"They were able to start the job a couple days after I signed and they finished the gate job without any issues. I would hire them again if I decide to do more with vinyl fencing in the future"

"My liftmaster sliding gate motor died after only three years due to electrical issues.  I was very upset to have to replace it and received several completely inflated quotes.  I found Oren on Angie's List and Yelp and discovered that all of his amazing reviews are completely accurate. You can TRUST this guy! Oren was an excellent communicator who provided a very reasonable wrote, excellent service, and exemplary communication through out the process. I just wish he did all kids if contacting, I would hire him or anything and everything due to his superior work ethic.

"Best of 5 quotes. Quick turnaround and communication was very easy. The prices are excellent because they are efficient with skilled management. I'm a single female and have appreciated working with David and his crew. Their honest and direct approach have made this a stress-free process, and I love my new gates! I even had an issue with electricity from my house, and they did extra work and replaced a battery at no additional charge. High integrity people who go above and beyond"

"ADU Garage Conversion is not an easy task so I contacted several recommended contractors to see their offers. The best offer came from LA Expert Builders and at our first meeting Nir was extremely professional, knowledgeable and honest. The project started on scheduled date, went very smooth thanks to Nir and his great crew. They did everything as I requested and final product is excellent. I am fully satisfied with Nir and LA Expert Builders and would definitely work with them again!"

"I have been nothing but happy with America Green Builders. We got our system installed on March 2017 and the whole process from beginning to end was so easy and smooth. The representatives kept us informed every step of the way through the application process, filing for the permit and scheduling the installation. On the day of the installation, the trucks pulled up right on time and got to work. Since it looked like it was going to rain the next day, they got more installers to come later in the afternoon to finish the job in one day. The solar array is beautiful, neat and clean, and you can''t see any pipes at all. They left my yard and driveway clean. I can't believe how much energy I'm generating and my bills since March have been $12 or less every month. I highly recommend America Green Builders and I am more than happy that I chose them."

"I was very pleased with Steve. I called at 1pm to for an estimate he gave me a reasonable price for the work. He gave me a same day appointment for 2:30p.m which he arrived early for. He was very charismatic, fast and professional. He completed the work in a matter of minutes. The garage door was working perfectly fine. He explained what he changed, why and answered all my questions. He demonstrated and taught me how to check that the garage door was balanced. I would definitely recommend him to family. He finished working and explaining everything by 3p.m.and I was able to continue my day."

"The concrete and gate install went relatively quickly. The patio cover required permits which took some time. Once received, the patio went up quick and the planter brick repair was also quick. Overall a good partnership that I will hire again."

Driveway Gates questions, answered by experts

Ideally, a gate should be able to swing both in and out. However, if it can only open in one direction, it is generally best for it to swing inward. This is often the safest option, especially for deck gates near steps, as you'll want the gate to swing away from the stairs. An inward swing also prevents the gate from opening into a public space, like a sidewalk, and can be more convenient when carrying heavy items like a wheelbarrow into a garden.

There are exceptions, however. The layout of your property may require a different approach. For example, if your property is on a slope, the gate may not be able to swing inward. You should also ensure the gate can open fully without colliding with any objects or blocking access to other areas. For a backyard garden gate where public access isn't a concern, the direction it swings is largely a matter of personal preference. Finally, always check your local building codes, as they may have specific requirements for which way a gate must swing.

A gate shouldn’t be higher or lower than the fence it's attached to. If the gate is lower than the fence, it encourages strangers to peek at your property. If the gate is higher than the fence, it just looks weird. Gates allow for increased security and aesthetics, so ensure the gate rests at the same height as the fence.

When choosing a driveway gate, consider the fence material, whether you want an automatic gate or a manual one, and property limitations like the slope of your driveway. We recommend speaking with a professional driveway gate installer to see what types of gates will work on your property based on your fencing or home’s exterior. Keep in mind that driveway gates should range between 10 to 12 feet wide to ensure cars can easily maneuver through the gateway.

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.
