"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

Automatic gate openers last around 10 years, but this time span depends on several external factors, like the type of gate they're attached to and how well you’ve kept up with general maintenance. Despite lasting a decade, you should still expect to complete one or two repairs in that time, as some components will fail before others.

When making this decision, three essential factors come into play. For budget-conscious individuals, swing gates are the more economical choice. Despite the possibility of both gate types having similar dimensions, many types of sliding gates demand a more intricate opening mechanism and additional components, requiring electrical work for motors and signaling remotes, resulting in higher installation costs.

You don’t need a permit for an automatic gate in most cities because it isn’t a structural change to your home, but you need to check. A pro can help you with this and since we don’t recommend installing an automatic gate yourself, you should already be in contact with one, making this a frictionless question. Outside of permit requirements, you need to consider your homeowners association (HOA), as some are against gated homes.

While it is possible to install a manual gate yourself, it is generally not recommended. Professional installation is strongly advised, especially for automated or large driveway gates. Gates can be extremely heavy, sometimes weighing hundreds of pounds, which makes them bulky and dangerous to maneuver into place. Proper installation requires perfect positioning and balancing to ensure the gate swings smoothly and functions as intended. For automated gates, the wiring is also hazardous and typically requires a licensed electrician. Mistakes during a DIY installation can be costly, as materials alone can average around $1,000. Given the safety risks and the difficulty of achieving a proper setup, it is best to hire a professional gate installer.

Electric gates can be forced open if someone applies enough force to the edge furthest from the mounting bracket. You can reduce this risk by adding an electric lock to your gate opener. However, automatic gate openers generally help deter intruders, especially when paired with outdoor lighting and security cameras. Other home security tips include trimming trees surrounding the area for added visibility and installing motion sensors in your yard.
