Q: What is the best place to put a gate?

• <div><p>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.</p></div>

Q: How do I stop my dog from going under my wrought iron gate?

• <div><p>Your dog might be able to slip underneath chewable, flexible fabric gate covers. When you have a wayward woofer, using wooden panels that come within an inch or two of the ground is the most secure option. You may need a metal defense barrier dug into the soil to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/keep-dogs-from-digging-under-fence.htm">keep your dog from digging under your fence</a> or gate.</p></div>

Q: How much smaller should a wooden gate be than the opening?

• <div><p>Your gate should be 3/4 to an inch smaller than the opening. The opening size that you need for your gate can vary depending on your hinge type. You may also need to add reinforcing braces if the gap between your gate and the fence is not uniform from top to bottom.</p></div>

Q: Can electric gates be opened manually?

• <div><p>Electric gates have a manual override switch that detaches the motor from the opening mechanism. For most gates, this requires a key as a deterrent to thieves or trespassers forcing open your gate. Be aware that many automatic or electric gates are very heavy, so it may be difficult to close the gate if you are fine with manually opening it. </p></div>

Q: What is the gap between double gates?

• <div><p>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. </p></div>

Perfect. From the initial quote to the finished driveway the owner was very professional. The quote was very competitive and the work was spectacular, both in quality and in timeliness. Highly recommend C&L Asphalt to anyone in need of Asphalt or concrete work.

Anthony's Asphalt had sealed our driveway for us two years earlier, but we were out of their normal service area and I wasn't sure if they would be willing to do it again without charging a substantial fee for the drive. I really wanted to use Anthony's since they were the only seal coaters near...
