About our fence and gate installation
A homeowner calls for a new fence or gate when they need to define a boundary, secure a yard, or control livestock. The existing fence may be rotted, sagging, or gone, or there is no fence at all. They want something that will stand up to Hill Country weather and look good doing it.
We start by marking the layout and digging post holes below the frost line. Each post is set in concrete and allowed to cure before we weld on the frame. Metal panels or pipe sections are cut, fitted, and welded in place. Gates are hung on heavy hinges and adjusted for swing and latch alignment.
The length of the run, number of corners, and slope of the ground affect how much cutting and fitting is needed. Rocky soil can slow digging, and wet weather may delay concrete setting. The type of metal—schedule 40 pipe versus lighter tubing—changes the weight and the welding time.
On the day of installation, we bring a skid steer or hand tools, depending on access. We protect driveways and landscaping with plywood and tarps. After the work, we backfill holes, compact the dirt, and haul away debris. You should clear the fence line of obstacles and mark any buried utilities beforehand.
Post-Set Concrete
Each post hole is filled with concrete to below grade, then sloped away from the post to shed water and prevent frost heave.
Welded Gusset Plates
Gate corners are reinforced with welded gusset plates to resist sagging over time, especially on wide or heavy gates.

Our 4-step fence and gate installation process
Site Layout
We walk the property line, mark post locations with spray paint, and check for underground utilities before any digging starts.
Dig and Set Posts
Holes are dug with a power auger or by hand in tight spots. Each post is plumbed, braced, and poured with concrete to the correct depth.
Frame and Panels
Once concrete cures, we weld horizontal rails between posts, then attach metal panels or pipe sections. Gates are built and hung on heavy-duty hinges.
Final Adjustments
We check all gate swings, latch alignment, and panel gaps. The site is cleaned of welding slag, wire, and debris before we leave.
Why Walker Welding for fence and gate installation
Proper Post Setting
A fence is only as straight as its posts. We set each one in concrete with a sloped top to shed water, preventing rot and frost heave that cause leaning.
Welded, Not Bolted
Bolted joints loosen over time. We weld every connection—rails to posts, gate corners to frames—so the structure stays tight and rattle-free for years.
On-Site Custom Fit
Every property has uneven ground and odd corners. We measure and cut each panel on site, so the fence follows the contour without gaps or awkward angles.
