"I needed a gate added to an existing fence. They were able to get the parts needed and install on the same day I requested the job! I’m impressed with the speed and efficiency of their work."

"Sales person, Chris, is easy to deal with; the 3 installer guys worked quickly and the workmanship turned out really well; Only slight issue was we waited for about 2 weeks for one gate that was not delivered on time of scheduled installation to be finally installed. But overall, we're satisfied with the job result!"

"Called Old South Iron Works and spoke to Jeff Barbie. Told him what we were looking to get done on our house. He came out the next day with his helper Steven and measured everything and went over all the options that we can get done on our railings and gate. Took two weeks for them to make everything and install it and we couldnt be happier with how it came out. Old South iron works paid close detail to there work making sure everything was inline and level. They cleaned up there mess that was made and were very nice to deal with and work with. I think your find that your really like working this Old South."

Gate Repair questions, answered by experts

No, you can’t use a garage door opener as a gate opener. Automatic garage door openers and automatic gate openers serve similar functions and may even operate similarly via remote control; however, they aren’t interchangeable. Garage door openers aren’t intended for outdoor use and can’t withstand exposure to the elements.

A Trex gate costs $750 plus another $200 for the hardware pack necessary for installation. By contrast, Trex fencing ranges in price from $22 to $38 per linear foot, so you may pay a lot or a little depending on just how much space you need to enclose in your yard. 

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.

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.

Automatic gates don’t use too much electricity, and you should see a minimal effect on your utility bill. In fact, certain gate systems are entirely self-sufficient and rely on solar panels attached to or near the gate to power the motor. While a gate is large and there is a powerful motor moving it, it’s not something that sees constant use throughout the day. For most automatic gates, expect to see a utility bill increase of only around $10 per month.
