"Isaiah came to give an estimate to fix our Iron gates, I liked it, and he fixed it right away. It was good work. Later that same day, I found out that our gate latch is not staying in tact easily which he fixed. I left him a message to come back to adjust the latch but I haven't heard from him. For time being it is okay, but the latch needs to be re-adjusted a bit, so I hope he comes back to fix it."

"My neighbors were very unhappy with the way he pruned the trees. That is the one I guess I wasn't able to be here at the time. I may be scheduled for the work to be done in May and that's when I wasn't home, later in May. It ended up being more and you are going to ask me how much and I don't remember. They did a good job but they just hacked at the trees.  I wasn't here to supervise them. If I had been here, then they probably wouldn't have done some hacking on the trees that they did.  I think they were responsive and professional."

"His timing was perfect for both our needs. Eric was quick, efficient, and very understandable in regards to explaining what repairs were needed and why. I was able to use the 15% coupon he had listed in his Angie's listing, awesome. He gave me an approximate cost before he came over to my house and then a better estimate after he looked at the garage doors, so I had a very good idea of what I would be spending for his work. He did a great job! Thanks Eric!

"We bought a fixer upper and wanted to start remodeling immediately, before we moved in since there is no way we could have lived in the house during construction.  We used various forms of referrals to find a general contractor and after a long process we chose TerraVenti because Yaron, the owner, was very knowledgeable, professional, and had the attention to detail that we liked, compared to the others.  We had multiple meetings with Yaron, the engineer and designer until we agreed on the design and plans.  They did all the legwork, pulled all the permits and got all the approvals.   

 

When we went to view the work at the house multiple times and the crew was always working hard and supervised.  The project finished around the time of the proposed timeline. We asked for some extra work to be done, so the completion date was extended a few weeks.   

 

The scope of the project was large, but they handled it very well and they were on top of everything.  Yaron was easy to contact and communicate with, either by phone, text or email and he was always very responsive.  We appreciate Yaron and his crew and we are so grateful to have found TerraVenti.  The project was successful. We definitely recommend them!

Gate Repair questions, answered by experts

The cost to install a gate varies widely, with a typical range between $1,500 and $7,000. The average cost is around $3,500. However, the final price can be as low as $200 for a simple gate or as high as $12,000 for a large, automated security gate.

Key factors that determine the installation cost include:

  • Gate Material: This is a primary cost factor. Chain-link and vinyl are the most affordable, while wood and PVC are mid-range options. Wrought iron, aluminum, and other metals are the most expensive materials.

  • Automation: Automated gates are significantly more expensive than manual ones because they require motors, sensors, controls, and electrical installation.

  • Size and Type: The dimensions and style of the gate (e.g., swinging vs. sliding) will impact the price.

  • Security Level: Gates with advanced security features will increase the overall cost.

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.

Double gates come with the same gaps as single gates, with hinges taking up a quarter of an inch of space. The difference is that double fence gates also have a center gap, which needs a little more clearance. Space the center gap at half an inch instead of the usual three-eighths of an inch for a single gate. 

Driveway gates can last anywhere from 10 to 30 years, depending on how well you maintain your gate, the material type, how frequently you use it, and whether you choose an automatic or manual gate. Automatic gates generally require more maintenance than manual gates due to their added sliding gate mechanisms, which can go out from frequent use.

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.
