"We got quoted to add a bathroom and small bedroom in our basement. In the contract, it said it would take 4 weeks to finish the job, with a stated number of hours worked per week that they never came close to acheiving. Most days they either didn't show up, or only worked a couple hours. They often said they would show up in the morning, and would cancel or not show up til around noon. They installed a shower with the walls on the wrong side and numerous other problems. They didn't even know that the water line for the toilet goes on the left side, not the right. They built a wall that they said would be flush to the existing wall, and was flush at one end, with a 1 inch gap at the other. Their plan for putting in an egress window was completely stupid. And they wanted to put in a 5 inch riser for a sanipro toilet, when there was not supposed to be one. A quick youtube search showed the proper way to install it. They told us they didn't need to pull permits. We were later told by the inspector that they should have and he recommended that we contact a lawyer because their work was completely unacceptable. We fired them after 2 weeks, he kept the down payment money that we gave him, and we have to pay another contractor to fix their work and finish the job."

Driveway Gates questions, answered by experts

It does matter which way a hinge is installed because it’s possible to install a hinge backward. The hinge pin should face the direction in which the door will swing, making the pin visible. Exterior doors that swing outward need a security hinge with an Allen set screw in the center to prevent someone from removing the hinge from the outside and accessing the home or business.

Assuming the site is prepped and you have all the tools and materials ready, you should budget the better part of a day to build a driveway gate. This can depend on your DIY experience and which materials you’ve chosen, such as building from scratch or using a prefabricated option. The gate size and finishing touches, like painting or staining, can also add to the overall time budget.

In addition to a doorbell camera, you can upgrade your home’s security with several different features. Backyard security, for instance, may include a mix of security cameras, lighting, and fencing. Additional security cameras around your property, as well as a total smart security system with an alarm connected to your smartphone, are also advisable. This could well be worth the cost for the peace of mind alone, but home security systems also lower home insurance costs.

While spring gates close gently but firmly, they’re not a foolproof solution for securing your yard to prevent pets or kids from escaping or unwanted guests from entering. Installing a gate latch that is sturdy and lockable with a self-closing mechanism is more effective, especially when used alongside other methods for keeping your home safe, such as cameras or motion detectors.

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.
