"Garcia Fence Inc. was professional, polite, and fast. They did an amazing job removing and installing two fences on the property. They made sure there were no gaps, so our dog wouldn’t be able to escape—which gave us real peace of mind. After the job was done, they walked the property with me and showed us how to use the new locks. I appreciate their attention to detail and excellent customer service. I would absolutely recommend them."

"Mr. Beeler actually slipped in to examine job in between jobs in the area. He took his time in making sure the mortar color would match for repair work. Examined whole house to see if other work needed to be done - he invented nothing more than what we wanted. Everything was done within a week, we didn't need to be there. Advised before pay, examine and if issues he'd come out and repair. Very satisfied, have already recommended to next door neighbor who saw him working while we were away. Would not hesitate in calling for his help again."

"I am a retired Army Officer of 31 years. I know what I want and expect individuals to be their best. From the beginning Thomas and Tiffany took charge of my Security Gate on my farm and brought it up to my requests. They were professional and stayed on the project to my satisfaction. I highly recommend them for any project. They can be trusted on any project. They will do you right. Thank you guys."

"We moved here to Asheboro in November. We purchased our first home which was a nightmare in this crazy market. We decided we would not settle so we would look till we found our perfect home. Well we found it here in Asheboro. Saturday night for us was devastating. We had a tiki torch that ended up sparking and landing in the new pine needles. Next thing we heard a pop and our window was broke and sunroom on fire. We where able to get it under control but the damage for us was heartbreaking. First thing Sunday we looked up companies that can fix the damage. We are so blessed to find TLK Construction they came out on that Sunday went through all that needed to be done and sent us a quote that evening. They came out and not only started the work but also did some things that my husband and I couldn't do. We are truly grateful for everything they have done through this whole process. Explaining what was best. They take pride in their work and they do an amazing job. Needless to say we have found our new handyman and much more. I would recommend TLK to anyone that needs anything done. Not only are they reliable they are extremely fair in the pricing. Thanks so much TLK . We give you 5 stars wish we could give you more. Ed and Laurie Winter."

"The guys came on the first day to look over the work to make sure we were all on the same page.  We walked through the project and quote they had provided.  After that, they got to work on the repairs.  It took a little longer than that predicted, but I'm very happy with the results.  It's hard to pick out where the plumbers cut the holes in the drywall to access pipes, excellent work.

Driveway Gates questions, answered by experts

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.

Double gates come with the same gaps as single gates, with hinges taking up a quarter of an inch of space. The difference is that double fence gates also have a center gap, which needs a little more clearance. Space the center gap at half an inch instead of the usual three-eighths of an inch for a single gate. 

The obvious disadvantage of an automatic gate is that it runs on electricity. If the power goes out, it won’t open or close unless there’s a manual override. Many homeowners will need a backup generator so they don’t get stuck on either side of the gate, particularly when looking to park a vehicle. Automatic gates are also much more complicated than manual gates, with tech-heavy components that make them more expensive to repair.

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.

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.
