Why Leon's
About Leon's Automatic Gates: a gate is a machine. Treat it like one.
A driveway gate opens and closes thousands of times a year, outdoors, in Pacific Northwest rain. The difference between a gate you love and a gate you fight is who built it, and whether they pick up the phone afterward.
Owner-operated, on both sides of the river
Leon's Automatic Gates & Security is a local, owner-operated company. The person who quotes your project is the person responsible for it on install day and every service call after. No call centers, no subcontracted crews.
Our headquarters and fabrication shop sit on Tualatin-Sherwood Road in Tualatin, Oregon. Custom gates, pedestrian gates, fencing, and railings get built there and installed across the Portland metro. Our Vancouver, Washington crew covers Clark County and southwest Washington, so a service call in Camas doesn't wait on a truck from Oregon.

The difference
What you get with Leon's vs. the usual options
| The moment | With Leon's | What you often get elsewhere |
|---|---|---|
| Who quotes the job | The person responsible for the work, on your property | A salesperson working from a price sheet |
| When a gate breaks | Diagnosis first. We repair what's fixable, on any brand | "It needs full replacement" is the default answer |
| Custom work | Fabricated in our own shop, matched to your property | Ordered from a catalog, installed by a sub |
| Both sides of the river | Licensed & insured in Oregon and Washington, crews in both metros | One state, plus a trip charge for the bridge |
| Years later | The same people who built it answer the phone | A call center that's never seen your gate |
How it works
From site visit to first open
Site visit & free estimate
We walk the property with you, measure the opening and slope, and give you a written quote. No obligation, no pressure.
Design & materials
You pick the style, material, and finish; we match the operator and access hardware to how you'll actually use the gate every day.
Installation
Posts set, gate hung, operator wired, safety sensors tested. We walk you through every remote, keypad, and app before we leave.
Service for the long haul
Gates live outdoors in Northwest weather. When yours needs a tune-up or a repair, even years later, you call the same people who built it.
