"Kaleb and Leah are dishonest and unprofessional. Paid them $7,000 in July 2021 as a 50% deposit “for materials”. They promised to begin the job in August 2021, and to complete it within a week after that. Once they had my money they disappeared and it took months of calls and e-mails and text messages to get them to actually show up in late October of 2021. Two guys showed up and started digging post holes by hand. Then they disappeared again for a month. As of March 2022 the job is still not even half done and looks terrible. The neighbors are complaining about it. This company is a scam, two of their employees told me that they have taken deposits on multiple jobs they have never completed. I have had to hire a lawyer and file a lawsuit since they have not made any attempt to complete the job or resolve this situation in any other way. Do not hire this company."

Driveway Gates questions, answered by experts

Most exterior doors swing inward for better security. But a security door will swing outward. What makes it so secure are the one-way screws that go through the door, the door frame or house wall, and into the home. Make sure to align your door so it swings outward, with the door handle aligned with the existing door’s handle.

Ideally, your gate would swing both in and out. However, if it can only open in one direction, it's generally best for the gate to swing inward. There are exceptions, however. For example, if your property is on a slope, your gate may not be able to swing in.

Keep in mind that there may be local building codes that require your gate to swing inward.

A DIY manual wooden gate costs $200 to $600 for a basic single-swing gate. If you want to hire a pro, a manual wood gate can cost $400 to $4,000. For automated wood gates, expect to pay $850 to $8,500.

Factors that affect price include the quality of materials, cost of labor, the height of the gate, and the type of gate you need.

You can install a privacy cover on your wrought iron gate anytime. However, pick a dry day if you apply stain or paint to the paneling. If you’re hiring a local fencing contractor, they often offer better rates in their low season outside the busy spring and summer months.

Yes, clean regularly, lubricate hinges or tracks, and inspect for damage to ensure smooth operation.
