"Upon accepting the assignment, Eric showed us choices for our shingles and even gave us locations in the area where that particular type and color shingle had been used. His team showed up exactly as promised, did what they were supposed to do AND MORE, cleaned up beautifully and left in a timely manner. Even though there was MUCH MORE repair work on the roof underlayment than expected, the quoted price remained the same. In an industry where "war stories" abound about unscrupulous operators, It was an absolute pleasure to deal with Mr. Newsome and Sunrise Roofing."

"Well, day 1 the crew did not get to job site until 3pm.  Worked for a couple of hours and discovered that they were short 4 posts.  Came back on day 2 and put in the rest of the posts and started putting up the boards.  Started raining (light rain) and after a couple of hours they said that they would have to come back the next day because of the rain.  Came back on day 3 and discovered that one of the double gates was short in size. They called the supply house to have another gate made. They did not come on day 4 because apparently the supply house could not get the gate made. Did not hear from anyone on day 4 until I called the owner to ask if they were coming.  That's when I was told that there was a problem with the gate getting made.  Did not get the gate made until day 5 when the owner got back to town and apparently had to make it himself.   The weld on the double gates is poor and they cold galvanize sprayed some of the welds but not all of them.  I will have to do that myself.  They set up on the back porch to do drilling and cutting and left metal shavings on the porch and cigarette butts throughout the yard. Did not recover post holes to cover  the concrete with dirt that was dug out.  They also left a bag of concrete mix here for me to dispose of.  This two day job took five days which caused me to have to postpone things that I had to do so that I could be here.

Gate Repair questions, answered by experts

Double gates come with the same gaps as single gates, with hinges taking up a quarter of an inch of space. The difference is that double fence gates also have a center gap, which needs a little more clearance. Space the center gap at half an inch instead of the usual three-eighths of an inch for a single gate. 

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.

You don’t need a permit for an automatic gate in most cities because it isn’t a structural change to your home, but you need to check. A pro can help you with this and since we don’t recommend installing an automatic gate yourself, you should already be in contact with one, making this a frictionless question. Outside of permit requirements, you need to consider your homeowners association (HOA), as some are against gated homes.

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.

While it is possible to install a manual gate yourself, it is generally not recommended. Professional installation is strongly advised, especially for automated or large driveway gates. Gates can be extremely heavy, sometimes weighing hundreds of pounds, which makes them bulky and dangerous to maneuver into place. Proper installation requires perfect positioning and balancing to ensure the gate swings smoothly and functions as intended. For automated gates, the wiring is also hazardous and typically requires a licensed electrician. Mistakes during a DIY installation can be costly, as materials alone can average around $1,000. Given the safety risks and the difficulty of achieving a proper setup, it is best to hire a professional gate installer.
