"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."

"I had siding ripped from my house during a windstorm and a gable attic vent destroyed by raccoons. Bryan took the time to walk me through options and provided me with a very reasonable estimate to get the work done. Bryan was on-time for all appointments, courteous and thorough in his work...I was very pleased with the results. I would highly recommend Bryan for any handyman work."

"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."

Angies List Super Service Award, Over 20 years Experience. Licensed By Ohio Department of Agriculture, Authorized contractor for Unilock Hardscape products, members of The International Society of Arboriculture. Born and raised here in central Ohio.

"I can not say enough about the work and professionalism of this company. They were in communication with me about when they would be here and when the weather didn't permit them to work, when they'd be back. They cleaned up any areas they needed to use to get to the yard area they were working on, plus reseeded any area they crossed with their equipment if it was even the slightest bit damaged. We worked for over 5 years to find someone to do our job. I'm so glad we did, because I feel we chose the best!!!! Thank you so very much, Dr. Wood Arborist and Landscape Specialists! We couldn't be anymore thrilled!!!"

"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!!"

Driveway Gates questions, answered by experts

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 gate should be 3/4 to an inch smaller than the opening. The opening size that you need for your gate can vary depending on your hinge type. You may also need to add reinforcing braces if the gap between your gate and the fence is not uniform from top to bottom.

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.

It does matter which way a hinge is installed because it’s possible to install a hinge backward. The hinge pin should face the direction in which the door will swing, making the pin visible. Exterior doors that swing outward need a security hinge with an Allen set screw in the center to prevent someone from removing the hinge from the outside and accessing the home or business.

Double gates come with the same gaps as single gates, with hinges taking up a quarter of an inch of space. The difference is that double fence gates also have a center gap, which needs a little more clearance. Space the center gap at half an inch instead of the usual three-eighths of an inch for a single gate.
