"Straight Forward was one of the many fencing companies that my boyfriend and I had come out to give us an estimate when we were looking to get a new fence. Our whole experience with Straight Forward was remarkable, from start to finish. The owner, Gary was so personal, in comparison to the other companies we had come out. Before we even received a quote back, we knew we wanted to hire his company, regardless of the price (which ended up being very reasonable and awesome anyways). It seemed that he knew what he was doing and he was even informative to us And let us know the process of what his crew would be doing. Once the polite and respectful workers began to work, they were done within less than two days. Keep in mind how impressive this is due to the fact that we had two gates installed, a front fence on both sides of our house, and the remaining perimeter of our decent sized backyard. Once the fence was finished being installed, the workers had cleaned up all of the trash and it was like they had never been there! Except for the fact that we now have a beautiful, new fence to adore. We would hire Straight Forward again in a heart beat and would recommend them to anyone looking for a job well done!"

"York Fence did an outstanding job! Everyone I dealt with provided first rate customer service and was eager to answer any questions I had. From the initial contact, estimate, paperwork, and installation, communication was excellent. Tino and his entire crew were experienced, highly skilled professionals, and built a beautiful fence for us. The job was completed quickly and they cleaned up completely. We could not be happier with the results and based on my experience I highly recommend York Fence."

"I couldn’t be happier with the PVC fence installation done by Elite Fencing. From start to finish, everything was handled professionally and efficiently. Nivaldo, the owner, was hands-on throughout the process, making sure every detail was done right. The quality of the work really stands out, the fence looks clean, solid, and completely transformed the property. The crew showed up on time, worked hard, and left everything neat when they finished. If you’re looking for reliable work and top-tier results, I highly recommend Elite Fencing. Nivaldo and his team delivered exactly what they promised."

"We are very happy with our new fence. Tom was to our house within a week when we first called to discuss the job. We sent him pictures of the custom fence we were looking to have added on on side of our driveway about 80 feet. After we selected him he brought by a small sample of how it would look. We wanted a fence style that you don't see very often on East coast. Tom was the best quote we received and was very confident he could complete the custom fence to our liking. Tom does all the work and is busy so you must be patient. Once he got to our project he was done in a few days.

Driveway Gates questions, answered by experts

Installation typically takes 1-3 days, depending on the gate type and site conditions.

Your wooden gate post hole should be a third to a half of the height of the post. Also, note that the diameter of the post hole should be three times the diameter of the post. You should set the post in concrete to ensure a long-lasting and durable post that will withstand the test of time.

Many security doors come with clear and easy-to-follow installation instructions. Some even include predrilled holes and mounting hardware, making the process smoother. If you're a handy DIY enthusiast, you might find it enjoyable to take on installing a security door.

However, if you're uncomfortable with DIY tasks or want to ensure a flawless installation, you can always seek the help of a local door installer. They have the expertise and experience to get the job done efficiently and correctly.

In most cases, you will need a permit to install a new driveway or property gate. An exception might be if you are simply replacing an existing gate. Before issuing a permit, your local municipality may require a site plan or survey to verify property lines and prevent encroachment on a neighbor's property. Permits for a gate typically cost under $100. Be aware that corner properties may have additional restrictions on gate height or style. It's wise to confirm permit requirements with your local building department or your gate installation company, which can usually handle the entire permitting process for you.

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.
