Gates that control who gets in.
AllStar Innovation LLC builds gates and installs access control for homeowners and businesses across the Bloomington area. Custom driveway gates, automatic openers, swing and slide gates, walk gates, and security entries, with more than 15 years of hands-on experience behind every job.
This is an owner-operated, fully insured business. Brad runs it himself, lives in the area, and you can call him directly. We set the posts, hang the gate, wire the opener, and stand behind the work. A gate is only as good as the posts it hangs on, and we do not rush that part.
We serve Bloomington, Ellettsville, Linton, Bedford, Spencer, and the surrounding area. Whether you want a simple driveway gate or a full automatic security entry, reach out. Estimates are free, and you will get a straight answer about what your project actually takes.

Gate Service
Custom Driveway Gates
A driveway gate sets the tone for the whole property. It adds privacy, controls who pulls in, and gives the entrance a finished, intentional look. We build custom driveway gates sized and styled to fit the home and the opening.
Gates are built to the width of the drive and the look you want, from clean and simple to more decorative. Posts are set deep and solid, because a gate is only as good as what it hangs on. A sagging gate almost always traces back to weak posts.
Whether the gate is mainly about curb appeal, privacy, or keeping vehicles out, we will walk the entrance with you and build something that fits.
Gate Service
Automatic Gate Openers
An automatic opener turns a driveway gate into something you actually use every day. Instead of getting out in the rain to swing a gate, you open it from the vehicle and it closes behind you.
We install openers matched to the gate, the opening, and how often it is used. Options include keypad entry, remotes, and other controls depending on what makes sense for the property. Power and layout are planned for consistent, dependable operation.
If you already have a gate and want to automate it, or you are planning a new gate from scratch, we will go over the options that fit your setup and your budget.
Gate Service
Swing & Slide Gates
Driveway gates open one of two ways, and the right choice comes down to the space you have. Swing gates pivot open like a door and suit drives with room to clear. Slide gates roll to the side and work well where a swing would not have room or where the drive sits on a slope.
We build both, sized to the opening and built to track and swing smoothly. The style of the gate is yours to choose. The mechanism is matched to the site.
Not sure which way your gate should open? We will look at the drive, the grade, and the surroundings and tell you straight which setup makes sense.
Gate Service
Walk Gates & Entry Gates
A walk gate is the everyday entry point, the one used far more than any other gate on the property. We build walk gates that latch clean, swing true, and are built for daily use.
Entry gates also set the look of a yard or a front walk. Whether it is a simple gate in a fence line or a more decorative entrance, we build it square and hang it on posts set solid.
Walk gates are part of most fence projects, and we also build and replace them on their own. A gate that drags or will not latch is usually a quick, worthwhile fix.
Gate Service
Security Entry Gates
For businesses, fenced lots, and properties that need real control over access, a security entry gate does more than mark the entrance. It is built heavier, reinforced, and set up to limit who gets through.
Security gates pair with access control like keypads and remotes so entry is managed rather than left open. We plan the gate around how the property is actually used, so it reinforces the entrance and manages access without slowing down the people who belong there.
Every security gate job starts with a look at the property and the access points. We build to the actual need instead of overselling.
Gate Service
Gate Repairs & Upgrades
Gates take daily wear, and over time they sag, drag, stop latching, or the opener quits. Often the fix is straightforward. We repair gates that have dropped, rehang ones on failing posts, and replace hardware that has worn out.
Upgrades are common too, like adding an automatic opener to a gate that has always been manual, or replacing a tired gate while keeping the posts. We will tell you straight whether a repair or a replacement is the better call.
If your gate is not working the way it should, reach out and we will take a look.

Common Questions
Gate questions, answered straight.
How much does a driveway gate cost in Bloomington, IN?
Gate pricing depends on the size of the opening, the style, the material, and whether you want it automated. A simple manual gate and an automatic security entry are very different projects. We give you a real number after we look at the entrance, and the estimate is free.
Can you automate a gate I already have?
Often, yes. If your existing gate and posts are sound, we can add an opener and controls to it. If the posts are weak or the gate is failing, we will tell you straight, because an opener only works as well as the gate it is on.
Should I get a swing gate or a slide gate?
It depends on the space. Swing gates need room to clear as they open, while slide gates roll to the side and work well on tight or sloped drives. We will look at your driveway and tell you which setup fits.
What access control options can I add?
Driveway and security gates can be set up with keypads, remotes, and other controls depending on how the property is used. We will go over the options that make sense for your setup during the estimate.
Why does my gate sag or drag?
A sagging or dragging gate almost always traces back to the posts. If the posts were not set deep and solid, the gate drops over time. We rehang gates and reset posts, and in most cases that gets the gate swinging true again.
Do gates come with a fence install?
Walk gates are planned into most fence layouts, and we go over gate options and placement during your estimate. For automatic and driveway gates, this page covers what we offer. See our Fencing services for fence projects.
