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—and pricier—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>

What is the difference between a barrier door and a security door?

• <div><p>Barrier doors or <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/3-things-know-about-screen-doors.htm">screen doors</a> are ideal for bringing in summer breezes without letting in pesky flies and mosquitoes. But these types of doors aren’t as secure as a security door, which is installed with permanent screws into the home’s walls and often have deadbolts or other heavy-duty lock mechanisms for better security.</p></div>

Q: What features can be added to a gate?

• <div><p>Features include automation, intercoms, keypads, and decorative elements. Custom options enhance security and style.</p></div>

Q: Can thieves open electric gates?

• <div><p>Thieves can open almost anything with enough time and the right tools, but they also prefer easy targets that are unlikely to get them caught. Forcing open gates is loud and difficult, and to be able to open one electronically requires extensive knowledge of the system, which most thieves don't have. Electric and other <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/types-of-security-gates.htm">security gates</a> are great deterrents because the thief will move to an easier target. If the thief is determined to enter your property, they will most likely find a different entrance point.</p></div>

Q: Do installations include safety checks?

• <div><p>Yes, most services include safety checks and anchoring to ensure stability. Confirm with your provider.</p></div>

They did an excellent job. Had to have a couple things repaired that was caught in the home inspection. The job was quick. The cost could always be cheaper but I was only charged a service call.

What really sold me on this shop was the courtesy I was given by the employee's. I did not talk to the repair man until the next day. What blew me away that they did not charge for the service. I will take the machine back if I have any problems. I will also delight in shopping at this store.
