"Kent Lorenzen, the owner of Elite Fencing, did an outstanding job.  An example of his professionalism that pleased me was his promptness in responding to my initial request for an estimate. He was willing to work with me in order to design the type of fence that I wanted.  He shared multiple examples via email with me and answered all my questions promptly.  I loved the design that I selected and was so pleased because I had other fence companies tell me it wouldn't work.  Once the design was determined the remaining process went smoothly with excellent communication. I always knew when they would be arriving and exactly what would be done.
The only problem encountered was a delay on the delivery of materials which was not the fault of Elite Fencing; however, when the final bill arrived, he had given me a discount because of the delay.  The quality of the work was excellent, the gates installed are beautifully designed with quality hardware, the cleanup was thorough, and the total project was completed exactly as I wanted.  I am completely satisfied with the appearance of the fence and also with the courtesy displayed by his employees.  Professionalism, integrity, and pride are clearly evident in the work that he did for me.

Driveway Gates questions, answered by experts

Your gate should be 3/4 to an inch smaller than the opening. The opening size that you need for your gate can vary depending on your hinge type. You may also need to add reinforcing braces if the gap between your gate and the fence is not uniform from top to bottom.

Yes, most services include safety checks and anchoring to ensure stability. Confirm with your provider.

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.

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 fence or gate repair costs average $100 to $400, and you may be able to get a new gate for the same price.

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.
