What Weatherford Homeowners Say About Vance Gate Repair Weatherford
A gate that won’t open isn’t a small problem. It’s the difference between getting to work on time and standing in your driveway at 6:40 a.m. wondering what broke overnight. The reviews below come from people in Weatherford who called us when something went wrong, and they describe what happened after. We don’t coach reviews, and we don’t hand out scripts. We hand out a written price before the first tool comes off the truck, do the work, and leave a photo record of what we found. The rest is up to the customer.
Recent Reviews
“The gate motor on our ranch entrance stopped responding to the remote about two weeks ago. Adrian found a failed capacitor in the LiftMaster control board and had the replacement part on the truck. Fixed in under an hour. The written photo log he left showing the old part and the new one is something I’ve never gotten from any other repair company.”

“A windstorm last spring knocked our double swing gate out of alignment so badly it was dragging across the concrete. The crew checked both hinges, found one weld had cracked, re-welded it on site, and reset the travel limits. They showed me the exact spot on the before and after photos. Priced before they started. No surprises.”

“The access control keypad at our rental property in the south part of town quit recognizing codes. Turns out the wiring had corroded inside the post from a leaking sprinkler head. Vance Gate Repair moved the keypad to a new weatherproof enclosure, reran the conductors, and reprogrammed all four tenant codes while I watched. They even labeled which wire went where in the photo record.”

“I’ll be honest, I expected a pushy salesman to tell me the old FAAC swing arm was toast and I needed a whole new operator. Instead, the tech found a sheared bolt where the arm attached to the gate leaf. He replaced the bolt, greased the pivot points, and adjusted the slow-down zone. That was nine months ago and it still runs quiet. It cost me less than a dinner for four.”
Marcy H. - Weatherford, Hudson Oaks side
“On a Sunday night our ornamental driveway gate got jammed half-open after a strong gust. I called at 9 p.m., a live person answered, and a technician was at the house by 10:30. The problem was a broken chain on the Viking operator. He had the replacement link set and the gate cycling again by midnight. Written price handed to me before he touched anything.”
Bryce W. - Weatherford, near Weatherford College
“We bought a property that came with an automatic gate that hadn’t been serviced in years. The photo-eye had spider webs and the sensors were pointed at the ground. The tech cleaned the lenses, re-aimed the beam, and showed me how to test it properly. There’s a magnetic catch releasing too early on one leaf and they gave me a written quote to fix that separately without any pressure.”
