"We’ve used Avi’s Garage Door Service multiple times over the past 3 years to maintain our old garage door system, and once again, Avi went above and beyond! When our Chamberlain opener failed and the chain snapped, we called Avi and he was at our house within 30 minutes. He worked for 3 hours in our 90° garage with incredible skill, professionalism, and a fantastic attitude. He arrived fully prepared with multiple products and price point options, and took the time to explain brands, warranties, longevity, and every option so we could make the right decision for our home. After installation, he programmed our openers, keypad, and vehicle buttons, then showed us how everything worked. Our new system is incredibly quiet and smooth! We absolutely love it. Avi is a superb technician with an exceptional work ethic, and we highly recommend him!"

"Big Sun gave me the best estimate out of five different fence companies. They provided professional service and support through the whole process. The whole team kept me informed along the way to the installers being very courteous, efficient, and skilled. Best decision I made to have Big Sun Fence installed my aluminum five foot fence and a 14 electric gate. I've had several neighbors comment about how great it looks."

"Fencescape did a wonderful job by replacing our existing fence with a brand new, board-on-board fence. They built it on-site, and then replaced our gate with a much heavier gate that is reinforced with metal piping. They were competitively priced, arrived on time, performed the work as proposed, installed a high quality fence, and cleaned up their mess upon completion. We dealt with Wayne Jimerson, who is the nicest guy you'll ever meet. I highly recommend Fencescape."

Driveway Gates questions, answered by experts

In most cases, you will need a permit to install a new driveway or property gate. An exception might be if you are simply replacing an existing gate. Before issuing a permit, your local municipality may require a site plan or survey to verify property lines and prevent encroachment on a neighbor's property. Permits for a gate typically cost under $100. Be aware that corner properties may have additional restrictions on gate height or style. It's wise to confirm permit requirements with your local building department or your gate installation company, which can usually handle the entire permitting process for you.

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.

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.

Yes, clean regularly, lubricate hinges or tracks, and inspect for damage to ensure smooth operation.
