"What a great company! Competitive pricing, excellent service and timely communication. They removed an old (falling down) board fence and efficiently installed a new vinyl fence. They left an 8 ft section out to accommodate other work being done in my backyard and returned promptly to install the last section. I highly recommend Breakwater Fence!!!"

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

A DIY manual wooden gate costs $200 to $600 for a basic single-swing gate. If you want to hire a pro, a manual wood gate can cost $400 to $4,000. For automated wood gates, expect to pay $850 to $8,500.

Factors that affect price include the quality of materials, cost of labor, the height of the gate, and the type of gate you need.

If increased security is your bag, you may want to steer away from a simple wood gate. After all, it’s pretty easy to cut through wood. Instead, go for a metal gate with an advanced locking system. Even better? Install a high-tech automated barrier system similar to those found at commercial facilities. However, you’ll pay handsomely for the privilege.

There are a few possible issues that are causing your gate to sage. The hinges may be bent, or the screws holding the hinges to the post could fail—causing the gate to sag from one side to the other. The gate itself may also have come out of square due to failing supports, causing it to sag. On the other hand, it’s possible the gate isn’t the issue at all. The post holding the gate aloft may lean inward, causing the gate to sag.

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.
