Henderson Gate Pros provides professional wood gates in Henderson, NV for residential and commercial properties across the Las Vegas Valley. Wood gates give a warmth that metal cannot match, and in the high desert they need a steel frame underneath or they will twist inside two summers. We build cedar, redwood, and composite-clad driveway gates on fully welded steel frames, so the steel carries the structure and the wood does the looking. That construction detail is the entire difference between a wood gate that lasts and a wood gate that becomes a complaint. A wide wood frame cannot resist the diagonal load of its own weight, because wood joinery flexes and a gate leaf is a lever. Every long-lasting wood driveway gate we have ever seen was built on a metal frame. If someone quotes you a 14-foot all-wood gate with mortise-and-tenon corners and a diagonal brace, they are quoting you a gate that will drag by year three. Species matters more here than in a mild climate. Western red cedar and redwood both have natural decay resistance and, more importantly, they stay dimensionally stable when the humidity drops into the teens and the surface temperature of a south-facing board goes past 140 degrees on a July afternoon. Pressure-treated pine costs less and moves a lot more, and a twisted board on a moving panel is visible from the street every single day. Composite cladding is the third option and it has quietly gotten good: no refinishing, no cupping, and colors that hold, at a higher material cost. Finishing schedule is where we tell people the truth up front. A penetrating oil or semi-transparent stain wants renewal every two to three years here, and a west-facing gate that takes full afternoon sun will want it sooner. Film-forming finishes like varnish look spectacular for one year and then peel in sheets, so we do not use them outdoors in this climate. Left bare, cedar weathers to a silver gray that some people genuinely want, and that is a legitimate choice as long as you understand the wood is also cycling moisture harder and moving more. Wind is the underestimated problem with solid wood gates. A 12-by-6-foot privacy panel is 72 square feet of sail hanging off a hinge post, and the spring gusts through this valley put serious cyclic load on that connection. We either build in a top or bottom gap, space the boards, or size the posts, hinges, and operator for the actual load rather than hoping. Automation works fine on a wood gate as long as it is on a steel frame. Solid panels are heavy and catch wind, so operator sizing matters more here than on an open picket gate, and we spec accordingly. Most cedar driveway gates run $1,200 to $5,000 installed depending on width, height, and frame material, with a single 12-foot gate on a steel frame typically landing between $2,000 and $3,500 before automation. Repairs we do constantly: replacing individual boards, re-welding and re-squaring frames, retrofitting a steel frame under a failing all-wood gate, replacing hinges and hardware, and stripping and refinishing gates that went four years without attention.
With 18+ years of experience, our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — wrought iron and ornamental steel fabrication, powder-coated aluminum gates, cantilever and roller slide gates, LiftMaster, DoorKing and FAAC operators, Class I-IV operator classifications, UL 325 entrapment protection — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Henderson and nearby communities including Boulder City, Paradise, Winchester, Spring Valley.

Materials, equipment and how we do wood gates
The difference between wood gates that lasts and wood gates that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with wrought iron and ornamental steel fabrication, powder-coated aluminum gates, cantilever and roller slide gates, LiftMaster, DoorKing and FAAC operators, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.
Every Henderson job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. 18+ years of gate work in the Las Vegas Valley means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.
