"Golden eagle well exceeded my expectations. Josh was so friendly and quick to respond. Any time estimate he gave me, him or his team were early! The quotes he gave me were unbeatable! My fence was up in about 3 1/2 hours and within an hour of the crew leaving Josh was already calling to make sure I was satisfied. I couldn’t be happier!!!"

"Dennis was great! Same day that I requested a quote, he came out and provided the quote within an hour or two after leaving my house. Plus, we were able to get the fence and gate installed a few days later. Found out about Buckeye from our back neighbor who we went half on for their fence. And the quality is really nice. You definitely want to hire Buckeye Fencing."

Driveway Gates questions, answered by experts

Your dog might be able to slip underneath chewable, flexible fabric gate covers. When you have a wayward woofer, using wooden panels that come within an inch or two of the ground is the most secure option. You may need a metal defense barrier dug into the soil to keep your dog from digging under your fence or gate.

Whether you can attach a wood extension to a vinyl gate depends on the gate's construction. Some vinyl gates are sturdy enough to allow wood or vinyl boards to be attached. Many, however, have hollow frames that may not hold screws or heavy extensions securely. For these, consider alternative extension options such as a rubber flap or chicken wire.

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.

Your gate should be 3/4 to an inch smaller than the opening. The opening size that you need for your gate can vary depending on your hinge type. You may also need to add reinforcing braces if the gap between your gate and the fence is not uniform from top to bottom.

While there’s no hard evidence to support this idea, driveway gates at least provide an additional obstacle that may deter crime. After all, a would-be burglar or trespasser would have to break into the gate and the property itself. The extra work could encourage them to move onto a house without a driveway gate.
