"The work that was done at our house was more than exceptional. Charles knew the metal needed and the type of gate that we were looking to get installed. He was very easy to work with and made us feel that us as his customers were very much a priority. I will only recommend Charles Ornamental to others seeking welding work. Thank you Charles and your team in keeping your appointments and completing the work we needed for security and peace of mind!!"

"Nice person. Did what they said they would do. Nothing jumped out at me to be unhappy about. Provide an estimate for some additional repair work which sounded little high. So I didnt get that repair work done. I would have expected a written report of the state of the chimney though. I will have to call them up for that. Overall, satisfied.

"The man from the company did a good job of cleaning the deck. However we had a communication problem about when he would return to apply the deck sealant. I told him I would call the office with possible days and times, which I did. The next day, the technician showed up unexpectedly to apply the sealant. I had not been contacted by the main office regarding this. Luckily I was at home and could let him to finish the job. The application of the deck sealant was O.K. but he missed a few patches which showed up when it rained a few days later. Overall I would rate the company as good."

Gate Repair questions, answered by experts

This largely depends on the layout of your property and your preferred walking route to various entryways. Take your time figuring out the perfect spot for the gate to avoid difficulties later on. With all this said, the best place to put a gate is an area free from obstructions that offer the shortest route to your house.

Yes, driveway gates can help secure your home by deterring burglars from accessing your property. Climbing a gate slows down burglars while also attracting attention to your gate. If you live further down your property and want to increase security, you can also install a gate security camera that connects to your gate and monitors the area for suspicious activity.

In most cases, you will need a permit to install a new driveway or property gate. An exception might be if you are simply replacing an existing gate. Before issuing a permit, your local municipality may require a site plan or survey to verify property lines and prevent encroachment on a neighbor's property. Permits for a gate typically cost under $100. Be aware that corner properties may have additional restrictions on gate height or style. It's wise to confirm permit requirements with your local building department or your gate installation company, which can usually handle the entire permitting process for you.

Yes, clean regularly, lubricate hinges or tracks, and inspect for damage to ensure smooth operation.

The most common cause of gate sensors not working is damaged wiring. Only a professional should diagnose this because it requires working with the system's electronics. There are safety concerns, but more than that, you don't want to accidentally short out your system or cause any electrical damage. Insects, rodents, and fallen branches are common reasons your wiring could become damaged.
