"Top notch! It was a complicated day. Many workers in a small area. Blake focused on getting a lovely wooden fence completed with many feet and trucks shuffling around a small area. He remained congenial and flexible with the whole crowd working. And the fence was complete with all the hardware I requested. I highly recommend him."

Since the 90's I've been repairing things around the home. I've worked on things from lawn mowers to gutters, if its around the house I've probably repaired it. In the 90's as a kid I mainly performed landscaping services but, over time this escalated into general repairs like fixing a leaky sink. from 2000 to 2013 I got a bit more serious and started a computer repair business. My repair business taught me a lot about customer satisfaction and how important it is to be thorough. During the time when I wasn't running my computer repair Shop I worked as a painter/carpenter part time. I ended up getting more calls to repair things like missing shingles on a roof or damaged trim on a someones garage.I figured with all the requests to repair things around the home I should become a contractor. I decided to go back to school and get a degree in business. I graduated with a 3.74 GPA and went to work. For the past few years I have been taking on more serious projects and I haven't had a dissatisfied customer yet. I love pleasing people and I love seeing the results of my projects. I thrive for building and repairing things. And someday I hope my work recognized by many.

Gate Repair questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can convert manual gates to electric operation. Installing a motor and an opening device from a kit allows you to convert any gate so it can open and close automatically. Be sure to buy the correct type of opener for your gate style. For example, some openers are specific to swinging gates, while others are for sliding gates. Get familiar with your swinging or sliding gate parts before you go shopping to avoid having to return to the store for the correct opener.

Electric gates can be forced open if someone applies enough force to the edge furthest from the mounting bracket. You can reduce this risk by adding an electric lock to your gate opener. However, automatic gate openers generally help deter intruders, especially when paired with outdoor lighting and security cameras. Other home security tips include trimming trees surrounding the area for added visibility and installing motion sensors in your yard.

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.

Installing your own gate is possible, but we don’t recommend it. Gates can weigh hundreds of pounds in some cases, and even types of gates made from the lightest materials are heavy, bulky, and difficult to maneuver into place. Positioning your gate perfectly is also crucial to make sure it swings smoothly and either closes automatically or doesn’t close without force, depending on your preferences. Mistakes made by DIYers can be quite costly, too, as the materials alone average around $1,000. As such, it’s better to hire a professional gate installer.

Double gates come with the same gaps as single gates, with hinges taking up a quarter of an inch of space. The difference is that double fence gates also have a center gap, which needs a little more clearance. Space the center gap at half an inch instead of the usual three-eighths of an inch for a single gate.
