"Came to our home. Asked in detail what we wanted, made recommendations. Made measurements, explained what and when and how the work would proceed. I thought the price was a bit high but that s probably me being cheap. Crew showed up 2 days and finished the job very quickly. We had requested handrails for our front steps. Job was done quickly and professionally."

"Douglas Bush and his crew, Warren and Randy, did an excellent job.  They did everything that was quoted in the price and came back the following day to complete the job.  All three were very professional and courteous.  They were not even annoyed by all the questions I had as they completed the work.
Warren repaired a bungled gutter job that some other folks did that I hired.  He came in and fixed everything including adding some pieces and two additional down sprouts.
Doug and Randy did a great job installing the french drain so that water can run from my backyard down the side slope of my home to the street.  Once the dirt settles, I will be getting them back to add some dirt and level the yard.  I am pleased with the results because it will keep the water from settling in my back yard and around my foundation.

"He was awesome.  He called back, but he was working in Reed field, North Carolina and he could not get to us for a couple of days.  By the time, he got to us we had already gotten the other estimates, and we were pleased with him.  Hampton guy was great.  He was really quick to get back to us, but he had other projects that he had already lined up.  The experience was very satisfactory.  He was very courteous, and prompt.  He was very honest in saying that he cannot get to us, and if we needed to have this work done now, then we need to have to get somebody else.  I appreciated that."

Driveway Gates FAQs, answered by experts

When choosing a driveway gate, consider the fence material, whether you want an automatic gate or a manual one, and property limitations like the slope of your driveway. We recommend speaking with a professional driveway gate installer to see what types of gates will work on your property based on your fencing or home’s exterior. Keep in mind that driveway gates should range between 10 to 12 feet wide to ensure cars can easily maneuver through the gateway.

Ideally, a gate should be able to swing both in and out. However, if it can only open in one direction, it is generally best for it to swing inward. This is often the safest option, especially for deck gates near steps, as you'll want the gate to swing away from the stairs. An inward swing also prevents the gate from opening into a public space, like a sidewalk, and can be more convenient when carrying heavy items like a wheelbarrow into a garden.

There are exceptions, however. The layout of your property may require a different approach. For example, if your property is on a slope, the gate may not be able to swing inward. You should also ensure the gate can open fully without colliding with any objects or blocking access to other areas. For a backyard garden gate where public access isn't a concern, the direction it swings is largely a matter of personal preference. Finally, always check your local building codes, as they may have specific requirements for which way a gate must swing.

Fence gates sag because they have no support on the latch side of the gate to help hold them aloft. A gate wheel fixes that problem by providing support for that latch side. Remember that the ground must be level in front of the gate so the wheel can roll freely when you open and close it. If the terrain is uneven or slopes, a gate wheel won’t work.

For homeowners concerned about security, an electric gate may offer peace of mind. Electric gates will require a code or remote to open, so you don’t have to worry about young children getting out of the yard or someone breaking onto your property by simply swinging open the gate. But because it needs power to operate, installing an electric gate will be more complex and expensive.

Costs depend on system type, labor rates, and additional features like smart integration or professional monitoring.
