"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 built us a gate with an electronic opener from scratch.  He built the frame, did the wiring, constructed the gate itself, and installed a keypad.  It's an impressive piece of work, this gate!  Two other companies bid the job, but one was ridiculously high and the other did not sound confident that they could pull it off successfully.  Tim built us an awesome gate to our specifications for a reasonable price.  We have had the gate for two years, and I wrote a review after he built it.  I am updating my review, however, to add that he maintains this gate like the Holy Grail!  There is so much pride in construction here- if something needs to be adjusted or repaired and I call or text, I swear Tim and his son appear magically and fix it right up.  I am so happy that we went with Penniston Fence for this job.  Tim is not one of those to do a disappearing act if there is a problem.  He has been very good to us and to our gate and I am very grateful!  We also recommended him to our neighbors across the street, and he built them a gorgeous cedar fence around their backyard that they love.  He does really great work.  You need to call him.  :)

"We hired dirt to done to help us renovate our rental home. They were very professional and finished quickly. They made the home look so beautiful! Matthew came to gave us an estimate and discussed design ideas and he brought an estimate back to us in a couple days that was well in our budget. The house needed so much work we thought it would turn out “just alright” for the money. We were wrong it turned out amazing!!I it turned out so much better than we had anticipated. They replaced trim, repaired drywall, repaired doors and even repaired the ceilings and cracks. They installed new flooring throughout the home. The repairs and paint looks so good you can’t tell that there was ever things to fix. The remodeled kitchen turned out like a dream!! It is amazing. All in Matthew was very informative in the hows, when’s and whys and the quality of work they did was above and beyond what we were promised!! We will absolutely recommend dirt to done for your renovations."

Driveway Gates questions, answered by experts

Ideally, a gate should be able to swing both in and out. However, if it can only open in one direction, it is generally best for it to swing inward. This is often the safest option, especially for deck gates near steps, as you'll want the gate to swing away from the stairs. An inward swing also prevents the gate from opening into a public space, like a sidewalk, and can be more convenient when carrying heavy items like a wheelbarrow into a garden.

There are exceptions, however. The layout of your property may require a different approach. For example, if your property is on a slope, the gate may not be able to swing inward. You should also ensure the gate can open fully without colliding with any objects or blocking access to other areas. For a backyard garden gate where public access isn't a concern, the direction it swings is largely a matter of personal preference. Finally, always check your local building codes, as they may have specific requirements for which way a gate must swing.

Yes, you can convert manual gates to electric operation. Installing a motor and an opening device from a kit allows you to convert any gate so it can open and close automatically. Be sure to buy the correct type of opener for your gate style. For example, some openers are specific to swinging gates, while others are for sliding gates. Get familiar with your swinging or sliding gate parts before you go shopping to avoid having to return to the store for the correct opener.

The best under-gate dog barrier is one that extends to the ground. This effectively keeps dogs in and won't give them room to squeeze through. However, dogs that dig can still get under the barrier. Deter digging by paving the ground beneath the gate or filling it in with rocks or gravel. Be careful using wire to extend dog gates, as the sharp ends may cut or hurt your dog's paws.

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.
