Gate installation in Hollywood, FL usually runs $2,400 to $8,500 depending on the gate type, operator brand, and whether the job needs new posts in sandy or salt-affected soil. Most Hollywood installs we quote include either a welded aluminum or powder-coated steel driveway gate paired with a LiftMaster or FAAC operator sized for the gate’s weight and daily cycles. Call (855) 362-1433 for a free, on-site measure and a written price before any work is scheduled.
Hollywood’s mix of 1950s bungalows, canal-side properties, and 1990s HOA subdivisions means no two gate installs look the same. A mid-century home off Hollywood Boulevard might need a custom wood gate rebuilt to match the original coral-rock posts, while a villa community near Emerald Hills usually wants a standard ornamental aluminum gate on a Mighty Mule or Elite operator. We plan each install around the site’s soil, exposure, and HOA requirements first, then build the gate and set the automation to match.
Why Hollywood Homes Are Different
Salt air is the biggest difference. In Hollywood Lakes, the barrier island, and any canal-side or Intracoastal-adjacent block, unpainted steel and cheap zinc hardware corrode in two to three years if they’re not hot-dip galvanized or stainless. We regularly pull rust-welded hinges off gates that still look fine from the street. A gate installed with inland-grade hardware in east Hollywood fails early, every time.
Soil is the second issue. Older Hollywood Lakes homes often have driveway gates hung between original masonry or coral-rock walls that have shifted over decades in the sandy, fast-draining soil. You can’t just hang a new gate on posts that are out of plumb by two inches. We re-set posts, re-plumb hinges, and build the gate to the wall as it sits today, not as it was drawn in 1962. Inland, in newer HOA subdivisions, the ground is more stable but the jobs are more standardized: aluminum or ornamental-steel driveway and pool gates, usually with a LiftMaster or BFT operator already on the property.
Hurricane season adds one more layer. From June through November, we see flood-damaged operators, bent tracks, sheared hinges, and waterlogged wooden gates. Post-storm work in Hollywood means checking the operator’s control board for corrosion, replacing any hardware that shows salt or flood exposure, and rebuilding wood gates with rot-resistant materials and stainless fasteners.
Styles & brands we work with
Our Main Hollywood Services
Most Hollywood calls to us fall into two buckets: a gate that won’t move the way it should, or an electric operator that’s stopped responding. Both are covered below.
Gate Repair in Hollywood
When a Hollywood gate drags, sags, or won’t latch, the cause is usually one of three things: rust-welded hinges on a coastal property, a wood gate that’s swollen or rotted from humidity and salt, or posts that have shifted in the sandy soil. We rebuild wood gates, cut out and replace corroded iron sections, re-set posts in concrete that’s rated for brackish groundwater, and re-hang gates so they swing true. Near the Intracoastal, we default to stainless or hot-dip galvanized hardware because anything less won’t survive. Gate Repair in Hollywood covers the full scope of structural gate work, including emergency calls after storms.
Electric Gate Repair in Hollywood
An operator that hums but won’t move, a gate that reverses mid-travel, or a keypad that stopped working after a heavy rain: those are electric gate failures, and they’re most of what we diagnose in Hollywood. We work on LiftMaster, FAAC, BFT, Linear, Viking, Ghost Controls, DoorKing, Elite, and Mighty Mule systems, so the repair is brand-aware, not guesswork. Coastal Hollywood sees a lot of control-board corrosion and limit-switch failures from salt air and flood exposure. Electric Gate Repair in Hollywood covers diagnostics, board and motor replacement, safety-edge alignment, and access-control fixes.

Gate Installation in Hollywood
Gate installation in Hollywood typically costs $2,400 to $8,500, with most single driveway gates landing between $3,800 and $6,200 including the operator and basic access controls. The local variables are soil, salt air, and HOA standards: a canal-side home in Hollywood Lakes may need deeper concrete footings and all stainless hardware, while a 1990s subdivision near West Lake usually takes a standard aluminum gate on existing posts. We quote every job after measuring on site, and the price is fixed before work starts. Gate Installation is our primary service, and it covers the gate, the operator, the access controls, and the electrical run.
Automatic Gate Installation
Signs you need it
You’re getting out of the car in the rain to open a manual gate, or the current operator is too weak for the gate’s weight and keeps tripping its breaker.
What it costs in Hollywood
Automatic gate installation in Hollywood runs $3,200 to $8,500, with most jobs in the $4,500 to $6,500 range depending on the operator brand and gate size.
How we do it
We measure the gate’s weight and width, match the operator to that load, set the post and hinge hardware, mount the operator, run the power and safety loops, and program the travel limits before testing the full open-close cycle.
Driveway Gate Installation
Signs you need it
The existing driveway gate sags past the point of economical repair, the posts are rotted or rusted through, or you’re securing the property for the first time.
What it costs in Hollywood
Driveway gate installation in Hollywood ranges from $2,600 to $7,500, with the final price driven by gate length, material, whether new posts are needed, and the operator you choose.
How we do it
We set or reset the posts in concrete suited to Hollywood’s sandy soil, build or hang the gate so it’s plumb on both planes, install the operator and safety edges, then run the full test cycle with you watching the limit adjustments.
What Gate Installation Costs in Hollywood
| Item | Typical range in Hollywood |
|---|---|
| Automatic gate installation | $3,200 – $8,500 |
| Driveway gate installation | $2,600 – $7,500 |
| Electric gate installation | $2,400 – $6,800 |
Do I need HOA approval before installing a gate in Hollywood?
Most Hollywood HOAs and villa communities require written approval before any driveway or pool gate is installed or replaced. The review usually covers material, finish, height, and operator type. We can prepare spec sheets and material samples for your HOA package, but the final approval comes from the board.
How long does a gate installation take in Hollywood?
A standard single driveway gate with an operator typically takes one to two days on site. Custom gates, coral-rock post repairs, or full sliding-gate frames can run three to five days. Weather and soil conditions near the Intracoastal sometimes push that window, and we’ll tell you before we start. Call (855) 362-1433 for a firm schedule after the measure.
Brands We Service in Hollywood
We carry parts and service all nine major operator brands, but in Hollywood we work on LiftMaster, FAAC, and Elite systems more than anything else. That covers most mid-range residential openers through high-cycle HOA and small commercial systems. We also repair Mighty Mule units, which show up often on Hollywood’s lighter aluminum driveway gates. Our brands page lists the full lineup.

| Safety loop or edge replacement | $200 – $600 |
| Post re-setting | $350 – $1,000 |
Coastal Hollywood properties near the Intracoastal and the barrier island push prices toward the top of these ranges because the work demands stainless or hot-dip galvanized hardware and often deeper concrete footings. Hollywood Lakes homes with shifted coral-rock or masonry walls may add a few hundred dollars for post re-setting and hinge re-plumbing before the gate itself is touched.
Every price above is a quote range, not an estimate we hope to beat. We measure, we quote, and the number you approve is the number on the invoice. No change orders, no surprise line items.

What Hollywood Customers Say
"Photo eye was misaligned so the gate refused to close after dark. Ten minute fix. He also cleaned the lens and pointed out that the sprinkler head was spraying it every morning, which is why it kept happening."
— Alicia Jackson"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."
— Imani Prince"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."
— Ryan Quinn
