Q: What are the alternatives to a driveway gate?

• <div><p>A traditional driveway gate isn&rsquo;t your only option when installing a barricade in front of your driveway. A <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/types-of-security-gates.htm">security gate</a> like a swing gate, double swing gate, bi-folding gate, vertical gate, or pivot gate could work just as well as your driveway gate&mdash;if not better for your home depending on which qualities you&rsquo;re after. Like sliding driveway gates, many of these alternatives work with automatic features that simplify entering and exiting your property.</p></div>

Q: Can you walk or drive on pavers after sealing them?

• <div><p>You can walk on newly sealed pavers as long as they&rsquo;ve had enough time to dry and cure&mdash;typically after 24 hours for patios and walkways. Even so, don&rsquo;t rush it. Humidity, temperature, and the type of sealant you use can stretch that window up to 72 hours. Rushing it can leave footprints or even damage the finish, especially if the surface hasn&rsquo;t fully hardened. For driveways, wait at least three full days before parking or driving over them. Always check your sealant label for the most accurate timeline, since not all products cure the same way. </p></div>

Q: What types of designs can be created with interlocking pavers?

• <div><p>Pavers come in diverse shapes, colors, and patterns, allowing for varied creative designs, including contemporary or traditional layouts personalized to taste.</p></div>

Q: What type of driveway has the longest lifespan?

• <div><p>Gravel driveways last the longest. With proper installation and routine maintenance, they can last upwards of 100 years. To make sure they last as long as possible, gravel driveways should be properly graded and leveled during installation and repair. The natural material is extremely durable, but the grooves make it challenging to remove snow and easy for weeds to grow through the cracks. Still, this is nothing an afternoon DIY project can&rsquo;t fix and lends to the fact that their easy maintenance helps gravel driveways last even longer.</p></div>

Q: How much do interlocking pavers cost?

• <div><p>Depending on material and design complexity, costs range from $10 to $30 per square foot. Installation labor increases the total.</p></div>
