Built by our own crew in Kemah
Kemah projects along Highway 146 and the Kemah Boardwalk need details chosen for the property, not a one-size-fits-all package. Automatic gates add convenience and enhanced security to your property. We install automatic gate openers on new and existing gates, with control options including remote control, keypad entry, smartphone apps, and intercom systems. We work with leading automation brands and offer both swing and sliding gate operators for residential and commercial applications. Kemah's small lots and waterfront setbacks limit fence placement options — we maximize usable outdoor space with careful layout planning.
Kemah is in Galveston County, and automatic gates permits here go through the Kemah Building Department — we file them. Most of our Kemah work sits off Highway 146 and the Kemah Boardwalk, on waterfront and canal-front homes exposed to constant salt air, and Kemah installs carry marine-grade hardware by default.
Kemah's bayfront soil is sandy and salt-saturated, requiring marine-grade materials for any metal fence component. Kemah also sees constant salt air exposure from Galveston Bay — the most corrosive environment in our service area, which is why every automatic gates we build here sits on galvanized steel posts set in concrete. Aluminum and vinyl fencing exclusively — iron and standard steel corrode too quickly in Kemah's salt air.
Recent automatic gates work across Kemah — including Waterford Harbor, Kemah Boardwalk District — with HOA specs pulled before we quote.
Types of gate automation in Kemah
Galveston County conditions shape how we specify this work for Kemah homeowners. The operator, the power source and the access control are three separate decisions — here's how they break down. We coordinate requirements with the Kemah Building Department before the build begins.
LiftMaster / linear armKemah projects along Highway 146 and the Kemah Boardwalk need details chosen for the property, not a one-size-fits-all package. Linear or articulated arm operators sized to leaf weight and width, with soft-start to stop the gate hammering itself apart.

No trenchingIn Kemah, we measure the site first and plan the build around waterfront and canal-front homes exposed to constant salt air.

Our crew reaches Kemah via Highway 146 and the Kemah Boardwalk, which keeps measures and follow-up visits on a local schedule.
Access controlGalveston County conditions shape how we specify this work for Kemah homeowners. Coded keypads, video intercoms, remotes and cellular call boxes so guests, deliveries and crews can get in without you at the gate. We coordinate requirements with the Kemah Building Department before the build begins.
Required safetyFor Kemah properties near the Kemah Boardwalk and Clear Lake Channel, the design starts with waterfront and canal-front homes exposed to constant salt air. Exit loops, safety loops and photo-eye sensors so the gate reverses for a car, a kid or a dog. Non-negotiable on every automation we install.

“My 25 yo cedar fence was partially destroyed by Hurricane Beryl so I decided to replace the entire section of fence. I contacted several fence companies but only Kyle at 360Fence & Deck responded quickly with a willingness to measure the section and provide an estimate within the next 2 days. The estimate was lower than previous quotes and I was impressed with Kyle's customer service. They completed the job within 3 days and I am very satisfied with the results. I was very grateful they built the new fence without harming existing landscaping growing on the old fence. Clearly these guys are excellent craftsmen with the appearance and quality adhering to very high standards. Kyle was very helpful in answering my questions and concerns. I would definitely use 360Fence & Deck co for future work and I strongly recommend them to others.”
