Gate installation in Aloha starts with the lot, not the catalog. Most properties here are 1950s to 1980s ranch and split-level homes with detached garages, carports and long side yards, so a new driveway gate has to work around mature fences, sloped ground and posts that have already moved once. We install and repair gates across Aloha and the rest of Washington County, and gates are all we do. Call (855) 251-3899 for a free on-site estimate. We answer 24/7, with fast dispatch from 7am to 7pm, Sunday through Friday.
Why Aloha Homes Are Different
Aloha is an unincorporated community in Washington County, ZIP 97003, which means there’s no single city permit office down the street. Gate work here falls under county standards, and property owners who assume a nearby city’s rules apply often find they don’t. That’s worth knowing before you order a gate.
The bigger factor is the ground. Aloha’s clay-heavy soils hold water through the wet Willamette Valley season, roughly 40 inches of rain mostly between October and May, and the occasional ice storm. Wood posts rot out at the soil line within a decade or two, metal hinges and latches rust, and saturated ground plus freeze-thaw heave shift posts until gates sag, lean or drag. Generous fenced lots mean a lot of swing room, but also long runs of aging wood picket-privacy and chain-link gates hanging from 4×4 posts set years ago.
Housing stock matters too. Detached garages, carports and wide side yards mean a driveway gate often has to clear a slope and a mature hedge on the same approach. We measure before we recommend anything.

Our Main Aloha Services
Two jobs come up more than any other on Aloha properties: fixing the gate that’s already there, and getting a powered operator back online.
Gate Repair in Aloha
Most gate repair in Aloha is not a replacement. It’s a rotted post on an otherwise-sound yard gate, a hinge that’s rusted through, a latch that no longer lines up because the post has heaved a half inch. The wet season does more damage than anything else, and by spring a gate that closed cleanly in October is dragging on the concrete. We diagnose the actual failure before we touch anything, so you’re not paying to replace a gate that needs a post. If you want the full picture of what we handle, see Gate Repair in Aloha.
Electric Gate Repair in Aloha
Electric gates fail in ways manual gates don’t, and the operator is usually where the answer is. Control boards, safety reversal sensors, loop detectors, limit switches, battery backup and the wiring that ties them together all need someone who reads schematics rather than guesses. We work on Mighty Mule and LiftMaster residential systems as well as commercial-grade operators, so a driveway gate and an access-controlled entry get the same level of diagnosis. Details on the electrical side live at Electric Gate Repair in Aloha.
Gate Installation in Aloha
Gate installation in Aloha is mostly retrofit work, not blank-slate custom iron. The properties here are older, the fences are established, and the real question is usually whether a new gate can hang from what’s already in the ground. Aloha’s clay soils and long wet season settle that quickly: a post that’s been holding a wood gate for fifteen years is often rotten below grade even when the top looks fine, and hanging a heavier gate on it just accelerates the failure. We start with a free on-site measure and a written price through Gate Installation, so the footing, the swing and the operator are all accounted for before anything is ordered.
Driveway Gate Installation
Signs you need it
Your current driveway gate has been patched repeatedly, the posts shift season to season, or you’re adding a gate where the driveway has always been open.
What it costs in Aloha
Driveway gate installation typically runs $1,800 to $4,200 in Aloha depending on gate width, material and whether an operator and power run are included.
How we do it
We measure the opening and check grade and soil, set posts to proper footing depth, hang and align the gate, then mount and program the operator if one is going in.
Automatic Gate Installation
Signs you need it
The gate is manual and getting out of the vehicle every time has stopped being reasonable, or an old operator has failed and isn’t worth rebuilding.
What it costs in Aloha
Automatic gate installation typically runs $2,400 to $5,500 in Aloha, including the operator, arms or slide mechanism, and safety devices.
How we do it
We match the operator to the gate’s weight and swing, mount it, wire the power and safety edges, then test reversal and set the limits.
What Gate Installation Costs in Aloha
| Item | Typical range in Aloha |
|---|---|
| Driveway gate installation | $1,800 – $4,200 |
| Automatic gate installation | $2,400 – $5,500 |
| Sliding gate installation | $2,200 – $5,000 |
Do I need a permit for a gate in Aloha?
Because Aloha is unincorporated, gate and fence rules come from Washington County rather than a city office. We’ll tell you what typically triggers a permit and what to ask the county before work starts.
Can you install a gate on a slope?
Yes. Sloped driveways are common on Aloha’s older lots, and they change the swing, the footing depth and often the operator choice. We measure grade during the free estimate rather than after the gate arrives.
Brands We Service in Aloha
We work on Mighty Mule and LiftMaster residential systems, FAAC and BFT commercial operators, and the rest of the nine brands we cover. We don’t claim stocked parts, but brand familiarity means faster diagnosis and fewer return visits. See our brands for the full list.

What Aloha Customers Say
"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."
- Amanda Bennett"Solar panel on our remote gate wasn't keeping the battery up through the winter. He repositioned it, replaced the battery, and explained the math on why the old placement was never going to work."
- Jennifer Gallagher"Gate works properly now and the price was fair. The one thing is that it took two visits, because the operator model we have is old and the part had to be ordered. They didn't charge for the second trip."
- Scott Miller
