"Guillermo did an incredible job on our gate. There was existing fence in the spot we wanted the gate and we asked him to use the existing material for the gate build. The gate looks great and works perfectly. He was on time, responsive and we will absolutely hire him again for our next fencing project! The pricing was also unbeatable compared to 4 other quotes. You will not regret using GD Fence."

"Finally an honest Solar company!! I went through several companies trying to get quotes for one of my properties, either they were ridiculously expensive or they didn't return my calls. A friend of mine referred me to Mega Sun and I have to say I am very pleased. Within a couple days from the initial phone call I already had an estimate and once i decided to go with them the installation was completed in one week. Its been a little over a month since they completed the install and everything is working smoothly.

I was amazed at just how great the customer service was. I just want to say thank you to the whole team who helped out, I really appreciate all your hard work. Now I know you guys are the ones to call for all future jobs."

I purchased a big deal for this service and it worked out good. I just did not really jell with the designer so I did not use them. I did not like his ideas and did not like how they threw out the dollar amount for the project without knowing what I wanted to do. They are good, but it just did not work for me.

"Job started on a Friday and extended into Monday due to difficulty of digging fence posts in rocky terrain. In addition, the gate ordered for the front was the wrong color. Later in the day, a new gate was fabricated and delivered but it was the wrong size. Unfortunately the job was not completed until Monday which meant we had no gate to secure our property over the weekend. Our job supervisor and his entire team were kind and professional. Would recommend even though there were some disappointing issues. No contractor is perfect every day."

"I recently had the pleasure of working with AIO Garage Door and Gates for the installation of a new driveway gate with a gate operator, and I couldn't be happier with the result. From start to finish, the team at AIO Garage Door and Gates provided exceptional service. They helped me choose the perfect design for my stainless steel gate, ensuring it was both stylish and functional. Additionally, they worked closely with me to stay within my budget, which I greatly appreciated. The installation process was smooth and efficient, and the end result exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend AIO Garage Door and Gates to anyone in need of quality gate installation services. Five stars all around!"

"We were very happy with the work and especially with how respectful and efficient the handyman assigned to us was. Rob showed up on time and went right to work hitting each item on the list we gave him. He turned his cell phone off and refused to take a break while he was ticking away at the contracted 4 hours. He cleaned up after himself - something I have had other contractors neglect! We will use this company again.

Driveway Gates questions, answered by experts

Fence gates sag because they have no support on the latch side of the gate to help hold them aloft. A gate wheel fixes that problem by providing support for that latch side. Remember that the ground must be level in front of the gate so the wheel can roll freely when you open and close it. If the terrain is uneven or slopes, a gate wheel won’t work.

Hiring a reliable gate company starts by finding an installer with at least five years of experience in your area. This method will ensure they understand local laws and regulations and are familiar with the permitting process. You can also ask the following questions to ensure a smooth installation:

  • Have you worked with my gate material in the past?

  • Do you have customer references I can call?

  • Are you fully insured?

  • Will you pull the necessary permits for the installation?

  • Do you provide any kind of warranty for the gate’s functionality?

Driveway gates can last anywhere from 10 to 30 years, depending on how well you maintain your gate, the material type, how frequently you use it, and whether you choose an automatic or manual gate. Automatic gates generally require more maintenance than manual gates due to their added sliding gate mechanisms, which can go out from frequent use.

Yes, many providers offer reinforced steel, fire-rated, and electronic access doors for businesses.

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.
