"Honest, good work at a fair price. Options were presented with pros/cons and pricing, allowing us to make an educated decision. The installation team was on time, very meticulous and friendly. They worked fast and clean, removing all debris from the property, daily. All work was inspected and tested by the owner of the company upon completion. We are beyond happy with the product and installation. It is the first time in 11 years that we have garage doors that actually seal to the floor!"

"Pat returned my call immediately and ended up coming out to repair my gate the same day! This was after waiting for a call back from the fence company who originally did all our fences and gates...I waited 6 days with no call back. Thank goodness for Pat and his son! The ended up having to saw off the hinge welds because one of the hinges was not moving much. The gate was repaired and welded back on in about 90 minutes! I was so impressed with his reasonable pricing and professionalism. I am going to have him do two other new projects that I was going to give my original fencing contractor."

"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.

Driveway Gates questions, answered by experts

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.

Your gate should be 3/4 to an inch smaller than the opening. The opening size that you need for your gate can vary depending on your hinge type. You may also need to add reinforcing braces if the gap between your gate and the fence is not uniform from top to bottom.

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.

Yes, professionals can install gates with locking mechanisms and access control systems for added security.

It does matter which way a hinge is installed because it’s possible to install a hinge backward. The hinge pin should face the direction in which the door will swing, making the pin visible. Exterior doors that swing outward need a security hinge with an Allen set screw in the center to prevent someone from removing the hinge from the outside and accessing the home or business.
