"These guys are really good professionals. The owner, Jeff Athanas came out to give me a quote. In addition to the work I requested he noticed some loose boards in my neighbor's fence and offered to throw in the replacements of these boards to make sure the yard is secure to a pet. We had a miscommunication over the removal of a bush that had grown into the fence adding unbearable weight and Jeff made a trip back to saw off the many limbs that were entwined in the fence. I would hire this company in a minute for any future fencing needs."

"Ingrid was very professional and prompt in response to my inquiry for repair of our metal stair access to our home. The quality of the welding work was excellent as well as the concrete work they performed. Additionally, the cost was approximately 1/3 less than all other providers. Would strongly recommend to anyone that requires deck or stair work."

"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."

"Fenceworks did an excellent job. They replaced old fencing and installed new upgraded fencing, including two new gates. The crew came right on time, worked hard and finished in one day, staying later than the office was open. Their work was meticulous, all level, even though the ground they were working with was uneven everywhere. They actually build the fence on-site to ensure their measurements are perfect - no prefab panels! The result is much better looking than the fencing they replaced, and certainly several times better in quality. Their clean up was equally comprehensive - not a speck of dust left anywhere. Definitely a great experience, and on top of everything their estimate was the lowest of the three we interviewed."

"Called a couple companies near me and was put on a waitlist for an initial estimate. Reached out to Mark and got to speak with him on the phone on my first call. He came by took measurements and got my door repaired within the week. Mark was very professional and provided a detailed inspection and efficient repair. Extremely happy with the results. Would recommend 100%."

"It was an excellent experience, from start to finish. I selected MPO because Mike O'Brien, the owner, was straight up with me about the estimate of time necessary, honored the Angie's list price even though I went directly to him rather than through Angie's list. With that pricing, he was considerably below three other estimates we received. We were able to get the work scheduled for within a week. Alberto, the project staff, was promptly on time every day and worked diligently with no down time or rest breaks except for lunch. He organized the tasks in such a way that he was always working on one of the different projects. He was thorough and expert in his work and took the time to explain to me any issues that arose (in an old house, there's always issues).
The plumber that came to fix the shower faucet was equally good. I suspected that I would have to replace the entire faucet unit, which would mean cutting through a tiled wall. They were able to identify where the faucet had come from and found the right replacement. What would have been a $350 faucet purchase became an $80 repair part.
They were able to accomplish all of this work within 2 1/2 days. When they were done, they cleaned up all of the work sites, in some cases leaving it cleaner than when they arrived."

"Jeff Winton and crew at Aspen are great to work with. Quality work and fair price. Last year, they installed a three-rail red cedar split rail with galvanized welded wire and three gates for our backyard (about 1/2 an acre) in a day-and-a-half."

Gate Repair questions, answered by experts

When making this decision, three essential factors come into play. For budget-conscious individuals, swing gates are the more economical choice. Despite the possibility of both gate types having similar dimensions, many types of sliding gates demand a more intricate opening mechanism and additional components, requiring electrical work for motors and signaling remotes, resulting in higher installation costs.

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 gate shouldn’t be higher or lower than the fence it's attached to. If the gate is lower than the fence, it encourages strangers to peek at your property. If the gate is higher than the fence, it just looks weird. Gates allow for increased security and aesthetics, so ensure the gate rests at the same height as the fence.

If you only use your gate as a pedestrian, walking through without a vehicle, you’re fine to stick with a single fence gate. If your fence opening needs to accommodate vehicles of any kind, from cars to trucks to 4-wheelers, then a double fence gate will suit the space much better and give you more freedom. 

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.
