Trost Plastics is a family run business that has specialized in selling vinyl fence and rail since 1988. Aluminum fence and rail has been added in the last few years. Our installers are local people who only work for us and work year round - not subcontracted. Azek cellular PVC decking is also a very important part of our business that we have been selling since it was first produced in 2004 and has proven itself as a quality product.

"A couple weeks after signing the contract, we got a phone call from the company asking for an additional $658. Apparently they made a mistake. A couple days later, they dropped the new increase to $488. We canceled. As a retired salesman, I have made my share of errors, but NEVER would I expect the customer to be punished for them. I suspect now that they really didn’t want a little $5000 job in the first place. To their credit, they promptly and courteously refunded our deposit. That being said, a measure of trust was violated. When a company tries to increase their signed agreement, alarm bells should sound from the consumer. I think this is a fairly good company that has somehow lost its way. I’ve told this story to several business associates, and the unanimous consensus is that this represents a poor business practice, raising suspicions. Others could not believe that Trost would do this, especially since no offer was made to honor the agreement. And that people who know this company quickly defend their honesty. But considering our experience, we cannot recommend them."

Gate Repair questions, answered by experts

Electric gates can be forced open if someone applies enough force to the edge furthest from the mounting bracket. You can reduce this risk by adding an electric lock to your gate opener. However, automatic gate openers generally help deter intruders, especially when paired with outdoor lighting and security cameras. Other home security tips include trimming trees surrounding the area for added visibility and installing motion sensors in your yard.

Electric gates have a manual override switch that detaches the motor from the opening mechanism. For most gates, this requires a key as a deterrent to thieves or trespassers forcing open your gate. Be aware that many automatic or electric gates are very heavy, so it may be difficult to close the gate if you are fine with manually opening it.

Installing a gate on an existing fence or alongside a new fence is usually worthwhile, even though it can be expensive. Side gates give you easier access to your rear yard, making the space more usable. More importantly, they can help keep your children and pets safe in your yard without compromising accessibility. Security gates are particularly worthwhile, as they have the added bonus of protecting your home. In case that’s not enough upside, installing a fence with gates usually boosts your curb appeal and property value.

Whether you can attach a wood extension to a vinyl gate depends on the gate's construction. Some vinyl gates are sturdy enough to allow wood or vinyl boards to be attached. Many, however, have hollow frames that may not hold screws or heavy extensions securely. For these, consider alternative extension options such as a rubber flap or chicken wire.

Your gate should be 3/4 to an inch smaller than the opening. The opening size that you need for your gate can vary depending on your hinge type. You may also need to add reinforcing braces if the gap between your gate and the fence is not uniform from top to bottom.
