How do I hire a reliable gate installation company?

This method will ensure they understand local laws and regulations and are familiar with the permitting process.

Q: Can electric gates be opened manually?

• <div><p>Electric gates have a manual override switch that detaches the motor from the opening mechanism. For most gates, this requires a key as a deterrent to thieves or trespassers forcing open your gate. Be aware that many automatic or electric gates are very heavy, so it may be difficult to close the gate if you are fine with manually opening it. </p></div>

Q: How long does gate installation take?

• <div><p>Installation typically takes 1-3 days, depending on the gate type and site conditions.</p></div>

Q: What's the best under-gate dog barrier?

• <div><p>The best under-gate <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/whats-best-fence-option-keep-your-dog-safe.htm">dog barrier</a> is one that extends to the ground. This effectively keeps dogs in and won't give them room to squeeze through. However, dogs that dig can still get under the barrier. Deter digging by paving the ground beneath the gate or filling it in with rocks or gravel. Be careful using wire to extend dog gates, as the sharp ends may cut or hurt your dog's paws.</p></div>

Q: Should a wooden gate swing in or out?

• <div><p>Ideally, your gate would swing both in and out. However, if it can only open in one direction, it's generally best for the gate to swing inward. There are exceptions, however. For example, if your property is on a slope, your gate may not be able to swing in.</p><p>Keep in mind that there may be local building codes that require your gate to swing inward.</p></div>

Derek’s crew installed a low voltage electric gate across our driveway with code pads. They did a great job, clean and tidy, and just what we wanted. We are very pleased.

We have a side yard on a slope, and we needed a large deck and also a fence to keep our dog in, with two gates. They did a great job, were very communicative, were responsive when I made a small alteration to the plan and the deck they built is solid and strong with a pretty railing. We were...

B&B did a great job on our 6-unit condo. It was pretty dirty (and green) from the winter. The gutters hadn't been done in a while and were loaded with nasty stuff. B&B was very responsive to my original inquiry, gave me a great quote and we agreed on a date. That day, our driveway was blocked by...

At 4:20am on Sunday morning a strong windstorm blew down a huge hemlock tree onto two cars and completely blocking our driveway. Called Brad, sent him photos in an email and he got back quickly with a very reasonable bid for removal. We agreed. We thought it might take a couple of days but Brad...
