When is replacing a wrought iron gate a better option than covering it for privacy purposes?

• <div><p>Is your wrought iron gate really rusty or in need of major repair work? Replacing it with a gate with built-in privacy screening may be easier and, in some cases, more economical. Professional <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-it-cost-repair-fence.htm">fence or gate repair costs</a> average $100 to $400, and you may be able to get a new gate for the same price.</p></div>

How much does a Trex gate cost?

• <div><p>A Trex gate costs <b>$750 </b>plus another <b>$200</b> for the hardware pack necessary for installation.

Q: Can electric gates be opened manually?

• <div><p>Electric gates have a manual override switch that detaches the motor from the opening mechanism. For most gates, this requires a key as a deterrent to thieves or trespassers forcing open your gate. Be aware that many automatic or electric gates are very heavy, so it may be difficult to close the gate if you are fine with manually opening it. </p></div>

Q: Can electric gates be forced open?

• <div><p>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 <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/home-security-tips.htm">home security tips</a> include trimming trees surrounding the area for added visibility and installing motion sensors in your yard.</p></div>

Q: What is the gap between double gates?

• <div><p>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. </p></div>

These guys are very good. I highly recommend them. They did three tasks, stabilizing a cracked concrete floor in a shed, stabilizing my 30 year old concrete driveway, and stabilizing my 30 year old modular home foundation that was built out of specs. Well done!
