What is the difference between a barrier door and a security door?

• <div><p>Barrier doors or <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/3-things-know-about-screen-doors.htm">screen doors</a> are ideal for bringing in summer breezes without letting in pesky flies and mosquitoes. But these types of doors aren’t as secure as a security door, which is installed with permanent screws into the home’s walls and often have deadbolts or other heavy-duty lock mechanisms for better security.</p></div>

Q: Should I get a double fence gate for my yard?

• <div><p>If you only use your gate as a pedestrian, walking through without a vehicle, you&rsquo;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. </p></div>

Q: Should a wooden gate swing in or out?

• <div><p>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.</p><p>Keep in mind that there may be local building codes that require your gate to swing inward.</p></div>

Q: Do I need a permit to install a gate?

• <div><p>In most cases, you will need a permit to install a gate or fence on your property. Before your local municipality can issue a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/do-i-really-need-building-permit.htm">building permit</a>, you might also need a site plan or survey to identify property lines. Otherwise, you could infringe on your neighbor&rsquo;s property, leading to having to pay to take down and re-erect the fence. Permits for a gate and fence usually cost under <b>$100</b>. Luckily, your gate installation company will usually pull the permits for you and handle all of the red tape.</p></div>

Q: Can I install a gate myself?

• <div><p>You can install manual gates yourself. However, professional installation is recommended for automated or large gates to ensure proper setup.</p></div>

Casta was easy to work with. They had to remove a portion of my driveway that had sunk and repour. They kept the jobsite very clean. They were very respectful of the property. Once I agreed to use them they were quick to respond and had the job done quickly.
