"I hired Daniel to upgrade the wiring and install a grounded outlet in an 80 year old house to accept a refrigerator. He did an excellent job, and went through the whole house and identified the wiring, what type, which fuses are connected to which outlets (something that two other very experienced electricians were unable to do). While wiring is safe there were some very circuirtuous and unexpected routes taken in this old house which, in one evening, he was able to figure out. He will be doing a lot more electrical work for me. My first experience with Danny's work was when a huge tree fell on my property. He removed the tree for a very good price, sawed it neatly into logs and even swept out the lawn after removal. He also does moving (excellent rates) he will be doing this week for me, fixes sliding glass doors, drywall and carpentry work. He is a jack of all trades trained by his father (who owned a contracting buiness) from a young age. Forgot to mention, one of his primary businesses is as a locksmith and he put in the lock on my front door. For most jobs large and small, no need to look further."

"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.

"All went well. The demolition of the old porch went well. The construction of the two car garage also went well. Coordination with the other members of the team (masonry, electrician) went well and was timed well.  Project was on time and completed on time.  All workers worked well and displayed a high level of skill for their trade.
After the job was completed I received very favorable comments from neighbors about the finished product.

Driveway Gates FAQs, answered by experts

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.

Locksmiths offer keyless entry systems, high-security locks, panic bars, electronic access control, and biometric security solutions.

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.

When making this decision, three essential factors come into play. For budget-conscious individuals, swing gates are the more economical choice. Despite the possibility of both gate types having similar dimensions, many types of sliding gates demand a more intricate opening mechanism and additional components, requiring electrical work for motors and signaling remotes, resulting in higher installation costs.
