Dan Buranen founded Top Line Fence in 1991, but his passion for fences started long before his professional career. As a child, he spent hours building with Erector Sets and Lincoln Logs. This hobby evolved into subcontracting for fence companies, dabbling with fence projects for his own clients, and ultimately launching his own company. Today, he's fiercely dedicated to his home state of Minnesota and the Twin Cities area customers who rely on him for custom, quality fence solutions. Hiring people he knows and trusts, Dan oversees every project from start to finish. The company is driven by his strong work ethic and hands-on approach, ensuring an exceptional experience and results that exceed expectations. The company can maintain its high-quality control and workmanship standards with 10 acres of property for receiving and storing fence materials. Find out how Top Line Fence can design and build the right fence for your home or business, or simply contact us for a FREE estimate today.

"The only problem I saw was the barb wire was not straight on a 30 foot section and the dirt around a few of the posts was not packed right. The price was pretty good and they did the job the next day after estimate. One of the workers was kind of rude to me after the job was done? all in all I may hire them again but will get more than 1 estimate next time"

Driveway Gates questions, answered by experts

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.

It might be possible to install your own manual driveway gate rather than an automatic one, but we don’t recommend it. Driveway gates are large, heavy, and bulky, and getting them to your house and maneuvering them for installation can be dangerous. It’s also challenging to install the gate and balance it perfectly so that it functions as expected, and wiring any automation mechanisms for your gate is also dangerous and requires help from an electrician. We recommend leaving the work to a professional driveway gate installer.

For homeowners concerned about security, an electric gate may offer peace of mind. Electric gates will require a code or remote to open, so you don’t have to worry about young children getting out of the yard or someone breaking onto your property by simply swinging open the gate. But because it needs power to operate, installing an electric gate will be more complex and expensive.

Costs depend on system type, labor rates, and additional features like smart integration or professional monitoring.

Yes, professionals can install gates with locking mechanisms and access control systems for added security.
