Mr-Glass Fence Installation: The Dallas Owner’s Guide
We stock and install Mr-Glass-compatible fence panels, posts, gates, and hardware across Dallas, with most complete fence installations running between $3,500 and $9,000 depending on linear footage and site conditions. We carry the common Mr-Glass post sizes, panel widths, and gate kits on our trucks, so most Dallas jobs get quoted and started within the same week. The typical call we get starts with a storm, a vehicle bump in an alley, or a post that finally gave out after years of North Texas clay shifting, and the owner wants to know if the Mr-Glass section can be matched without redoing the whole run. It almost always can.
Which Mr-Glass Models This Applies To
Mr-Glass fence systems in Dallas fall into a few repeating configurations: 6-foot and 8-foot panel widths, standard 2-inch and 2.5-inch square posts, and gate openings from 4 feet up to 12 feet for double-drive gates. The part you need depends on what failed, and that’s where we start: we measure the actual post dimensions, panel height, and picket spacing on site before ordering or pulling anything. A 2-inch post cap from a 2015 install will not seat on a 2.5-inch post from a 2020 run, and that’s exactly the kind of mismatch that shows up when a homeowner orders parts online without measuring. We also flag this: Mr-Glass changed its gate hinge plate spacing on some series around 2018, so if your gate sags but the post is fine, the fix is often a current-series hinge kit rather than a new gate. We keep OEM Mr-Glass hardware and quality aftermarket equivalents where the aftermarket part actually outperforms or installs cleaner; for structural posts and gate frames, we push OEM. For caps, pickets, and tension bands, a well-made aftermarket part saves real money without giving up anything.
Styles & brands we work with







Signs Your Mr-Glass Fence Installation Is Failing
- Post leaning at the base. Dallas clay shrinks in summer and swells in wet winters, and a post set shallow or in a deteriorating concrete collar will start to list. You’ll see a gap opening between the post and the surrounding soil or concrete, usually worse after a dry spell.
- Gate dragging or latching off-center. The hinge plates stretch, the post shifts, or the gate frame itself has twisted. A dragging gate grinds the bottom rail, and a latch that no longer lines up means one of the three has moved enough to matter.
- Panel sections bowing between posts. The horizontal rails inside a Mr-Glass panel can warp over time, especially on west-facing runs that take full Dallas afternoon sun. The panel starts to look like a shallow “C” and picks up a creak when the wind loads it.
- Rusted-through post bases or hardware. Sprinkler overspray and pooled water at the post line will eat galvanized hardware faster than anything else in Dallas. If you see orange staining at the post base, the steel underneath is thinner than it looks.
- Pickets cracking or separating from rails. The fasteners or the picket material itself has given up, usually after years of expansion and contraction. One or two loose pickets is a repair. Thirty loose pickets is a replacement conversation.

AfterReplacement Cost & What’s Included
A full Mr-Glass-style fence installation in Dallas runs $3,500 to $9,000 installed, and the spread comes down to linear footage, gate count, post depth, and whether we’re matching existing sections or setting an entire run. A straight 100-foot run with one gate lands toward the lower end; a 200-foot replacement with two drive gates, removal of old concrete footings, and a property line that isn’t square lands at the top. The line-item price we give you separates materials, labor, removal and haul-off, and gate hardware, so you see exactly what you’re paying for before any work starts. That price is in writing and it does not move. Every fence installation we complete in Dallas carries the 365-Day Done Right Promise: if anything we set fails inside a year, we return and correct it at no charge.
DIY or Call Us?
There are a few things any Dallas homeowner can safely check: whether the post is plumb, whether the gate hinges are tight, whether the pickets are loose at the screws, and whether water is pooling at the post bases. What you should not do is reset a set-in-concrete post by yourself, cut out a rotted post base with a grinder while the panel is still attached, or re-tension a sagging gate with the hinges live. A loaded gate under tension, especially a double drive gate, stores enough energy to break a hand or worse if it lets go. If the failure is a picket, a cap, or a hinge plate, that’s a reasonable weekend fix with the right hardware. If the post itself has moved or rotted, call us at (903) 326-8963 and we’ll get it quoted straight.
FAQs

A properly set Mr-Glass-style fence in Dallas lasts 20 to 25 years on the steel and hardware, though posts in constant sprinkler spray or at low points that hold water can fail in 10 to 12. Call (903) 326-8963 and we’ll tell you in the first visit whether you’re looking at a repair or a replacement run.
Yes, in most cases the failed part, a post, a gate hinge, a section of pickets, can be swapped without replacing the entire run, as long as the adjacent posts are sound. We price the repair as a repair, not as a smaller version of a full replacement. Call (903) 326-8963 for a written line-item quote.
Most Mr-Glass fence repairs are done in a single day, and a full 100- to 150-foot installation with one gate typically runs three to four days including footing concrete cure time. Weather and inspection scheduling can add days, and we’ll put the full timeline in writing before we start.
We stock the most common Mr-Glass post caps, hinge kits, latch assemblies, picket profiles, and tension hardware on our trucks, along with the aftermarket equivalents we trust for non-structural parts. If the part is unusual, we source it and schedule the repair once it’s in hand, not before.
