"I recently backed into my garage door off-setting some of the panels, causing minor damage which prevented it from opening. The young man came out, on time as promised. Looked at the door, then said he could repair it if I didn’t want the expense of replacing damaged panels. I was all about saving a few bucks and just wanted the door operating for now. After a short span of time he was able the straighten the damage panels and the door in operating as normal. Great Job!!"

"From filling out the online for to inquire, to the estimate, to the actual work being done was lightning fast. I was contacted the day after filling a form. They sent an estimator to my home quickly. They provided a detailed estimate for the fence as well as plans for me to look over and approve. The estimate for install after I approved their quote was 4-5 weeks out, which would have put us to June 22 for install. They contacted me about a week PRIOR to that date to see if they could install sooner! It was moved up by about 5 days and we could not be happier with it. The fence itself is cedar, was installed within a few hours. The installers were friendly. They explained what they were doing, how the latch in the gate worked, and made sure I had no other questions prior to leaving the jobsite. I would highly recommend these guys to anyone. From first contact through completion, I felt well taken care of. The work is quality, the people friendly, and service was excellent"

"Working with this contractor on our fence and deck project was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. Not only was he a quick and hard worker, but his attention to detail and commitment to quality were evident in every task he undertook. He skillfully replaced an entire side of our fence, including both gates, ensuring that the new installations seamlessly matched the existing structure. Moreover, his repairs on our deck were thorough and thoughtful. By replacing rotten boards, securing loose boards, support beams, and stairs, and even painting the deck, he revitalized an area that had been in dire need of attention. What set this contractor apart was not just his craftsmanship but his professionalism and reliability. The entire scope of work was completed within the three-day timeframe he initially projected, showcasing his efficiency and ability to manage time effectively. He was not only timely but also fair and trustworthy, qualities that are paramount when inviting someone to work on your home. His willingness to refer us to a trusted colleague for interior work further demonstrated his commitment to meeting our needs beyond his immediate scope of expertise. The quality of work was exceptional across the board, leaving no doubt that we will be engaging his services again for a forthcoming large project. Based on our highly positive experience, I would unequivocally recommend him to anyone looking for a skilled, reliable, and diligent contractor."

Gate Repair questions, answered by experts

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.

The cost to install a gate varies widely, with a typical range between $1,500 and $7,000. The average cost is around $3,500. However, the final price can be as low as $200 for a simple gate or as high as $12,000 for a large, automated security gate.

Key factors that determine the installation cost include:

  • Gate Material: This is a primary cost factor. Chain-link and vinyl are the most affordable, while wood and PVC are mid-range options. Wrought iron, aluminum, and other metals are the most expensive materials.

  • Automation: Automated gates are significantly more expensive than manual ones because they require motors, sensors, controls, and electrical installation.

  • Size and Type: The dimensions and style of the gate (e.g., swinging vs. sliding) will impact the price.

  • Security Level: Gates with advanced security features will increase the overall cost.

It can cost $100 to $500 to purchase and install a gate opener. You can use ready-made kits that come with DIY instructions. If you hire a professional gate installer to handle the job, expect to pay an average of $100 per hour or between $200 and $500.

While entryways are seldom added to a house to increase the sale price, they are commonly constructed to increase the livability and enjoyment of a home. So, while they aren’t necessary, they do make for a more comfortable and luxurious-feeling home. Entryways are most valuable in areas of extreme heat, cold, or rain, as the space between the living area and the outdoors helps keep the outdoors outside. Plus, snow, wet boots, and mud are all corralled into one space that’s easy to clean.

Installation typically takes 1-3 days, depending on the gate type and site conditions.
