Viking Gate Repair in Flower Mound, TX

Flower Mound’s Cross Timbers district holds to one home per two acres, so entrance gates there tend to be wide, heavy leaves at the end of a long drive. Viking builds its operators for exactly that kind of gate, usually running on DC from a battery that is charged by a panel or a trickle charger. The weak points follow the setting: batteries that tire in Texas heat, charging that cannot keep up on a gate far from the house, and limit drift on long single leaves that move a little further out of position every season.

On a Viking T-21 or R-6 swing operator, we check the mechanical limit switches and the hang of the gate together, since a leaf that has dropped on clay will make the limits look wrong. Older K-2 slide units can lose their limits after a complete loss of power, which we relearn on site. Gearbox and drive chain wear on heavy gates is real, but it comes after battery, board and gate checks. That order matters in Bridlewood, Canyon Falls or along FM 1171 Cross Timbers Rd.
