"IT was great! I have never had a problem working with this company. The people (from the customer service reps to the billing to the drivers) have all been honest and realistic with expectations, answered all of my questions and never charged me more than what is advertised on their website. Patricia and Victoria have gone out of their way to return my many phone calls on the weekends too. You just don't get customer service these days anymore like the bullbag provides.They came when they said they would, did what they said they would do and did it professionally and pleasantlly. It is a pleasure working with such an honest and reputable company. Especially since the dumpster industry has not been know for this! These guys are definitely setting the bar high for all their competition."

"Kevin and his company came through for us in a major way. I wasn't aware of his original schedule of clients and work load, but we needed our basement drywall taped/mudded and sanded in preparation for painting. Kevin stopped by to assess the job on a Tuesday and sent his crew over for the next 2 working days and made them available for painting for the next three working days after that. He provided us with a  reasonable hourly rate and although it was my first time hiring a contractor, it was an easy process to get his crew in, working, and finish the work needed. As an aside, because we were under an extremely tight timeline to get the work done, coordination was required between myself and his employees (e.g. me providing enough paint and supplemental materials) since he was unable to be on site beyond initial and final inspection of the work. Finally, because I underestimated how much work was required (over 750 sq.ft of drywall requiring tape/mud/plastering AND paint, including trim), the final labor total ended up exceeding what we initially budgeted for. Part of this was due to unanticipated issues (e.g. humidity causing issues with the mudding and paint drying timely) causing increased downtime and extending how long the job took. Independent of American Property Services, my recommendation to anyone needing work done in a hurry and hiring by the hourly rate is to hire for a job with which you are skilled in the actual work being done (and just need an extra hand to move things along), otherwise, obtain a quote for the entire job to prevent cost-overruns. Overall, I would certainly hire Kevin and his crew again."

"Jon and his team were responsive and did a great job installing a fence and gates around our yard. Their price was competitive. There were a lot of bushes and debris in the way, but they got a big job done quicky. Great attention to detail! I would highly recommend hiring this company for fence installs."

Driveway Gates questions, answered by experts

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.

Is your wrought iron gate really rusty or in need of major repair work? Replacing it with a gate with built-in privacy screening may be easier and, in some cases, more economical. Professional fence or gate repair costs average $100 to $400, and you may be able to get a new gate for the same price.

Thieves can open almost anything with enough time and the right tools, but they also prefer easy targets that are unlikely to get them caught. Forcing open gates is loud and difficult, and to be able to open one electronically requires extensive knowledge of the system, which most thieves don't have. Electric and other security gates are great deterrents because the thief will move to an easier target. If the thief is determined to enter your property, they will most likely find a different entrance point.

The cost to install a gate varies widely, with a typical range between $1,500 and $7,000. The average cost is around $3,500. However, the final price can be as low as $200 for a simple gate or as high as $12,000 for a large, automated security gate.

Key factors that determine the installation cost include:

  • Gate Material: This is a primary cost factor. Chain-link and vinyl are the most affordable, while wood and PVC are mid-range options. Wrought iron, aluminum, and other metals are the most expensive materials.

  • Automation: Automated gates are significantly more expensive than manual ones because they require motors, sensors, controls, and electrical installation.

  • Size and Type: The dimensions and style of the gate (e.g., swinging vs. sliding) will impact the price.

  • Security Level: Gates with advanced security features will increase the overall cost.

The best direction for a gate to swing depends on its location and purpose, but swinging inward is the general rule. An inward swing is often considered safer, prevents the gate from opening into public spaces like a sidewalk, and may be required by local building codes.

There are exceptions and specific considerations. If your property is on a slope, an inward swing might not be possible. For a deck gate, it's safest to have it swing away from any steps. In a backyard, the direction can be a matter of preference, though an inward swing can be helpful when carrying heavy items like a wheelbarrow into a garden.

Regardless of direction, ensure the gate can open fully without hitting any objects or blocking spaces. While an inward swing is standard, a gate that can swing both in and out offers the most flexibility if your setup allows for it.
