The Fence Guy is a small, family owned business that has been in operation since 2008, and has been in the fence installation trade since 1986. ***We do NOT have sales people, YOUR ESTIMATE IS DONE BY AN INSTALLATION EXPERT. Every Time.*** The concept behind this is that you get what you want, the first time, every time. As it should be. **We NEVER TAKE A DEPOSIT ON JOBS** The simple concept behind this is we do not want your money until: (a)We have earned it, and (b) We have made the client happy with their purchase. We offer ALL styles of fence including privacy, picket, shadowbox, scalloped, convexed, split-rail, horse-fence, farm-fence, chain-link, ornamental aluminum and steel, guard-rail, barrier fence and just about any other type of containment available. We also offer REPAIR WORK on ALL styles of fences and gates. We work with Cedar and Pressure-Treated lumber and we buy from local suppliers, hand-picking your material for YOU. We offer MILITARY and SERVICE PROVIDER(Fire/Medic and Law Enforcement) discounts We offer SENIOR discounts **WE ARE CURRENTLY RUNNING APPROXIMATELY 2-3 WEEKS OUT ON RESIDENTIAL INSTALLATIONS, weather permitting.** **NOTE----- There have been reviews that have stated that we use sub-standard materials that warp. ANY lumber is susceptible to warpage, at any time. At the time of the sale, the customer is given several choices and price points accordingly. If you buy the least expensive product, you cannot expect it to perform like a top of the line product. We can and do warranty all of our workmanship/craftsmanship, but we have very little quality control over lumber beyond what we see when we purchase it. That being said, we will stand behind what we install within reason, based on the choices the customer makes at the time of the sale. Obviously, we want our customers to be happy with their purchase and their choice in us as their contractor! Keith---740-438-9135

"I highly recommend Zimmer Gates and Doors. The gate was installed 5 weeks ahead of schedule and exceeded my high expectations. Darryn listened to our needs, made suggestions for a style of gate that would compliment our aesthetics and recommended options to best meet our reasons for wanting/needing a gate. Cost effective, very high quality of product and first-class installation and service. Darryn not only hand washed and dried the gate upon completion, but spent a great deal of time walking me through the operational and technical components and answered my every question. Was self sufficient and required nothing from the client. Meticulous and tidy and the grounds looked better than before he arrived. Darryn even gave me his mobile number should I have questions in the future. I have met very few contractors that exhibit this level of passion for their work and I am thrilled with the overall result."

They each know their job and they get on with it. Doug has the lowest price of the three companies I checked with. Since they were all A+ rated, I went with him. Very happy thus far"

"The crew arrived as scheduled. The crew leader seemed unsure to me about the job specifics so I had the office double check with him and then we were all on the same page. They removed the old fence and posts, dug new ones and put up the new fence in about 5 hours. I wasn't home when the crew finished and I was unhappy when I got home with the height of the fence fabric on the gates, the muddy mess they left on the sidewalk and the the way one corner was done. I contacted the office and within an hour, the crew was back and adjusted everything that I had a problem with. Love being able to text a company and get an answer. Great responsiveness to correct little problems."

Gate Repair questions, answered by experts

If you don’t have a lot of clearance, a sliding gate can save space. But keep in mind that sliding gates may require more maintenance to keep in operating condition, and swinging gates are often less expensive.

To stop trash from blowing under your gate, you can install anti-litter netting. This solution prevents most large debris from being blown inside of a controlled area and is often used in construction sites. Many types of netting are not designed for permanent use, so you may need to search for a style that matches your gate color.

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.

Each has its use, depending on the scenario. Security doors are primarily intended to keep people out of the home, while storm doors are used to protect the home from extreme weather. Both tend to be made from heavy-duty metal and may include glass panels to allow light to enter the home. Storm doors can feature mesh screens, just like screen doors, to allow for increased ventilation and to keep out pests. Security doors rarely, if ever, have mesh screens.

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.
