"Very well built fence using quality materials. I was looking for a sturdy wood fence replacement and the new fence is much stronger than the original ever was. New fence has 4 foot spacing for the the 4x4 post, a 6x6 post to anchor the gate, and the pickets are secured individually (not pre-built). If you are looking for a wood fence that is going to last, this is very good deal for the money."

"I left a message Saturday asking them to call me after the Memorial Day holiday weekend. They called Tuesday morning and set an appointment for between 10 and 2. At a few minutes before 10 the repair man called to ask if he could come. He arrived a short time later and gave me a quote and I accepted it. He started working and replaced the wheel I knew was bad and two others he said were going to fail soon. He also adjusted the spring so the the door doesn't slam like it had been doing. The door also sound much better now going up and down after he finished."

"it went well.  Dan and his assistant arrived on time.  he had to leave and get the supplies he needed after he saw the job that needed to be done.  they both did a good job and was worth the money.  my only comment would be he seemed a little annoyed when he had to go back to Home Depot again for more supplies, which was certainly not my fault, and seemed to not want to paint, which was part of the job I hired them for.  all in all, a good experience and would use them again.

"They installed two electric gate motors and a keypad. Arrived when scheduled on the Saturday before Christmas Eve and stayed until 7PM. They were thorough with the installation and cleanup post installation. Very professional and refused to leave until everything was working properly. Had all of the proper tools and creatively solved a problem when identified. I would use them again without hesitation and highly recommend them."

Driveway Gates FAQs, answered by experts

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

The best direction for a gate to swing depends on its location and purpose, but swinging inward is the general rule. An inward swing is often considered safer, prevents the gate from opening into public spaces like a sidewalk, and may be required by local building codes.

There are exceptions and specific considerations. If your property is on a slope, an inward swing might not be possible. For a deck gate, it's safest to have it swing away from any steps. In a backyard, the direction can be a matter of preference, though an inward swing can be helpful when carrying heavy items like a wheelbarrow into a garden.

Regardless of direction, ensure the gate can open fully without hitting any objects or blocking spaces. While an inward swing is standard, a gate that can swing both in and out offers the most flexibility if your setup allows for it.

When building an outdoor or deck gate, it's crucial to use durable wood that can withstand harsh weather conditions like sunlight, rain, wind, and snow. Redwood and cedar are excellent choices as they naturally resist decay. While redwood is considered more elegant, cedar is a more affordable option. Other suitable woods include oak and pressure-treated pine, which is specifically treated to resist rot. Although some softwoods like pine are popular, untreated softwoods such as pine and spruce should generally be avoided for outdoor projects because they are susceptible to damage from water, rot, and the sun. Ultimately, it's wise to consider your local climate when selecting the right wood for your gate.

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.

A Trex gate costs $750 plus another $200 for the hardware pack necessary for installation. By contrast, Trex fencing ranges in price from $22 to $38 per linear foot, so you may pay a lot or a little depending on just how much space you need to enclose in your yard.
