Q: Do driveway gates deter crime?

• <div><p>While there&rsquo;s no hard evidence to support this idea, driveway gates at least provide an additional obstacle that may deter crime. After all, a would-be burglar or trespasser would have to break into the gate and the property itself. The extra work could encourage them to move onto a house without a driveway gate.</p></div>

Q: Is having a driveway gate installed worth it?

• <div><p>Driveway gates are expensive to install, but they are usually a worthwhile investment. Not only does this exterior feature improve your curb appeal and, by extension, your property value, but they also help keep your home secure. Driveway can keep out unwanted guests and provide additional privacy for you and your household. Plus, they can serve as a means of keeping children and pets in your yard, depending on the type of fence.</p></div>

Q: Why does my gate keep sagging?

• <div><p>There are a few possible issues that are causing your gate to sage. The hinges may be bent, or the screws holding the hinges to the post could fail&mdash;causing the gate to sag from one side to the other. The gate itself may also have come out of square due to failing supports, causing it to sag. On the other hand, it&rsquo;s possible the gate isn&rsquo;t the issue at all. The post holding the gate aloft may lean inward, causing the gate to sag.</p></div>

Q: Is a sliding or swinging gate better?

• <div><p>If you don&rsquo;t have a lot of clearance, a sliding gate can save space. But keep in mind that sliding gates may require more maintenance to keep in operating condition, and swinging gates are often less expensive. </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>

This crew is so professional and skilled. Our fence not only looks beautiful, but is incredibly strong. Every single nail on the fence and both gates is screwed into the wood. A pleasure to work with BJ and his entire crew. Thank you! Gabe and Amy Wolber

They did not complete the job. My driveway gate is now stuck in the open position and will not close. I spoke with them last on April 29, 2015 and whatever materials were ordered via UPS did not show up because he said that UPS damaged the materials. I emailed them in April, May, and June...

They arrived on time and were very professional and cleaned up when they were done. It took 2 days to install the fence, so they were very efficient. A year later, we had a problem with a hinge that broke, due to our landscaper slamming the double gate. We called On-line Deck and Fence and they...
