We have had Brian and his crew working in our home on an off for 2+ years.  We are in the process of remodeling our home - section by section - room by room.  We found Brian after being robbed of over 5K by a shyster of a contractor...we were burned, burned, burned.  Brian had the unfortunate task of coming in behind these creeps - ripping out everything they did and starting over.  Not easy - considering we were extremely gun shy.

He has worked his way from the garage through our laundry room into our master bedroom, master bedroom closet, master bath room on into the hall and then into the guest bathroom.  ALL of these rooms have been completely transformed by Brian.  He has painted, laid tile (on floors and walls), patched walls, installed hard wood flooring, installed new windows, installed stone on one side of our fireplace, done a ton of plumbing and wiring, installed doors (regular and pocket), installed light fixtures, plumbing fixtures, and shower systems.  He has put up with our craziness and insecurities and still managed to get the job done...

You have to be willing to work WITH Brian.  For me this is a wonderful thing - he is always full of ideas - that usually are things that I have thought of but never thought possible.

We still have two bedrooms a great room and a kitchen to get through...Brian will be with us for the foreseeable future!!!

Driveway Gates questions, answered by experts

Ideally, a gate should be able to swing both in and out. However, if it can only open in one direction, it is generally best for it to swing inward. This is often the safest option, especially for deck gates near steps, as you'll want the gate to swing away from the stairs. An inward swing also prevents the gate from opening into a public space, like a sidewalk, and can be more convenient when carrying heavy items like a wheelbarrow into a garden.

There are exceptions, however. The layout of your property may require a different approach. For example, if your property is on a slope, the gate may not be able to swing inward. You should also ensure the gate can open fully without colliding with any objects or blocking access to other areas. For a backyard garden gate where public access isn't a concern, the direction it swings is largely a matter of personal preference. Finally, always check your local building codes, as they may have specific requirements for which way a gate must swing.

Electric gates can be forced open if someone applies enough force to the edge furthest from the mounting bracket. You can reduce this risk by adding an electric lock to your gate opener. However, automatic gate openers generally help deter intruders, especially when paired with outdoor lighting and security cameras. Other home security tips include trimming trees surrounding the area for added visibility and installing motion sensors in your yard.

There is a reason many commercial garages and storage facilities have roller garage doors. They stand out as one of the most secure options due to their unique design. The compact installation and absence of visible leverage points on the sturdy aluminum curtain make them a formidable obstacle for potential intruders. 

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.

Many contractors offer warranties for materials and labor. Confirm terms before hiring.
