Is a security door worth it?

• <div><p>Depending on your needs and wants, investing in a security door can be well worth the cost. Now that you know the pros and cons, you can decide if it’s a purchase that makes sense for your family. If you’re ready to have one installed in your home, look into security door installers in your area.</p></div>

How long does it take to build a driveway gate?

• <div><p>Assuming the site is prepped and you have all the tools and materials ready, you should budget the better part of a day to build a driveway gate. This can depend on your DIY experience and which materials you’ve chosen, such as building from scratch or using a prefabricated option. The gate size and finishing touches, like painting or staining, can also add to the overall time budget.</p></div>

Can I install my own driveway gate?

• <div><p>It might be possible to install your own manual driveway gate rather than an automatic one, but we don’t recommend it. Driveway gates are large, heavy, and bulky, and getting them to your house and maneuvering them for installation can be dangerous. It’s also challenging to install the gate and balance it perfectly so that it functions as expected, and wiring any automation mechanisms for your gate is also dangerous and requires help from an electrician. We recommend leaving the work to a professional driveway gate installer.</p></div>

Q: Do installations include safety checks?

• <div><p>Yes, most services include safety checks and anchoring to ensure stability. Confirm with your provider.</p></div>

Q: Should a wooden gate swing in or out?

• <div><p>Ideally, your gate would swing both in and out. However, if it can only open in one direction, it's generally best for the gate to swing inward. There are exceptions, however. For example, if your property is on a slope, your gate may not be able to swing in.</p><p>Keep in mind that there may be local building codes that require your gate to swing inward.</p></div>

Bad experience asked for them to power wash my fence it had algae and my mailbox and patio. He quoted 250.00 for the fence and 150.00 for the patio. I said ok. He gave me a day that he would return to do the job June 20, 2025. I also asked him to blast out the weeds on the lip of the driveway...

Sam was incredibly professional and personable. The final project (driveway regrade and trailer removal/site cleanup and prep) was exactly what I needed and it was done ahead of schedule. Would definitely recommend it!

Mike installed this fence for us many years ago and I needed a gate replacement after a tree limb fell on it. Mike was able to locate a replacement and installed it quickly and at a very reasonable cost. Great company to do business with.

The owner George and his crew were very punctual and completed the work in one day. They took away any pieces of the old driveway that had to be broken up before the new surface was put down. Our driveway looks spectacular. We would highly recommend this company for their services.
