Gate installation in Pomona means working with houses built between the 1940s and 1970s, where driveway widths, post conditions, and existing hardware don’t always match what’s sold off the shelf today. Ontario Gate Company has served Pomona since 2011, and we specialize exclusively in gates, so when we measure, quote, and install, we’re accounting for the city’s older tract layouts and the inland heat that shortens the life of cheap components. Call (855) 707-3634 for a free site measure and a written installation quote.
Why Pomona Homes Are Different
Pomona sits at the foot of the San Gabriel Mountains, where dry Santa Ana winds and harsh inland sun take a toll on exterior gates. Wood gates warp and split. Paint and powder coat fade faster than they do in coastal LA. Steel gates develop surface rust that works its way into hinges and latch housings. A gate installed in Pomona has to be built for direct sun, wind, and months of single-digit humidity, not just for curb appeal.
The bigger factor is the housing stock. Much of the city dates to the post-WWII boom through the 1960s and 70s: single-story stucco tract homes, many with original wood or wrought-iron driveway and walkway gates. In older neighborhoods off Holt and Mission, it’s common to find gates hung on 4×4 posts that have dry-rotted at the base from years of sprinkler overspray and sun. When we quote a new gate in those areas, we’re often quoting post replacement in the same job. Near downtown, Craftsman and Spanish Colonial homes have custom gates that need period-appropriate materials and hardware, not a bolted-on modern panel. Those jobs benefit from someone who has opened and diagnosed every major gate brand on the market.
Styles & brands we work with
Our Main Pomona Services
Most Pomona homeowners call us for two reasons: a gate that won’t open or close properly, or a full replacement of an aging gate and operator system. Both are covered in depth below.
Gate Repair in Pomona
Gate repair in Pomona often means working on gates original to mid-century homes that have been repaired piecemeal over decades. Hinges get re-shimmed, posts get braced, and someone adds a weld or a new latch that doesn’t quite match. We diagnose on-site, identify what’s actually failing versus what’s been patched around, and quote the repair before any work starts. For sagging gates, seized hinges, latch failures, and post problems, the full scope is covered on our dedicated page. Gate Repair in Pomona
Electric Gate Repair in Pomona
Electric gate repair is a core competency for us, not an add-on. In Pomona, control boards and safety sensors sit in direct inland sun and heat, which ages capacitors and wiring faster than in cooler coastal areas. We service motors, control boards, loop detectors, safety sensors, and access-control integration across major brands including Viking, DoorKing, and Elite. Your operator gets diagnosed on-site by a technician who knows that brand’s common failure points. Electric Gate Repair in Pomona

Gate Installation in Pomona
Gate installation in Pomona starts with the gate itself, but the job is rarely just hanging a panel. On post-war tract lots, driveway widths vary, and the existing posts are often undersized or dry-rotted at the base. Inland sun and Santa Ana winds demand materials and finishes that won’t fail in three years. A new gate needs to be matched to the operator, the post footings, and the way the property actually drains and settles. That’s the work we do. For a deeper look at the installation process across all styles, see our Gate Installation service page.
Automatic Gate Installation
Signs you need it
You want a gate that opens from the car or phone instead of getting out to swing it by hand, or your existing operator is beyond economical repair.
What it costs in Pomona
Automatic gate installation in Pomona typically runs $2,500 to $12,000+ depending on gate size, operator type, and site work.
How we do it
We measure the driveway and posts, pull the power requirements, set or reset posts as needed, install the operator and safety edges, program remotes, and test full open-close cycles.
Driveway Gate Installation
Signs you need it
Your existing driveway gate sags past the latch point, the posts lean, or the panel itself is rusted, split, or no longer matches the property.
What it costs in Pomona
Driveway gate installation in Pomona typically runs $2,000 to $10,000+ depending on material, width, finish, and whether posts and an operator are included.
How we do it
We remove the old gate, check and reset posts, hang the new panel on heavy-duty hinges with proper clearances, and confirm the latch and stops work before we leave.
Sliding Gate Installation
Signs you need it
Your driveway slopes or your front setback is too short for a swing gate, so a track-mounted or cantilever sliding gate is the only layout that works.
What it costs in Pomona
Sliding gate installation in Pomona typically runs $3,000 to $12,000+ depending on track style, gate length, motor, and foundation work.
How we do it
We lay out the track or cantilever support, pour or anchor the base, hang the panel, align the rollers, install the operator and safety devices, and adjust travel limits.

Do I need a permit for gate installation in Pomona?
Most residential gate installations don’t require a city permit, but HOA rules and front setback standards can add requirements. We check local requirements during the measure and flag anything that needs city or HOA approval before you commit.
How long does a Pomona gate installation take?
Most single driveway gates are installed in one day, with operator and safety programming completed the same visit. Custom gates or jobs requiring new posts, concrete, or electrical work typically take two to three days. Call (855) 707-3634 for a realistic timeline on your specific site.

What Pomona Customers Say
"Control board fried after a lightning storm. He showed me the burn mark on it, quoted the board, and installed a surge protector on the line so it hopefully doesn't happen again."
— Riya Shah"Our slide gate had been dragging for months and getting worse. Turned out the chain was stretched and one of the guide rollers had seized. Both replaced, and he adjusted the limits so it stops properly at both ends now."
— Ramon Rodriguez"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."
