"From the time Matt showed up at my house to provide an estimate to the completion of our roofing project, I have been completely impressed with Prime Management professionalism, quality and service. They exceeded my expectations in terms of finished work and left my yard and driveway cleaner than when they came. They excelled in their communication. Their team was friendly and man were they hard working. They put in 12 hour days to get the job done. Also, with a job this large, you always expect some issue or a hidden charge here and there or something - there was none of that, there bill reflected the estimate provided. I highly recommend this company - you will be impressed with their work."

"I am pleased with the final product, but the process to get there wasn't always what I expected. Several things we had to ask to be redone/improved, and they were. Working at the beginning of COVID season, so he was struggling to have a full work crew. I would use him again, but would ask him to develop a highly planned schedule so I wouldn't wonder he was *just winging it" The final product was great, but I did have some stress and worry along the way."

Driveway Gates questions, answered by experts

While it is possible to install a manual gate yourself, it is generally not recommended. Professional installation is strongly advised, especially for automated or large driveway gates. Gates can be extremely heavy, sometimes weighing hundreds of pounds, which makes them bulky and dangerous to maneuver into place. Proper installation requires perfect positioning and balancing to ensure the gate swings smoothly and functions as intended. For automated gates, the wiring is also hazardous and typically requires a licensed electrician. Mistakes during a DIY installation can be costly, as materials alone can average around $1,000. Given the safety risks and the difficulty of achieving a proper setup, it is best to hire a professional gate installer.

Yes, driveway gates can help secure your home by deterring burglars from accessing your property. Climbing a gate slows down burglars while also attracting attention to your gate. If you live further down your property and want to increase security, you can also install a gate security camera that connects to your gate and monitors the area for suspicious activity.

Hiring a reliable gate company starts by finding an installer with at least five years of experience in your area. This method will ensure they understand local laws and regulations and are familiar with the permitting process. You can also ask the following questions to ensure a smooth installation:

  • Have you worked with my gate material in the past?

  • Do you have customer references I can call?

  • Are you fully insured?

  • Will you pull the necessary permits for the installation?

  • Do you provide any kind of warranty for the gate’s functionality?

Electric gates can be forced open if someone applies enough force to the edge furthest from the mounting bracket. You can reduce this risk by adding an electric lock to your gate opener. However, automatic gate openers generally help deter intruders, especially when paired with outdoor lighting and security cameras. Other home security tips include trimming trees surrounding the area for added visibility and installing motion sensors in your yard.

Instead of a security door, you might opt for a heavy-duty screen door made from durable mesh, which allows better sunlight and airflow. Additionally, you could enhance security by installing strong locks on your existing door. A double-cylinder deadbolt provides robust security; however, be aware that some local laws prohibit them due to safety concerns during emergencies.
