"10 stars, superior service. The quality of materials used was great, they started early and finished earlier than projected. After the job was under way I decided to go for the upgraded gate option at their suggestion and I am very happy that I did. I have recommended them to anyone who has seen or asked about my gate. The quality and appearance is great, He showed up when he said he would and was willing to do anything to make me happy."

"Moses and his team at MANDA Fences and Gates are awesome. We’ve needed to replace our two side walkway wrought iron gates and a side fence for a few years and have struggled to find a company that could design gates and fences that are beautiful, add value to our house and are top quality. A neighbor recently used MANDA so we got a referral from them and couldn’t be happier with the end product and the entire process. Moses was helpful, timely and efficient from the initial design proposal (and suggestions) through fabrication, installation and follow up. His installation crew was thorough, friendly and knowledgeable. Overall, we would highly recommend MANDA and hope to have the opportunity to work with them again in the future!!"

"My new fence and gate turned out even better than expected. The owner really listened to me, and designed a fence that is both beautiful and protects my small animals from the coyotes that now roam the neighborhood. The workers did a great job, cleaned up after themselves, and finished the job in time. The price was reasonable, I think, for a beautiful custom fence and gate, with a combination lock."

Gate Repair 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.

It can cost $100 to $500 to purchase and install a gate opener. You can use ready-made kits that come with DIY instructions. If you hire a professional gate installer to handle the job, expect to pay an average of $100 per hour or between $200 and $500.

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 obvious disadvantage of an automatic gate is that it runs on electricity. If the power goes out, it won’t open or close unless there’s a manual override. Many homeowners will need a backup generator so they don’t get stuck on either side of the gate, particularly when looking to park a vehicle. Automatic gates are also much more complicated than manual gates, with tech-heavy components that make them more expensive to repair.

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.
