Our Services

Woodwest Gate Services designs and installs swing gates and sliding gates for residential driveways, ranch entrances, and commercial properties across Fort Collins and Northern Colorado. Every installation begins with a site assessment to determine the right gate type, material, and hardware for the application. We work with steel, aluminum, and wood gates from reputable suppliers and size each installation to the specific opening. Proper post setting, hinge placement, and alignment are central to every gate install we complete.

Automated gate openers add security and convenience to any property. Woodwest installs electric gate operators for both swing and sliding gates, including linear arm operators, underground actuators, and rack-and-pinion slide systems. We source quality motor units and configure each system for reliable, long-term operation — including limit settings, obstacle detection, and fail-safe modes. Whether you are automating an existing manual gate or installing a completely new automated entry, our team handles the full scope from electrical connections to final programming.

Gate problems rarely fix themselves, and a malfunctioning gate creates both security vulnerabilities and daily frustration. Woodwest Gate Services diagnoses and repairs all types of gate issues including motor failures, limit switch problems, damaged track and wheels, sagging hinges, broken springs, and corroded hardware. We troubleshoot gate openers from a wide range of manufacturers and stock common replacement parts to minimize wait times. Our repair process starts with an honest assessment — we will tell you exactly what is wrong and what it will take to fix it.

Regular maintenance extends the life of any gate system and helps catch developing problems before they become expensive repairs. Woodwest offers gate maintenance visits that include lubrication of moving parts, inspection of hinges and rollers, motor cycle testing, safety sensor calibration, and a general assessment of the gate structure. Fort Collins properties that experience significant seasonal temperature swings benefit especially from annual or semi-annual maintenance checks. Keeping up with routine service is the most cost-effective way to protect your investment in an automated gate.

Automated gates work best when paired with the right access control equipment. Woodwest installs and integrates keypads, proximity card readers, telephone entry systems, and video intercom units with existing gate operators. We configure entry codes, exit loops, and remote access options so the full system works reliably from day one. Whether you need a simple keypad for a residential driveway or a multi-user intercom system for a commercial facility, we match the technology to the application and ensure everything is properly wired and programmed.

Commercial gate installations in Fort Collins require heavier-duty components and more rigorous installation standards than typical residential work. Woodwest Gate Services handles high-cycle gate operators, high-traffic slide gates, and perimeter security fencing projects for commercial facilities, industrial sites, storage facilities, multi-family complexes, and municipalities across Northern Colorado. We work directly with property managers, general contractors, and facilities directors to plan and complete commercial gate projects on schedule and within budget.
