We are a contracting company that offers quality work at a quality price. We do anything construction related including: General Remodeling Home Additions Concrete Decking Finished Floor Coverings Drywall Rough Framing Finished Carpentry Roofing Siding Bathrooms Kitchens Cabinets Painting Plumbing Electrical

"Brian and his crew were professional, courteous and able to do all of the work we needed done. They laid hardwood and installed the baseboards; rebuilt some wall areas; installed the cabinets, cabinet trim and tile backsplash. They also installed new tile on the fireplace. I was concerned that a company good at finish carpentry could also be good at tile work, but he has different people for different jobs. He provided a written estimate and he did stay true to the estimate/contract. No hidden costs. It all looks great! I am very happy with it. It was a good value for the work done. The only downside was scheduling. They were working on several projects and came to do work every week, but it is not like they could come and stay until all the work was done. We had a few parts we were waiting on as well, and the counter top company caused a 3-week delay. Some things just can't be helped."

Driveway Gates questions, answered by experts

If you only use your gate as a pedestrian, walking through without a vehicle, you’re fine to stick with a single fence gate. If your fence opening needs to accommodate vehicles of any kind, from cars to trucks to 4-wheelers, then a double fence gate will suit the space much better and give you more freedom. 

Your wooden gate post hole should be a third to a half of the height of the post. Also, note that the diameter of the post hole should be three times the diameter of the post. You should set the post in concrete to ensure a long-lasting and durable post that will withstand the test of time.

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. 

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.

Ideally, your gate would swing both in and out. However, if it can only open in one direction, it's generally best for the gate to swing inward. There are exceptions, however. For example, if your property is on a slope, your gate may not be able to swing in.

Keep in mind that there may be local building codes that require your gate to swing inward.
