"Job went perfect. I was approved for financing the day I called. When the contractor came out for the bid, he made a materials and labor suggestion based on our needs. The original estimate of 9k worth of unnecessary privacy fencing, that I could not afford, went down to 2.5k of sturdy chain link providing a safe play space for our rescue dog. The contractor said they are more interested in helping customers out than making large sales. The fence is very professional. It is even wired into the ground so our dog cannot dig under it. The city inspector said it was a "perfect" construction job. Finished in under 8 hours. Roughly 100 feet of chain link, posts, concrete, plus gate. High quality materials and the yard was spotless when the job was finished. Very trustworthy. I feel strongly that I got what I paid for. Peace of mind that my dog, a known short fence jumper, is safe as well as my yard and padlocked gate. The most important part, is that my dog LOVES the freedom of having a large yard to run freely in."

"I bought the big deal from InvoGreen - and they were out and had the mulch down with 2 days!  I had only given written instructions - they were a bit unusual, but the work was done exactly as I had hoped.  The area was clean and neat - and everything was done just ahead of the week of rain that was planned.

"Tim did a great job.  I received 3 bids, Penniston was well under the high bid and a little over the low bid.  I chose Penniston because I felt comfortable with Tim when I met him.  He showed up for our initial appointment on time, walked the property with me, made some suggestions, emailed me a proposal the next morning.  When I contacted him to do the install he gave me a date to start the job.  He showed up on that day, removed the old fence, drilled the post holes and contacted the Creve Coeur inspector. The following day after the inspection he installed the entire fence.  We ordered a arched gate that he told us would take about 3 weeks to get from his supplier.  When the gate came in(within 3 weeks) he contacted me and came out on Saturday and installed the gate.  We re just waiting for the final approval from the Creve Coeur inspector. The fence looks great and Tim has been a pleasure to work with.  I would highly recommend Tim  Penniston.

"Excellent attitude and quality of service.  I purchased this Big Deal to try out a home improvement company that I could use for larger jobs in the future.  I was not disappointed.  Josh and his associate were VERY professional and friendly even though my job consisted of a bunch of little pieces to be done.  When they said no job was too small or too big, they really meant it.  I liked them so much I've already hired them again to do handyman repairs throughout the home and I will keep them in mind for bigger home improvement projects in the future.  For me, having pleasant, professional people help me keep my 85-year old Webster Groves home maintained is very important.  I like to feel I have a team supporting me in my ongoing efforts to improve and maintain the appearance and workings of my house.  I count Josh and his associates as members of my team now!

Gate Repair questions, answered by experts

In most cases, you will need a permit to install a new driveway or property gate. An exception might be if you are simply replacing an existing gate. Before issuing a permit, your local municipality may require a site plan or survey to verify property lines and prevent encroachment on a neighbor's property. Permits for a gate typically cost under $100. Be aware that corner properties may have additional restrictions on gate height or style. It's wise to confirm permit requirements with your local building department or your gate installation company, which can usually handle the entire permitting process for you.

Yes, most electric and automatic gates can be opened manually. They are equipped with a manual override or release mechanism that detaches the motor from the gate, allowing it to be moved by hand. This feature is essential during power outages or other emergencies.

To activate the manual override, you will typically need a specific key or tool. In some cases, you may also need a screwdriver to remove a cover to access the release mechanism. The use of a key is a common security measure to prevent unauthorized individuals from manually opening the gate.

Because every model is different, it is highly recommended to consult your gate's user manual to familiarize yourself with the specific procedure before you need to use it. Keep any necessary keys or tools in an accessible location. Be aware that automatic gates can be very heavy, so opening and closing them manually may be difficult.

In North America, electric gates are also subject to the UL 325 Standard for Safety, which includes provisions to allow emergency responders to access the property.

Driveway gates can last anywhere from 10 to 30 years, depending on how well you maintain your gate, the material type, how frequently you use it, and whether you choose an automatic or manual gate. Automatic gates generally require more maintenance than manual gates due to their added sliding gate mechanisms, which can go out from frequent use.

Installing a gate on your property is often a worthwhile investment, despite the initial expense. Gates enhance your home's curb appeal and can increase its property value, making them more attractive to potential homebuyers. They provide significant security benefits by keeping out unwanted guests and increasing privacy for your household. Additionally, a gate can help keep children and pets safely contained in your yard.

For driveway gates, automatic versions are particularly convenient and tend to add more value than manual ones. The choice of gate material also plays a role in both aesthetic appeal and security. Beyond driveways, side gates can improve accessibility to your rear yard, making the outdoor space more usable. Overall, whether for security, safety, or aesthetics, installing a gate is a valuable addition to a property.

When choosing a driveway gate, consider the fence material, whether you want an automatic gate or a manual one, and property limitations like the slope of your driveway. We recommend speaking with a professional driveway gate installer to see what types of gates will work on your property based on your fencing or home’s exterior. Keep in mind that driveway gates should range between 10 to 12 feet wide to ensure cars can easily maneuver through the gateway.
