"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"

I didn't find Patios By B & B on Angie's List but I am very happy that I hired them.  Jeff Goldman met with my wife and I on a Wednesday morning and showed us samples of materials and gave us lots of options for designs for our patio.  He was very thorough and didn't place any pressure on us.  We felt comfortable hiring Jeff that same day.  He was even able to complete our cover that same Friday and was done in one day.  I asked them to return to install some drop shades and they did the following week.  The crew lead, Jose Cancino, was clean, efficient and helpful.  We are very pleased with the outcome and would recommend them to anyone looking for a professional company that cares about their customers.

Driveway Gates questions, answered by experts

Assuming the site is prepped and you have all the tools and materials ready, you should budget the better part of a day to build a driveway gate. This can depend on your DIY experience and which materials you’ve chosen, such as building from scratch or using a prefabricated option. The gate size and finishing touches, like painting or staining, can also add to the overall time budget.

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.

Thieves can open almost anything with enough time and the right tools, but they also prefer easy targets that are unlikely to get them caught. Forcing open gates is loud and difficult, and to be able to open one electronically requires extensive knowledge of the system, which most thieves don't have. Electric and other security gates are great deterrents because the thief will move to an easier target. If the thief is determined to enter your property, they will most likely find a different entrance point.

When making this decision, three essential factors come into play. For budget-conscious individuals, swing gates are the more economical choice. Despite the possibility of both gate types having similar dimensions, many types of sliding gates demand a more intricate opening mechanism and additional components, requiring electrical work for motors and signaling remotes, resulting in higher installation costs.
