Pierce Fence Company has served the Delmarva Peninsula for more than 45 years. Mr. William E. Pierce was the first president of Pierce Fence. He retired after 28 years in the fencing business. Presently, it is owned and operated by William's son Bob Pierce Sr. and grandson Bob Pierce Jr. It has been a family owned and operated company since it was established in 1969. We are proud to say Pierce Fence has been in the same location on DuPont Hwy since the beginning. The small office we started with has now expanded to a shop to produce custom vinyl and full of hard to find chain link parts. We have a large display of samples on location as well. At Pierce Fence we understand the dedication and commitment it takes in the business.

"Amazing! Start to finish and everything in between. The grandfather, Bob, came to do the quote and the son, Blake as well as Donnie, installed. Ran into an issue with our sprinkler head in the way (our fault!) and we were able to fix it real quick before they started. They ask if we were happy with each step and the final outcome. 100% would recommend and have already given several people their number. Wonderful family business!"

Driveway Gates questions, answered by experts

Most exterior doors swing inward for better security. But a security door will swing outward. What makes it so secure are the one-way screws that go through the door, the door frame or house wall, and into the home. Make sure to align your door so it swings outward, with the door handle aligned with the existing door’s handle.

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.

Generally, the standard 10- to 12-inch-long and 1- to 1.5-inch-diameter gate springs will work. However, if you have an especially wide, thick, or heavy garden gate, you may need to opt for a longer, broader—and pricier—model to ensure secure closure and good longevity. These typically range between 12 and 16 inches long and are over 1.5 inches in diameter.

Thieves can open almost anything with enough time and the right tools, but they also prefer easy targets that are unlikely to get them caught. Forcing open gates is loud and difficult, and to be able to open one electronically requires extensive knowledge of the system, which most thieves don't have. Electric and other security gates are great deterrents because the thief will move to an easier target. If the thief is determined to enter your property, they will most likely find a different entrance point.

For homeowners concerned about security, an electric gate may offer peace of mind. Electric gates will require a code or remote to open, so you don’t have to worry about young children getting out of the yard or someone breaking onto your property by simply swinging open the gate. But because it needs power to operate, installing an electric gate will be more complex and expensive.
