"Davey was a pleasure to work with. He returned all communication (email and phone calls) in a very timely manner. He also arrived at my home on time each time we had scheduled a meeting. At our initial meeting I discussed with him what I would like done to the front bed. It was seriously overgrown and needed a lot of work including tearing out some very large shrubbery that had over the years intwined itself in my front porch railing. He agreed to take the job and very quickly sent me a digital design that would work for the bed. I thought the original design, while lovely, didn't really suit my personality. He was happy to redesign it & promptly sent over another design. I liked this one much better and he provided a quote. This was not an inexpensive endeavor, but they had quite a lot of work ahead of them & I am a firm believer in the idea that you 'get what you pay for.' I approved the estimate and he set up a time for his employees to come over and do the work. They arrived on time that day and got straight to work. About half way through the process, I had to leave the site for a few hours and saw that they had utilized my driveway for some yard waste they had pulled out already. I asked if they could let me out of the driveway and they were very happy to move the brush out of the way so I could leave. They were both very professional & considerate & I felt comfortable leaving my home with them there. After I left the site, I got a call from Davey letting me know that I had forgotten to turn the water on for the power washing to take place. We decided to finish the flower bed and we would address the power washing at a later time. When I arrived home after the bed work was complete, I saw not only a beautiful bed, but that all of the yard debris had been cleared away and my yard looked pristine. We had some scheduling issues (mostly due to my work schedule and the weather) getting someone to come back to do the power washing, but Davey was always available by phone or email and continued to be very communicative about when he would be able to send someone by to finish the job. Once the power washing was finished, Davey came back to my home and walked through the garden with me to ensure I was happy with how it looked and to answer any questions I had. He invited me to call or email with any questions I had in the future. I am very happy with how the work turned out & would hire again."

Driveway Gates questions, answered by experts

Fence gates sag because they have no support on the latch side of the gate to help hold them aloft. A gate wheel fixes that problem by providing support for that latch side. Remember that the ground must be level in front of the gate so the wheel can roll freely when you open and close it. If the terrain is uneven or slopes, a gate wheel won’t work.

The cost to install a gate varies widely, with a typical range between $1,500 and $7,000. The average cost is around $3,500. However, the final price can be as low as $200 for a simple gate or as high as $12,000 for a large, automated security gate.

Key factors that determine the installation cost include:

  • Gate Material: This is a primary cost factor. Chain-link and vinyl are the most affordable, while wood and PVC are mid-range options. Wrought iron, aluminum, and other metals are the most expensive materials.

  • Automation: Automated gates are significantly more expensive than manual ones because they require motors, sensors, controls, and electrical installation.

  • Size and Type: The dimensions and style of the gate (e.g., swinging vs. sliding) will impact the price.

  • Security Level: Gates with advanced security features will increase the overall cost.

Installation typically takes 1-3 days, depending on the gate type and site conditions.

Is your wrought iron gate really rusty or in need of major repair work? Replacing it with a gate with built-in privacy screening may be easier and, in some cases, more economical. Professional fence or gate repair costs average $100 to $400, and you may be able to get a new gate for the same price.

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.
