Gate installation in North Tustin usually means replacing a heavy custom iron driveway gate on a sloped, half-acre-plus lot, often with a new automatic opener matched to the existing brand. Lexington Gate Repair handles the full job from removing the old gate and operator to setting new posts, hanging the new gate, and programming the automation. Call (866) 304-1321 for a free estimate. North Tustin’s older ranch and Mediterranean homes rarely have builder-grade gates, so most installations we quote are for estate driveway systems, not small yard gates.
Why North Tustin Homes Are Different
North Tustin is unincorporated foothill country in the Santa Ana Mountains, and the housing stock reflects it. Most homes were built between the 1960s and 1980s on large, irregular lots threaded through oak-studded canyons and ridgelines. Driveways run long and wide, often climbing from the street to a house set well back. The gates on these properties are typically heavy custom steel or wrought iron, built to match ornamental fencing that runs the length of the property line.
The terrain matters more here than in flatter parts of Orange County. Gates sit on sloped, settling ground. When winter rain saturates the soil, posts shift and gates that swung cleanly for years start dragging or binding. Summer brings the opposite problem: intense heat and Santa Ana wind events that bake wood gates, warp steel hinges, and stress the motors on automatic operators. Fire access is a live concern in canyon-edge neighborhoods, where a gate that will not release manually can block emergency vehicles and evacuating families. That reality shapes how we set up releases and battery backups on every North Tustin install.
Styles & brands we work with
Our Main North Tustin Services
North Tustin homeowners call Lexington Gate Repair most often for two things: fixing a gate that will not open or close properly, and repairing the electric operator that drives it. Both are covered below with dedicated North Tustin pages.
Gate Repair in North Tustin
Heavy estate gates in North Tustin take a beating from sun, wind, and shifting hillside soil. We repair bent hinges, sagging frames, broken welds, stuck rollers, and gates that no longer latch. Because most of these are custom iron or steel builds, we fabricate or source matching hardware rather than forcing generic parts. See exactly what a repair call covers on our Gate Repair in North Tustin page.
Electric Gate Repair in North Tustin
Automatic gate problems in North Tustin are usually tied to the operator: circuit boards that fail after wind-driven power surges, limit switches knocked out of adjustment, or motors worn down by a gate that has grown harder to move. We diagnose the specific brand, from FAAC and BFT to Linear and Viking, and fix the actual fault rather than replacing parts on a guess. Details are on the Electric Gate Repair in North Tustin page.

Gate Installation in North Tustin
Gate installation in North Tustin typically involves replacing an aging custom driveway gate or adding a fully automated system to a property that has never had one. Most homes here date to the 1960s through 1980s, which means many original gates and operators are at the end of their service life, and the sloping, sun-exposed terrain creates real demands on post depth, hinge weight ratings, and operator torque. From a simple single swing gate to a long sliding gate across a wide driveway, we handle the full Gate Installation scope, from removing the old hardware to final programming.
Automatic Gate Installation
Signs you need it
You have a manual gate that gets fought with every time you leave or come home, or an old operator that no longer handles the gate’s weight reliably.
What it costs in North Tustin
Automatic gate installation in North Tustin typically runs $2,800 to $9,500 complete with opener, safety edges, and controls.
How we do it
We mount the operator to match the gate’s swing or slide path, set the travel limits, install photoelectric safety edges and a keypad or remote receiver, then test the full cycle under load.
Gate Installation Services
Signs you need it
Your existing gate is rusted through at the hinges, warped beyond adjustment, or too damaged to safely support an automatic opener.
What it costs in North Tustin
Full gate and post replacement in North Tustin typically runs $3,500 to $14,000 depending on gate width, material weight, and the amount of concrete and column work required.
How we do it
We remove the old gate and posts, excavate for deeper footings suited to sloped soil, set and brace new posts, and hang the new gate with hinges rated for its genuine weight.
Driveway Gate Installation
Signs you need it
You are tired of the old gate scraping the driveway, sticking in the wind, or leaving a gap at the latch that compromises privacy and security.
What it costs in North Tustin
Driveway gate installation in North Tustin typically runs $2,600 to $9,800 for a standard custom single gate with manual or automated operation.
How we do it
We measure the driveway width and slope, recommend a gate weight and style that fits the terrain, build or order to spec, and anchor the hinge posts deep enough to resist seasonal ground movement.
Sliding Gate Installation
Signs you need it
Your driveway climbs steeply toward the street, leaving no room for a swing gate to open outward, or you need to cover a wide opening without two heavy leafs.
What it costs in North Tustin
Sliding gate installation in North Tustin typically runs $3,200 to $12,500 including track, rollers, motor, and safety features.
How we do it
We pour or repair the track bed, set the roller posts, install the sliding leaf and track wheels, then mount and wire the operator with obstruction sensing set to North Tustin fire-access requirements.

Can you install a gate on a steep North Tustin driveway?
Yes. We set posts deeper and grade the track bed to match the slope, and we choose operators with enough torque for the grade. Sloping driveways are the norm in North Tustin, not the exception, so we plan for them from the first measurement.
Does the price include removing the old gate and opener?
Removal and disposal of the old gate and operator are included in our quote unless the concrete or column structure needs major rebuilding. You will have the full number agreed before the work starts. Call (866) 304-1321 for an exact written estimate.

What North Tustin Customers Say
"Gate stopped halfway and sat there for two days blocking the driveway. He found a dead capacitor in the operator, had one with him, and we were moving cars again in under an hour."
— Nathan Novak"Hinge post had rotted at the base and the whole swing gate was sagging into the concrete. He rebuilt the post rather than talking us into a whole new gate, which two other companies had pushed for."
— Norma Rodriguez"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."
— Gilbert Hernandez
