Custom Gates – Lindsey Fencing & Portable Welding

Gates That Combine Strength, Security, and Smooth Operation

A gate is more than just an opening in a fence — it’s the most used part of your fencing system and often the first thing people see when they arrive at your property. At Lindsey Fencing & Portable Welding, we build custom gates that are designed for everyday use, built to last through years of operation, and tailored to the exact dimensions and needs of your land.

We fabricate and install gates for farms, ranches, agricultural facilities, and rural homesteads across Texas, and for the right project, we’ll travel to Oklahoma, Las Vegas, and beyond. Whether you need a heavy-duty livestock gate, a wide field gate for machinery access, or a custom driveway entrance, our gates are built to perform.

Why a Quality Gate Matters


A poorly built or installed gate will quickly become a problem. Weak hinges lead to sagging, latches can misalign, and frames that aren’t properly reinforced can warp or bend over time. In rural and agricultural settings, that can mean escaped livestock, reduced security, and costly downtime.

By choosing a professionally built gate from Lindsey Fencing & Portable Welding, you get:

Types of Gates We Build

 Driveway Entry Gates

Your driveway gate is both a functional barrier and a visual statement. We can build anything from a simple, straight-bar steel gate to a fully custom design with decorative elements. Frames are reinforced, hinges are heavy-duty, and latches are chosen for ease of use and security.

Livestock Gates

We design and weld livestock gates to handle constant use and occasional impact from animals. This includes reinforced corners, sturdy hinges, and latch systems that are easy for people to operate but secure against animal interference

Field and Farm Gates

For agricultural access points, we build wide-span gates that accommodate tractors, harvesters, and trailers. Bracing and hinge posts are set to handle the extra weight and width without sagging.

Installation – Hinges and latch posts are set for maximum strength, alignment is tested, and swing or slide action is checked for smooth movement.

Materials and Hardware That Last

We use heavy-gauge steel for frames, along with hinges designed to handle repeated cycles without loosening. All welds are made to full penetration standards for strength, and we select latch systems that match your security needs — from simple drop pins to keyed locks.

Where extra durability is needed, we add gussets or cross-bracing to prevent twisting or sagging.

Repairs, Modifications, and Upgrade



Not every gate needs to be replaced. Our portable welding service allows us to repair or modify gates on-site. Services include:

Welder wearing safety gear, using torch on metal surface. Sparks fly. Dark, industrial setting.

Straightening bent frames

Replacing worn or broken hinges

Upgrading latches for better security

Adding reinforcements to high-stress areas

Adjusting gates for new openings or wider access

These repairs can extend the life of your gate and restore smooth operation without the cost of a full rebuild.


Integrating Gates with Fencing


A great gate is only as strong as the fencing that supports it. We ensure your gate installation is part of the overall fencing plan by:
