Q: What size gate spring should I use?

• <div><p>Generally, the standard 10- to 12-inch-long and 1- to 1.5-inch-diameter gate springs will work. However, if you have an especially wide, thick, or heavy garden gate, you may need to opt for a longer, broader&mdash;and pricier&mdash;model to ensure secure closure and good longevity. These typically range between 12 and 16 inches long and are over 1.5 inches in diameter.</p></div>

Q: What is the difference between a screen door and a security door?

• <div><p>Screen doors tend to feature aluminum frames and mesh screens that allow homeowners to let a breeze in while keeping the home secure from pests. A security door is a heavy-duty structure designed to keep intruders from accessing the home. </p></div>

Q: What is the best wood for an outdoor gate?

• <div><p>Redwood and cedar work well for gates because they resist decay and severe weather conditions. Redwood is considered more elegant, though cedar is more affordable. Other options include oak and treated pine. Avoid softwoods like pine and spruce for outdoor projects, as they are susceptible to water, rot, and sun damage. </p></div>

Q: Which is better, a storm door or a security door?

• <div><p>Each has its use, depending on the scenario. Security doors are primarily intended to keep people out of the home, while storm doors are used to protect the home from extreme weather. Both tend to be made from heavy-duty metal and may include glass panels to allow light to enter the home. Storm doors can feature mesh screens, just like screen doors, to allow for increased ventilation and to keep out pests. Security doors rarely, if ever, have mesh screens.</p></div>

Q: Can I install my own gates?

• <div><p>Installing your own gate is possible, but we don&rsquo;t recommend it. Gates can weigh hundreds of pounds in some cases, and even <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/types-of-home-gates.htm">types of gates</a> made from the lightest materials are heavy, bulky, and difficult to maneuver into place. Positioning your gate perfectly is also crucial to make sure it swings smoothly and either closes automatically or doesn&rsquo;t close without force, depending on your preferences. Mistakes made by DIYers can be quite costly, too, as the materials alone average around <b>$1,000</b>. As such, it&rsquo;s better to hire a professional gate installer.</p></div>

Ergeon texted me and sent a link to work with Ricardo face to face. He used computer graphics to show me what the fence would look like and how I wanted the gate set up. From there he wrote a detailed estimate and went over it with me. The price was very reasonable. Ricardo was very efficient...

"I'm really late writing this review, but Fidel and the crew did an absolutely fantastic job building us a new deck. We talked at length about what I wanted, and he remembered everything I wanted done and did it perfectly. They used all long boards where appropriate, minimizing end-to-end seams. All corners are square and fit well, nails all subsurface, and quality wood was used throughout. The work was prompt and efficient, and cleanup and debris removal was perfect. The team was prompt and on time, and the job was finished faster than expected. We love our beautiful new deck, and wholeheartedly recommend JC’s Contracting. Thank you, Jose!"
