"The guys that laid the floors for me helped me allot with putting things back, they did my closet for my clothes and neatly put things in there to where I could fit more in then before because they were so detailed. Orderly, and took their time to answer all of my questions. They cleaned up and took away all the mess in the yard."

"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"

"The Big Box stores could provide only the standard stockade or vinyl fencing and were not easy with whom to deal - they were also much more expensive and disdainful of a small jog (approx 65' with 2 gates). Hector a t Fence Pros was helpful and courteous and helped us decide on a unique and beautiful black bamboo and redwood fence. The result is a beautiful fence at a great price. One of the two gates does not fit as closely as it should and leaves a gap I didn't want, but we are so happy with the rest of the work that it seems a minor complaint."

"They were great. We had called several other gate companies on Angie's list and my husband explicitly explained what the problem was and they all quoted $150-$250 dollars. This company charged us $95 and came the same day we called.

"Matt is professional, pleasant and easy to communicate with and he answered all my questions. I knew he would get the job done right and did a great job! He had the job done in a timely manner and the price was reasonable. We are very happy with Matt, Miguel and the team for the garage door and it’s installation. I would definitely hire them again, as well as highly recommend them. Thank you Matt!"

Driveway Gates questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

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.

Electric gates can be forced open if someone applies enough force to the edge furthest from the mounting bracket. You can reduce this risk by adding an electric lock to your gate opener. However, automatic gate openers generally help deter intruders, especially when paired with outdoor lighting and security cameras. Other home security tips include trimming trees surrounding the area for added visibility and installing motion sensors in your yard.

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.
