"FABULOUS. We don't think there are words that can adequately express the outstanding workmanship. Greg came to our home to correct a completely botched wall refinishing project left behind by another contractor. He took time to listen to our vision and executed a flawless finish. Greg is professional, reliable, and an overall genuinely nice guy. He settles for nothing but perfection, and was truly our port in the storm. You need to look no further than McIntyre's Renovations!!!!"

"He seemed like an accurate and knowledgeable professional but the end result is awful. The railings are rusting and the metal is not straight in several places. I gave him several opportunities to fix it but I just keep getting excuses. I don't even want him on my property. I will have to rip it out and start over once I save enough again."

Driveway Gates 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.

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.

Assuming the site is prepped and you have all the tools and materials ready, you should budget the better part of a day to build a driveway gate. This can depend on your DIY experience and which materials you’ve chosen, such as building from scratch or using a prefabricated option. The gate size and finishing touches, like painting or staining, can also add to the overall time budget.

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.

You can install a privacy cover on your wrought iron gate anytime. However, pick a dry day if you apply stain or paint to the paneling. If you’re hiring a local fencing contractor, they often offer better rates in their low season outside the busy spring and summer months.
