"GREAT!! We needed the back corner of our property fenced with 3 custom gates built as part of the project. We decided to change our request prior to installation, and Matt was very accommodating. We live on a lake and didn't want to block the view...while keeping our grandkids and dog safe. Matt listened to all our needs, sent his crew out and the job done was fantastic!! The crew was professional, listened to our questions, cleaned up well... Our dog is so happy, we are super happy and we would highly recommend Defence for all your fencing needs! Thanks Matt and crew!"

"I recently hired Active Home Savers to mow and maintain my lawn, and I am extremely satisfied with their services. The team was punctual, professional, and did an excellent job making my lawn look pristine. They paid great attention to detail, ensuring that every part of the lawn was evenly trimmed and well-maintained. The crew also cleaned up thoroughly after the job, leaving no grass clippings or debris behind. Communication was smooth from the start, and they were very responsive to any questions or special requests I had. The entire process was hassle-free, and the results were outstanding. I highly recommend Active Home Savers for anyone in need of reliable and high-quality lawn care services. Their dedication to customer satisfaction and the quality of their work truly stand out."

"The project went really well, and I couldn't be happier. Just as I requested, the new railing looks exactly like the old railing. There were some issues with installing it into the existing concrete steps, and Rick Gleason found a solution that really worked well. The new railing is sturdy and looks great."

"Big Bang were polite, prompt and very informative with their quote, going above and beyond to give a variety of options when we changed our minds about some of the initial specifications. In the end we had to use a specific contractor to be covered by our Home Warranty, otherwise we would have used them."

Driveway Gates questions, answered by experts

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.

To stop trash from blowing under your gate, you can install anti-litter netting. This solution prevents most large debris from being blown inside of a controlled area and is often used in construction sites. Many types of netting are not designed for permanent use, so you may need to search for a style that matches your gate color.

Security doors are not limited to standard sizes, and you can customize them to fit your needs and entryway dimensions. That's one of the fantastic things about security doors—they can be tailored to match your home. Keep in mind that a custom-sized security door will likely cost more than a standard size. 

While many gate hinges are often made of extremely durable materials, such as galvanized steel, they can wear out after many years. How quickly they wear out also depends on how much use they’ve endured. It’s also possible for the hinge screws to fall out, which weakens the hinge. Once a hinge wears out, it’s time for a replacement so your gate doesn’t start sagging.

Hiring a reliable gate company starts by finding an installer with at least five years of experience in your area. This method will ensure they understand local laws and regulations and are familiar with the permitting process. You can also ask the following questions to ensure a smooth installation:

  • Have you worked with my gate material in the past?

  • Do you have customer references I can call?

  • Are you fully insured?

  • Will you pull the necessary permits for the installation?

  • Do you provide any kind of warranty for the gate’s functionality?
