"We give LUCAS FENCING a 9 out of 10.  We would definitely use them again.  Here are the pros and cons we had with this experience.
PROS:
  Tom Lucas is very friendly, promptly returns messages and phone calls, and keeps appointments.
  He and his crew did excellent quality work without wasting any time.  They arrived promptly on the scheduled day.
  He had no problem with minor changes we had while the fence was being repaired.
  He is trustworthy; he came back for the old posts just like he said he would, and honored the Angie's List discount when it was 
    forgotten on an amended invoice.
  
CONS:
  It took awhile for us to get a scheduled date, farther out than expected (2 weeks vs 5 weeks).  His timetable was affected by the
    bad weather we were experiencing, so it wasn't a major issue. 
  He had to come back for the old posts instead of taking them that day due to the existing weight on his truck.  He did pick them up
    as promised 2 days later.
9/10.  Thanks Tom!

"I saw a coupon for installation of a Viper toilet.  After doing some research on this brand I decided to get 2 for my home.  They work great and the installer was so professional.  They appeared promptly when they were scheduled to and did a great job.  They disposed of the old toilets and cleaned up the work area when they were done.  We loved the toilets and firm so much that we bought 2 more toilets for another property.  After a couple of months, one of the toilets started to "run".  They came back out and explained to me how pieces of the Clorox tablets I was using in the tank was getting caught under the flapper.  They did not charge me for this service call.  I highly recommend 24/7 Plumbing and I would not hesitate to use the for any plumbing needs in the future.

"The Rosa team did a great job erecting our new 6 ft fence including a difficult section going up a sharp rise. They cleaned up very well and will return tomorrow to spray paint our new fence to preserve it against the elements. Fair price and great work."

Gate Repair questions, answered by experts

Installation typically takes 1-3 days, depending on the gate type and site conditions.

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?

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.

A sliding gate, or a sliding gate door, is a versatile gate system used for various applications. Sliding gate mechanisms allow the gate to move horizontally along a track or guide system when opened or closed. They come in multiple types, including sliding folding gates, telescopic gates, cantilever gates, and track sliding gates. These gates are known for their durability, ease of installation, and user-friendly operation, making them popular for property access and security.

While it is possible to install a manual gate yourself, it is generally not recommended. Professional installation is strongly advised, especially for automated or large driveway gates. Gates can be extremely heavy, sometimes weighing hundreds of pounds, which makes them bulky and dangerous to maneuver into place. Proper installation requires perfect positioning and balancing to ensure the gate swings smoothly and functions as intended. For automated gates, the wiring is also hazardous and typically requires a licensed electrician. Mistakes during a DIY installation can be costly, as materials alone can average around $1,000. Given the safety risks and the difficulty of achieving a proper setup, it is best to hire a professional gate installer.
