Swing Gate Installation in Richardson: what we see
Residential swing gates are a familiar sight in Richardson, and many in established neighborhoods are decades old. Replacing one is a chance to fix what has been wearing for years: posts that have leaned in the clay, hinges that were light for the leaf, and operators installed before modern entrapment protection. It is also the time to decide whether existing remotes and keypads should carry over.
We confirm what the city and your HOA require, set hinge posts in footings suited to the leaf, use heavy duty hinges, and choose an arm or articulated operator rated for the gate. Photo eyes and edges are placed to cover the swing area to UL 325, and the gate is built to ASTM F2200. That applies on a home in Cottonwood Heights or along Coit Road.

Swing Gate Installation in Richardson: questions
Our Richardson swing gate posts have leaned. Do they need replacing with the gate?
Usually. A leaning post will pull a new gate out of alignment just as it did the old one. We check how far the post has moved and the condition of the footing. Where it has shifted, we reset it or set a new post in a proper footing before hanging the new gate.
Can my new swing gate open outward?
It can, but inward is usually safer, so the leaf does not swing over the sidewalk or into the street. If the drive slopes up or space is tight, outward may be the only option. We confirm what the city requires and design the swing so it clears people, vehicles and the ground.
