"Frank was great, very professional tight from estimating the job to finishing and cleanup. He came in with a helper and completely replaced our overhead door and opener in about two hours or less. I would highly recommend this company to anyone. If I could give him more than a 5 star rating, I would."

"Installation was fine but the fence has worn in 5 years and the gates are out of alignment. We requested an inspection and repair at our cost 2 weeks ago. We followed up with office and asked owner to respond to fix the problem. We have not received a response since the inspection by Alex. Alex was very nice and professional, but the lack response by the office as a return customer is concerning."

"I received a few quotes from fencing companies. My husband and I decided to hire Flores Fencing. The quotes I received from the different fencing companies were pretty similar as far as cost but we decided to go with Flores Fencing because they were the only company that seem enthusiastic about getting our business. The other companies, which have been in business a lot longer than Flores Fencing, never even bothered with any form of follow up communication after they gave me the quote. Emanuel however, was great at communicating with me throughout the process and Wilfredo was great at addressing my questions or concerns about my project. The workers were efficient and after completing the installation of my fence and gate, they made sure they left my yard pristine. Wilfredo, who is one of the salesperson, came over to help the workers to make sure the work was completed in one day. He even took it upon himself to fix a gate that was not part of our project which he noticed needed a simple repair. The fence and gate they installed looks absolutely wonderful. I am so pleased! I highly recommend Flores Fencing!"

"We contacted the company for a quote, Ted came out and gave us the quote, which was a fair quote for the product and since we used them on the other fence, we would use them again. Problems arose when we tried to get the permit so that the company could start on the date we accepted. When we tried to get it the city advised us that the company had not paid their licensing fee, so my wife called the company and advised them of this, the company representative advised us that they had, several calls back and forth between us and the village and  the company and a week and a half  later the fee was paid and we could get our permit we were also advised that because of the delay we had lost our date, we then advised them that this was not our fault and our date was given back. The workers arrived on time and began, they tore down the fence and placed the new one up in a day, the crew finished up and left. I went out side and viewed the gate and noticed the gate hinges had been poorly/ improperly installed, and that one of my gutters had been crushed and the siding cap on the corner of the house had been broken also a panel was left behind . I then photographed the problems and emailed and called the company about the issues. Jay had contacted my wife and stated that someone would be out to fix the problems, after a few day of not hearing anything we contacted Jay and left a message for him, he had contacted me and advised that someone would be by, no one came by, Jay then called and advised us that the person who was supposed to come by was sick and that another person would be coming by to make the repairs. The person did show up and fixed the gate hinges and some of the boards, he didn't have enough to fix all of the bad ones and advised us that he would be back next week to repair the gutter and siding cap, As of this date 05/22/14 they have not returned to fix those issues as of yet, the  gate was completed on 05/15/14. As of 05/25/14 I have not heard when they will be back, I will keep the site updated when they complete the corrections. on 05/29/14 someone came out and repaired the broken siding cap ( great job ) , he also left several boards if I needed to repair and bad boards, I would like to say I am pleased with the job done."

"It could not have gone better. JJ came to look at the staircase on a Wednesday. We got his bid on Friday, and it was significantly less than the only other bid we received. JJ said he could start work on the coming Monday and finish on Thursday. That’s exactly what happened. JJ is a nice guy who knows his stuff and is easy to work with. We’ll surely hire him again."

Driveway Gates questions, answered by experts

Is your wrought iron gate really rusty or in need of major repair work? Replacing it with a gate with built-in privacy screening may be easier and, in some cases, more economical. Professional fence or gate repair costs average $100 to $400, and you may be able to get a new gate for the same price.

While entryways are seldom added to a house to increase the sale price, they are commonly constructed to increase the livability and enjoyment of a home. So, while they aren’t necessary, they do make for a more comfortable and luxurious-feeling home. Entryways are most valuable in areas of extreme heat, cold, or rain, as the space between the living area and the outdoors helps keep the outdoors outside. Plus, snow, wet boots, and mud are all corralled into one space that’s easy to clean.

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.

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.

This largely depends on the layout of your property and your preferred walking route to various entryways. Take your time figuring out the perfect spot for the gate to avoid difficulties later on. With all this said, the best place to put a gate is an area free from obstructions that offer the shortest route to your house.
