"I got Jim's voicemail when I called but he returned the call promptly.  He was punctual in arriving for the estimate and provided the most competitive estimate combination of price and time to completion.  We chose a color for the vinyl that nearly matched the original siding (the selection samples he had were from new siding and the siding on the house had weathered some over 17 years).  I gave him a deposit and he said he'd get started.  His folks did get started as promised but his siding supplier gave them the wrong color of siding.  His crew put it up before either him or I got a look as the color.  Jim got to see it before I did and called me to warn me.  It took a couple of extra days (still within my timeframe) but he redid it with right color.  It's not a perfect match (hard to do unless your replace it all) but it looks pertty good!  His guys used some of the salvageable siding from the back to complete the replacement on the side that saved me a little money and matched the side even better than the back.  They did a decent job on the masonry repair too.       "

"This company has a man in Columbus supervising a building rehab crew.  The man normally does the work in the evenings or weekends for extra monies.  He will call to set up an appointment.  If delayed or needs to reschedule. he will contact you.  He did work efficiently and neatly.  As he sees difficulties or problems that may occur, home owners are consulted.  I kept his personal # to call if I need services again.

Driveway Gates questions, answered by experts

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.

Yes, professionals can install gates with locking mechanisms and access control systems for added security.

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.

The best direction for a gate to swing depends on its location and purpose, but swinging inward is the general rule. An inward swing is often considered safer, prevents the gate from opening into public spaces like a sidewalk, and may be required by local building codes.

There are exceptions and specific considerations. If your property is on a slope, an inward swing might not be possible. For a deck gate, it's safest to have it swing away from any steps. In a backyard, the direction can be a matter of preference, though an inward swing can be helpful when carrying heavy items like a wheelbarrow into a garden.

Regardless of direction, ensure the gate can open fully without hitting any objects or blocking spaces. While an inward swing is standard, a gate that can swing both in and out offers the most flexibility if your setup allows for it.

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.
