Get matched with top driveway gate pros in Worcester, MA

Q: How do I choose a driveway gate?

• <div><p>When choosing a driveway gate, consider the fence material, whether you want an <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/automatic-front-gate-options.htm">automatic gate</a> 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&rsquo;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.</p></div>

Q: Do gate installations include warranties?

• <div><p>Many contractors offer warranties for materials and labor. Confirm terms before hiring.</p></div>

Q: Should a gate swing in or out?

• <div><p>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.</p><p>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.</p></div>

Q: How much does a security door cost?

• <div><p>A security door costs an average of $1,400, but costs can range from $600 for a simple screen or <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/5-things-know-about-steel-door.htm">steel door</a> to more than $4,600 for a wrought-iron security door. You can also buy specialized locks separately for $200 to $600. If you decide to hire a pro to install your new security door, you&rsquo;ll spend around $275 to $425 on labor costs.</p></div>

Q: How important is an entryway?

• <div><p>While entryways are seldom added to a house to increase the sale price, they are commonly constructed to increase the livability and enjoyment of a home. So, while they aren&rsquo;t necessary, they do make for a more comfortable and luxurious-feeling home. Entryways are most valuable in areas of extreme heat, cold, or rain, as the space between the living area and the outdoors helps keep the outdoors outside. Plus, snow, wet boots, and mud are all corralled into one space that&rsquo;s easy to clean.</p></div>

Very good job by Patriot Sealcoating and Paving. The people who did the various aspects of the job worked efficiently, as a well-coordinated team. To start, Pat made design suggestions on the new part of the driveway for the addition. The gentle curve of the new driveway came out just right....

"Rob was very responsive, always on time, and did a beautiful job! I needed old gates/fencing removed, new gates built and installed and the length of my chain link fence secured at the bottom so my dogs could not escape. He came out and gave me a very reasonable quote for the work. He showed up on time, is friendly, and went above and beyond to get the work done, as it was more extensive than originally thought. I will definitley keep his cintact information handy! Highly recommend! 10/10. THANK YOU ROB! My puppies are extremely happy to ave their freedom back!"

"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."
