"Jason is a total professional in every sense. In a landscape of unaccountable gate and fencing contractors, Jason stands out as an excellent communicator, skilled craftsman, and a punctual project manager! I can't believe how quickly he installed our gate after we decided on design and measurements. So pleased with his excellent, detail-oriented work and his expertise. Thank you Jason!"

"Great. Phillip communicated well with scheduling and estimate. The work done was excellent, really made the deck look nice. Built new stair case and in addition, he built a new gate for our backyard fence. I felt I received excellent service and quality workmanship. It was also all done in a timely manner."

"Jason was very polite and professional about repairing our gate. I’m paraplegic and I was having some issues with the gate staying on track due to a broken piece I’ve been waiting to repair. Thankfully Jason was ready and handled it without any issue and helped me get the gate back on track since it’s very tough to do so in my wheelchair. I would 100% recommend this company and have no doubts you’ll be satisfied not only with the quality of work but also the timely outcome, but the respectful and helpfulness he proved. 10/10!!"

Driveway Gates questions, answered by experts

While there’s no hard evidence to support this idea, driveway gates at least provide an additional obstacle that may deter crime. After all, a would-be burglar or trespasser would have to break into the gate and the property itself. The extra work could encourage them to move onto a house without a driveway gate.

While entryways are seldom added to a house to increase the sale price, they are commonly constructed to increase the livability and enjoyment of a home. So, while they aren’t necessary, they do make for a more comfortable and luxurious-feeling home. Entryways are most valuable in areas of extreme heat, cold, or rain, as the space between the living area and the outdoors helps keep the outdoors outside. Plus, snow, wet boots, and mud are all corralled into one space that’s easy to clean.

When choosing a driveway gate, consider the fence material, whether you want an automatic gate or a manual one, and property limitations like the slope of your driveway. We recommend speaking with a professional driveway gate installer to see what types of gates will work on your property based on your fencing or home’s exterior. Keep in mind that driveway gates should range between 10 to 12 feet wide to ensure cars can easily maneuver through the gateway.

While many gate hinges are often made of extremely durable materials, such as galvanized steel, they can wear out after many years. How quickly they wear out also depends on how much use they’ve endured. It’s also possible for the hinge screws to fall out, which weakens the hinge. Once a hinge wears out, it’s time for a replacement so your gate doesn’t start sagging.

Generally, the standard 10- to 12-inch-long and 1- to 1.5-inch-diameter gate springs will work. However, if you have an especially wide, thick, or heavy garden gate, you may need to opt for a longer, broader—and pricier—model to ensure secure closure and good longevity. These typically range between 12 and 16 inches long and are over 1.5 inches in diameter.
