"Professional, dependable, quality goods & precision workmanship. At first, I was skeptical because there were only 2 workmen (the owner & coworker). My skepticism turned to amazement the moment they began setting up tools, materials, installing posts & fence. The clean up was impeccable. They went above & beyond by fixing/adjusting an existing gate handle & cleaning the gate. Richard, the owner, always phoned ahead or knock on arrival. Thank you! Note: my neighbor was amazed that only 2 men did such a good job! I would gladly recommend this contractor. Sincerely, Paula"

"I had Island Automated Gate install a driveway gate several years ago, and I stay in contact with them for any maintenance and service needs. When I have any concerns, they respond quickly to my call and will have a Technician here within 24 hours. Everyone I have dealt with has always been polite and respectful. What a great group of very nice people!"

"He was very knowledgeable in our system. The previous company hadn't changed the batteries in many years we thought the beeping noise was a big problem and a major repair. It turns out it was old batteries. He explained they should be changed every 3 to 4 years the batteries were almost 10 years old."

"Valentino and his crew were great. The storm doors Valentino suggested are perfect for the space. The crew took their time to install and make sure the fit and swing of the doors were perfect. His crew were clean, polite, and responded to every question or concern I had with a smile."

"Double Tree is Awesome. Eddy  is amazing in the
tree. He took down a very large pine tree that was breaking my driveway
and ground the stump. His crew cleaned my entire front yard of sticks,
leaves and pine needles. They even cleaned the driveway, walkway and
front porch. My yard looks beautiful now. They are friendly, knowledgable, professional
 and caring as if the trees were their own.I recommend them to everyone,
my family, friends, neighbors and co-workers. Very professional. I will
hire them again for future trees.

Driveway Gates questions, answered by experts

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.

Yes, most electric and automatic gates can be opened manually. They are equipped with a manual override or release mechanism that detaches the motor from the gate, allowing it to be moved by hand. This feature is essential during power outages or other emergencies.

To activate the manual override, you will typically need a specific key or tool. In some cases, you may also need a screwdriver to remove a cover to access the release mechanism. The use of a key is a common security measure to prevent unauthorized individuals from manually opening the gate.

Because every model is different, it is highly recommended to consult your gate's user manual to familiarize yourself with the specific procedure before you need to use it. Keep any necessary keys or tools in an accessible location. Be aware that automatic gates can be very heavy, so opening and closing them manually may be difficult.

In North America, electric gates are also subject to the UL 325 Standard for Safety, which includes provisions to allow emergency responders to access the property.

Yes, driveway gates can help secure your home by deterring burglars from accessing your property. Climbing a gate slows down burglars while also attracting attention to your gate. If you live further down your property and want to increase security, you can also install a gate security camera that connects to your gate and monitors the area for suspicious activity.

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.

Hiring a reliable gate company starts by finding an installer with at least five years of experience in your area. This method will ensure they understand local laws and regulations and are familiar with the permitting process. You can also ask the following questions to ensure a smooth installation:

  • Have you worked with my gate material in the past?

  • Do you have customer references I can call?

  • Are you fully insured?

  • Will you pull the necessary permits for the installation?

  • Do you provide any kind of warranty for the gate’s functionality?
