"I hired these guys to install an estate gate at my winter home in Englewood Florida. I dealt with them strictly by phone and e-mail and the level of communication was phenomenal. The owner made the choice extremely easy by sending pictures and options through e-mail. Once completed, they sent me pictures and videos of the gate in operation. I could not be happier with their service and can t wait to operate my new gate when I come back for the winter."

Customers say: Quality work

"He recommended options I never even considered and everything looks incredible. Very happy customer. I got black vinyl chain-link with a 5' gates on each side. He recommended I get it just past my side door so my crazy dogs would still be inside the back yard fence when running out and the vinyl coating to help protect the kiddo from getting scratched up. Looks really good to boot. He included the wire line around the bottom to keep the dogs from going under the fence in the future. Happy customer."

"Very pleased with all aspects from quote, installation and follow-up with H&Y Fence Co. Lee Ann, in the office, was very helpful in answering questions and scheduling the job. Hats off to Diego and Miguel for an excellent installation of the fence and gate. They arrived as scheduled, explained the process, installed the fence and gate without destroying the flower beds and cleaned the property thoroughly after the job was completed, and hauled away the old fence/gate.. I highly recommend H&Y fence company."

"10/10 Highly recommend. Englewood Fence did a fantastic job installing my gate. The owner, Robert, brought great ideas to the project and executed them beautifully. His crew was professional, respectful, and clearly takes pride in their work. No shortcuts were taken. What really stood out was that the owner was personally on-site to ensure everything was done perfectly. That level of involvement and attention to detail is hard to find. I will absolutely be using Englewood Fence again for future projects!"

Gate Repair questions, answered by experts

While it is possible to install a manual gate yourself, it is generally not recommended. Professional installation is strongly advised, especially for automated or large driveway gates. Gates can be extremely heavy, sometimes weighing hundreds of pounds, which makes them bulky and dangerous to maneuver into place. Proper installation requires perfect positioning and balancing to ensure the gate swings smoothly and functions as intended. For automated gates, the wiring is also hazardous and typically requires a licensed electrician. Mistakes during a DIY installation can be costly, as materials alone can average around $1,000. Given the safety risks and the difficulty of achieving a proper setup, it is best to hire a professional gate installer.

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.

Automatic gate openers last around 10 years, but this time span depends on several external factors, like the type of gate they're attached to and how well you’ve kept up with general maintenance. Despite lasting a decade, you should still expect to complete one or two repairs in that time, as some components will fail before others.

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. 

Double gates come with the same gaps as single gates, with hinges taking up a quarter of an inch of space. The difference is that double fence gates also have a center gap, which needs a little more clearance. Space the center gap at half an inch instead of the usual three-eighths of an inch for a single gate.
