"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."

"Terrible. Tree needs to be replaced, since they didn't dig the tree into the ground. Instead, they threw soil over it and hoped it would grow. The root ball was showing and continues to show (thus tree needs to be replaced) Retaining wall they build also collapsed and fell over. Terrible company, terrible service, and waste of money. Please avoid them whatever you do...… You'll be glad you did!!"

Plenty of companies build fences. Very few do it right. At Mae Fence, we build fences with techniques handed down for generations. We use only the best components – and the best craftsmen – to build fencing that we’re proud to put our name on. When you choose us, you’re choosing integrity. We are a family-owned company specializing in cedar, vinyl, aluminum, and chain link fence. We’re happy to take on commercial and residential fencing projects of all sizes. We give every customer our respect, our attention, and our very best effort.

"Had an estimate done, assumed we would hear from the salesperson again before everything was finalized, as we had not settled on exact style and layout of fence. Installation day arrived and installers verified post location, but nothing else. Told them to call if they had questions, but didn't hear anything from MAE until they charged my card that same day before verifying the fence was satisfactory. Struggled for over a month now to have them correct their mistakes. We are having a lot of other work done to the house, and multiple other contractors/tradesman have all commented on the poor quality of the fence, unsolicited from us. Would not recommend."

Driveway Gates questions, answered by experts

This largely depends on the layout of your property and your preferred walking route to various entryways. Take your time figuring out the perfect spot for the gate to avoid difficulties later on. With all this said, the best place to put a gate is an area free from obstructions that offer the shortest route to your house.

Thieves can open almost anything with enough time and the right tools, but they also prefer easy targets that are unlikely to get them caught. Forcing open gates is loud and difficult, and to be able to open one electronically requires extensive knowledge of the system, which most thieves don't have. Electric and other security gates are great deterrents because the thief will move to an easier target. If the thief is determined to enter your property, they will most likely find a different entrance point.

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.

Depending on your needs and wants, investing in a security door can be well worth the cost. Now that you know the pros and cons, you can decide if it’s a purchase that makes sense for your family. If you’re ready to have one installed in your home, look into security door installers in your area.

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.
