If your gate won’t open, won’t latch, or needs to be replaced altogether, you’re in the right place. We’re a gate company working in Westchester, and installation is the job we get asked about most: new driveway gates folded into the concrete-block walls and tight lots that define this community. Westchester is a densely built pocket of unincorporated Miami-Dade where nearly every home sits behind a fence and a gate, so the work here leans heavily residential and practical. Whether you have a Mighty Mule operator that’s given up or a LiftMaster arm that binds every morning, call (877) 802-1841. We answer 24/7, with fast dispatch from 7am to 7pm.
Why Westchester Homes Are Different
Most of Westchester was built between the 1950s and 1970s, and that shows up in the gates. These are ranch-style single-family homes on small lots, many now ringed by concrete-block perimeter walls with wrought-iron or aluminum driveway gates hung on posts that are decades old. When a new sliding or swing operator gets retrofitted onto original hardware, the two have to learn to work together, and that’s where a lot of our Westchester calls start.
The climate does the rest. South Florida’s humid air and heavy summer rain rust hinges, track rails, and control boxes faster than in drier places, and hurricane-season winds put real load on every gate. Miami-Dade wind-load standards apply here, and gates have to meet them to stay compliant, so we check that as part of the job rather than after. The other recurring Westchester problem is subtler: after a named storm, plenty of gates still close but no longer latch. Wind racks block-wall posts just enough that older swing hardware binds, and the gate is really just the visible symptom of a shifted post.

Our Main Westchester Services
Alongside new gate installation, two repair services come up most in Westchester: fixing the gate itself and fixing the electric side of it.
Gate Repair in Westchester
When a gate drags, sags, or stops latching, the fix usually comes down to the posts, hinges, and track. On Westchester’s tight lots a swing gate can be fighting a block-wall post that shifted a fraction of an inch, which binds hardware that worked fine last season. We check the geometry before we touch the operator, because replacing a motor never fixed a warped track. Whether it’s a broken arm or a heavy panel that has come off its rail, we work on the gate you have and get it working again. For gate repair in Westchester, start with a call and a free estimate.
Electric Gate Repair in Westchester
Electric gate repair is what we do, and it’s a real specialty here. Motors, control boards, safety sensors, and remote systems all fail differently, and a lot of the automated gates in Westchester are running on weather-hardened circuit boards and corroded wiring connections. We work on LiftMaster and FAAC units and the rest. electric gate repair covers the power run and the safety edges too, which matters on gates near sidewalks and driveways. If your gate opens halfway and reverses, or the remote has stopped talking to the receiver, that’s our kind of job.
Gate Installation in Westchester
Gate installation in Westchester means fitting a new gate and operator setup onto a property that already has a perimeter wall, a driveway, and usually a decades-old post line. Because lots are narrow and homes sit close together, the gate has to swing or slide within a tight footprint, and it has to meet Miami-Dade wind-load standards from the day it’s hung. Humid air and heavy summer rain are the long-term enemy of every hinge and track, so we build for that from the start. We handle the whole job: measuring, setting posts to proper footing depth, running the power, mounting the operator, and testing the safety edges. If your old gate is beyond repair, we quote a replacement through our Gate Installation service and schedule it around the hardware lead time.
Automatic Gate Installation
Signs you need it
You need automatic gate installation when an existing manual gate gets opened by hand dozens of times a day, or when an old operator has quit and the panel and posts aren’t worth rebuilding around.
What it costs in Westchester
New automatic gate installation in Westchester typically runs $3,200 to $7,500, and the written estimate sets the final price.
How we do it
We measure the opening, set or brace the posts to proper footing depth, mount the operator and safety sensors, run power to the control box, and test the full open-close cycle before we call it done.
Driveway Gate Installation
Signs you need it
A driveway gate replacement is the right call when the old panel is bent, the frame is racked, or the posts have shifted enough that no amount of hinge work will square it up again.
What it costs in Westchester
Driveway gate installation here typically falls between $2,400 and $6,800, depending on width, material, and whether an operator is added when the written estimate is prepared.
How we do it
We remove the old gate and hardware, check and reset the posts into the existing block wall line, hang the new panel, and align the latches and stops so it closes cleanly every time.
What Gate Installation Costs in Westchester
| Item | Typical range in Westchester |
|---|---|
| Automatic gate installation (gate plus operator) | $3,200 – $7,500 |
| Driveway gate installation (panel and hardware) | $2,400 – $6,800 |
| Electric gate installation (power run and controls) | $1,800 – $4,500 |
Do I need a permit to install a new gate in Westchester?
Most gate installations in unincorporated Miami-Dade require a permit, and gates must meet local wind-load standards. Ask the county building department what your property needs, and we’ll factor that into the schedule.
How long does gate installation take in Westchester?
Most residential gate installations take one to three days once materials arrive. Custom panels or a complex power run can stretch that, which is why we measure first and give you a written timeline.
Brands We Service in Westchester
We work on the equipment a Westchester homeowner already owns. That includes LiftMaster arms, FAAC and BFT operators, Mighty Mule DIY systems, and more. We don’t stock parts on a truck, so we identify the unit and order what’s needed. Turnaround runs a few days for common parts. See our brands for the full list.

What Westchester Customers Say
"Fixed the immediate problem. He was honest that the operator is near end of life and I should budget for a replacement, which I appreciate even if it wasn't what I wanted to hear."
- Scott Sullivan"Gate stopped halfway and sat there for two days blocking the driveway. He found a dead capacitor in the operator, swapped it, and we were moving cars again in under an hour."
- Oscar Flores"The loop detector under the driveway had failed and residents were stuck holding the button. He traced it, found the break, and had the exit loop reading cars again the same visit."
