"I was the victim of vandalism. Someone apparently thinks it's cool to throw their body against garage doors to ruin them. Enjoy your permanent shoulder pain when you get old. A little reminder of me! So I called a vendor and got a good price. I called Elk Grove Overhead Doors to ask some more questions and to get a quote. They gave me a good price and since they were the local guys we went with them. Good choice. Zack and Joe came by to get some quick measurements and check things out. They came back in short order and got started extracting the cars from the garage. The doors went up and all was right again in no time. Zach and Joe were courteous and quick. Thanks so much guys and I hope to not need your services for a while. But I hope anyone else that does need garage servicing gives these folks a call. I have no regrets.

"It was emergency call , could not open my door. Paid too much for springs, oh well the repair person was at my house 8 am sharp and was done in one hour. Since my door would not open I had no leverage in negotiating the fee . Paid $ 600.00 Maybe $200.00 too much"

"I can't find enough kind words to say about Steve and All American Fencing! Steve actually did two projects for me recently and they both went super smooth and turned out exactly as I had asked and imagined. His attention to detail and professionalism is unparalleled, and he was very honest and upfront about the price and timing/length of project. I have another big fencing project coming up and I will no doubt be hiring him again...dude is solid!"

Driveway Gates FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, most electric and automatic gates can be opened manually. They are equipped with a manual override or release mechanism that detaches the motor from the gate, allowing it to be moved by hand. This feature is essential during power outages or other emergencies.

To activate the manual override, you will typically need a specific key or tool. In some cases, you may also need a screwdriver to remove a cover to access the release mechanism. The use of a key is a common security measure to prevent unauthorized individuals from manually opening the gate.

Because every model is different, it is highly recommended to consult your gate's user manual to familiarize yourself with the specific procedure before you need to use it. Keep any necessary keys or tools in an accessible location. Be aware that automatic gates can be very heavy, so opening and closing them manually may be difficult.

In North America, electric gates are also subject to the UL 325 Standard for Safety, which includes provisions to allow emergency responders to access the property.

The best direction for a gate to swing depends on its location and purpose, but swinging inward is the general rule. An inward swing is often considered safer, prevents the gate from opening into public spaces like a sidewalk, and may be required by local building codes.

There are exceptions and specific considerations. If your property is on a slope, an inward swing might not be possible. For a deck gate, it's safest to have it swing away from any steps. In a backyard, the direction can be a matter of preference, though an inward swing can be helpful when carrying heavy items like a wheelbarrow into a garden.

Regardless of direction, ensure the gate can open fully without hitting any objects or blocking spaces. While an inward swing is standard, a gate that can swing both in and out offers the most flexibility if your setup allows for it.

For homeowners concerned about security, an electric gate may offer peace of mind. Electric gates will require a code or remote to open, so you don’t have to worry about young children getting out of the yard or someone breaking onto your property by simply swinging open the gate. But because it needs power to operate, installing an electric gate will be more complex and expensive.

Locksmiths offer keyless entry systems, high-security locks, panic bars, electronic access control, and biometric security solutions.

Screen doors (sometimes called barrier doors) and security doors serve different primary functions. A screen door's main purpose is to allow airflow and keep pests out, featuring a lightweight frame and a mesh screen. A security door, however, is a heavy-duty structure designed to prevent unauthorized entry. Security doors are installed with permanent screws into the home's walls and are often equipped with deadbolts or other heavy-duty locking mechanisms for enhanced protection against intruders.
