"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

Installing your own gate is possible, but we don’t recommend it. Gates can weigh hundreds of pounds in some cases, and even types of gates made from the lightest materials are heavy, bulky, and difficult to maneuver into place. Positioning your gate perfectly is also crucial to make sure it swings smoothly and either closes automatically or doesn’t close without force, depending on your preferences. Mistakes made by DIYers can be quite costly, too, as the materials alone average around $1,000. As such, it’s better to hire a professional gate installer.

Many contractors offer warranties for materials and labor. Confirm terms before hiring.

Hiring a reliable gate company starts by finding an installer with at least five years of experience in your area. This method will ensure they understand local laws and regulations and are familiar with the permitting process. You can also ask the following questions to ensure a smooth installation:

  • Have you worked with my gate material in the past?

  • Do you have customer references I can call?

  • Are you fully insured?

  • Will you pull the necessary permits for the installation?

  • Do you provide any kind of warranty for the gate’s functionality?

The average cost to install a gate is around $2,300, but you could pay between $200 and $7,000, depending on a few factors. The most significant cost factors to consider are the gate type of gate you want installed and the gate material. Automatic gates leading to your driveway will usually be the most expensive options, given the size and weight of the gate, as well as the added cost of the electronics for control. Chain-link and vinyl gates will usually be the most affordable, while aluminum and metal gates fetch the highest prices.

It does matter which way a hinge is installed because it’s possible to install a hinge backward. The hinge pin should face the direction in which the door will swing, making the pin visible. Exterior doors that swing outward need a security hinge with an Allen set screw in the center to prevent someone from removing the hinge from the outside and accessing the home or business.
