price and on the opening each suits.
| Gate style | Est. price | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Flat top steel walk gate | Est. $650 to $1,450 each | Side yards and courtyards |
| Arched steel walk gate | Est. $800 to $1,300 for a 42 in gate | A stone or brick wall opening |
| Hand-forged iron fence line to match | Est. $88 to $128 per linear foot | A home with older ironwork |
A walk gate is fitted to its opening in a set order, so the post, the hinge and the latch all agree. The process starts with the post and ends with a latch test.
Steel is the standard walk gate material, and our steel gate and fence material comparison explains galvanizing and powder coat. For a driveway leaf to match, see our custom driveway gates, and for a gate that locks by keypad see gate access control.
We measure the opening, weld the leaf and hang it ourselves, so the crew that checks your post is the crew that sets your latch. After 17 years and over 1,483 projects, the 18-month workmanship warranty has covered welds, the hinge set and gate travel on every walk gate we have built. Walk gates in Rollingwood and West Lake Hills get the same crew and the same post check. Stuart's self-closing gate in Twin Creeks sits in a 96 lf powder-coated aluminum pool barrier, an estimated $3,100 to $4,100 over 1 to 2 days. Shirin's 60 lf of 1970s gate and fence on Westlake Drive was blasted, zinc primed and recoated for an estimated $2,000 to $2,800 over 1 to 3 days. In Old Town, Felicia's 32 lf square-bar guard on a porch and stair has a hand-rubbed black finish, at an estimated $2,500 to $3,700 over 6 to 10 hours.
We build walk gates across a 40-mile radius, with gates in Georgetown, The Hills and Round Rock, and the other towns we cover are listed on the service area page. Old Town, Wolf Ranch and Airport Road homes in Georgetown mostly want a side-yard gate. Crystal Falls, Travisso and Mason Hills homes in Leander are newer, so most orders replace a builder gate, and Leander's Fire Marshal also uses a Knox key box on access-controlled entries. Forest Creek and Chisholm Trail Road homes in Round Rock are older, so the post is checked first. Quinlan Park Road side and University Club side lots in Steiner Ranch sit on slope, so the post is set to the grade, while Hills of Lakeway and Flintrock Falls owners in The Hills need association and Village approval first. Brodie Lane side and Slaughter Creek side homes in Shady Hollow date from 1972 on, and Lime Creek Road and Volente Road lake lots in Volente call for a galvanized gate.
A walk gate usually pairs with a driveway gate, a replacement leaf, or a pool barrier where the gate also guards water. A walled front patio usually calls for a courtyard entry gate instead.
A walk gate is typically estimated at $650 to $1,450 each, and your written quote fixes the price once the post is checked.
A walk gate is an estimated 4 to 8 hours of work on site once the shop has built the leaf, and the written quote gives the day.
Yes, we measure the stone opening and build the gate to it, and we probe the stone for movement first.
Yes, the latch is set to catch without a push and open with one hand.
Yes, access control is typically estimated at $750 to $4,300, and your quote names it.
A walk gate on a property line or beside a pool can fall under a city rule, so we ask the office for your address and note its answer on your quote.
Request a free estimate, and the crew will take the opening, check the post and write a quote that names the leaf, the hinges and the latch.
Start to finish
An estimator walks the opening, reads the grade and marks where the leaf or the slide run has to clear.
Steel gets cut only after you sign off on a scaled drawing that names the tube, the coating and the opener.
Our Cedar Park welders build it, the steel goes for galvanizing and powder coat, and it ships finished.
Posts cure, the leaf goes up, the opener gets wired, and you watch each photo eye and edge stop the gate.
