"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."

"

Was pleased with the project overall. Liked that Tim explained different brands of fencing so we could choose quality over just the cheapest price. They explained their installation tid bits that help keep the challenges of vinyl fencing from rising out of the ground over time. Their price was in line with other company's proposals. The installers worked well together and had a 'system' that made them very efficient. I could not believe 3 people could do the project in 1 full day, but they did.

Within a month of the fence installed, one of those nasty storms caused a section to break free. We were panicked at first that we chose the wrong product, this was exactly what were trying to avoid by choosing a high wind resistant brand in Kroy. They came out within 3 days of the breakdown and explained the section notching mechanism was just a bit not slotted in place, so the fence is designed to break away like that. Only part that actually broke was the post cap. He was able to reconnect the section and have not had any troubles with section failure since. Expect that gates will need adjusting, just an fyi, with ground settling the first year, but the repair group comes out to adjust and teach the owner how to make future little adjustments from normal ground shifting.

"Rick was very professional and timely. He came out on the morning he said he would and replaced and repaired the posts as discussed during his initial estimate visit. He was in contact with us through the entire process. I would certainly recommend him to all of my family and friends. Great guy to work with!"

"I purchased the $99 Big Deal for 3 hours of handyman work back when they were called HomeDM Remodeling.  Our front door was starting to sag and not latch properly and I wanted assistance helping to re-square it and to replace an poorly installed and horribly leaking exterior door in our dining room.  I'm moderately handy around the house and thought I would help with the re-leveling of the front door prior to his arrival so I removed the screen door.  Turns out it was not necessary and I actually wasted time.  What I thought would take well over an hour took about 5 minutes to fix.  He removed the mounting screws on the hinge side and used a long crow bar to lift that side of the frame up about 3/4 of an inch.  We used my table saw to cut a custom shim to hold it in place before re-installing the mounting screws.  He clearly knows his business and the tricks of the trade!  I was allowed to help out with getting the previously removed screen door reattached.  We then spent the rest of the time removing a horrible exterior door and installing a previously purchased one.  We can, once again, eat in our dining room without baking in the summer and freezing in the winter!
Thank you very much!!

Gate Repair questions, answered by experts

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. 

Installation typically takes 1-3 days, depending on the gate type and site conditions.

To make your gate safe, purchase a gate made from strong material such as wrought iron, stainless steel, or other metals. Ensure that the gate has strong joints and bars that are welded on rather than inserted loosely. If you’re concerned about people climbing over your gate, you can deter them by installing fence spikes along the top as an extra precaution.

The cost to install a gate varies widely, with a typical range between $1,500 and $7,000. The average cost is around $3,500. However, the final price can be as low as $200 for a simple gate or as high as $12,000 for a large, automated security gate.

Key factors that determine the installation cost include:

  • Gate Material: This is a primary cost factor. Chain-link and vinyl are the most affordable, while wood and PVC are mid-range options. Wrought iron, aluminum, and other metals are the most expensive materials.

  • Automation: Automated gates are significantly more expensive than manual ones because they require motors, sensors, controls, and electrical installation.

  • Size and Type: The dimensions and style of the gate (e.g., swinging vs. sliding) will impact the price.

  • Security Level: Gates with advanced security features will increase the overall cost.

Yes, you can convert manual gates to electric operation. Installing a motor and an opening device from a kit allows you to convert any gate so it can open and close automatically. Be sure to buy the correct type of opener for your gate style. For example, some openers are specific to swinging gates, while others are for sliding gates. Get familiar with your swinging or sliding gate parts before you go shopping to avoid having to return to the store for the correct opener.
