Q: Should a gate be higher than the fence?

• <div><p>A gate shouldn&rsquo;t be higher or lower than the fence it's attached to. If the gate is lower than the fence, it encourages strangers to peek at your property. If the gate is higher than the fence, it just looks weird. Gates allow for increased security and aesthetics, so ensure the gate rests at the same height as the fence.</p></div>

Q: How much smaller should a wooden gate be than the opening?

• <div><p>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.</p></div>

Q: Do I need a permit to install a gate?

• <div><p>In most cases, you will need a permit to install a gate or fence on your property. Before your local municipality can issue a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/do-i-really-need-building-permit.htm">building permit</a>, you might also need a site plan or survey to identify property lines. Otherwise, you could infringe on your neighbor&rsquo;s property, leading to having to pay to take down and re-erect the fence. Permits for a gate and fence usually cost under <b>$100</b>. Luckily, your gate installation company will usually pull the permits for you and handle all of the red tape.</p></div>

Q: How do different components impact the price of a security system installation?

• <div><p>Costs depend on system type, labor rates, and additional features like smart integration or professional monitoring.</p></div>

Q: Which is better, a storm door or a security door?

• <div><p>Each has its use, depending on the scenario. Security doors are primarily intended to keep people out of the home, while storm doors are used to protect the home from extreme weather. Both tend to be made from heavy-duty metal and may include glass panels to allow light to enter the home. Storm doors can feature mesh screens, just like screen doors, to allow for increased ventilation and to keep out pests. Security doors rarely, if ever, have mesh screens.</p></div>

It was great. They had good pricing and good service. I was worried about the dumpster being in the driveway and scratching the driveway. They made sure they did not scratch and they made sure it properly put down and didn't drag.
