How do you stop a gate from slamming in the wind?

• <div><p>Other mechanisms can help you keep your gate securely shut. Secure gate latch types will do the job, such as magnetic or spring-loading, self-closing lever varieties, or <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/diy-automatic-gate-opener-installation.htm">automatic gate openers</a>. However, they won’t control the speed at which the gate closes. You can purchase slam plates that use rubber buffers to reduce noise and the potential damage-inducing impact of a fast-closing, heavy gate.</p></div>

Q: Do gate installations include warranties?

• <div><p>Many contractors offer warranties for materials and labor. Confirm terms before hiring.</p></div>

Q: How long does a driveway gate last?

• <div><p>Driveway gates can last anywhere from 10 to 30 years, depending on how well you maintain your gate, the material type, how frequently you use it, and whether you choose an automatic or manual gate. Automatic gates generally require more maintenance than manual gates due to their added <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/parts-of-sliding-gate.htm">sliding gate mechanisms</a>, which can go out from frequent use. </p></div>

Q: Can I attach a wood extension to a vinyl gate?

• <div><p>Whether you can attach a wood extension to a vinyl gate depends on the gate's construction. Some vinyl gates are sturdy enough to allow wood or vinyl boards to be attached. Many, however, have hollow frames that may not hold screws or heavy extensions securely. For these, consider alternative extension options such as a rubber flap or chicken wire.</p></div>

Q: What are other home security systems I should consider installing?

• <div><p>In addition to a doorbell camera, you can upgrade your home&rsquo;s security with several different features. <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/backyard-security.htm">Backyard security</a>, for instance, may include a mix of security cameras, lighting, and fencing. Additional security cameras around your property, as well as a total smart security system with an alarm connected to your smartphone, are also advisable. This could well be worth the cost for the peace of mind alone, but <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-a-security-system-affect-home-insurance.htm">home security systems <i>also</i> lower home insurance costs</a>. </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.
