Q: How much should a wooden gate cost?

• <div><p>A DIY manual wooden gate costs $200 to $600 for a basic single-swing gate. If you want to hire a pro, a manual wood gate can cost $400 to $4,000. For automated wood gates, expect to pay $850 to $8,500.</p><p>Factors that affect price include the quality of materials, cost of labor, the height of the gate, and the type of gate you need.</p></div>

Q: How do I stop rubbish from blowing under my gate?

• <div><p>To stop trash from blowing under your gate, you can install anti-litter netting. This solution prevents most large debris from being blown inside of a controlled area and is often used in construction sites. Many types of netting are not designed for permanent use, so you may need to search for a style that matches your gate color.</p></div>

Q: Is it worth it to install a gate on my property?

• <div><p>Installing a gate on an existing fence or alongside a new fence is usually worthwhile, even though it can be expensive. Side gates give you easier access to your rear yard, making the space more usable. More importantly, they can help keep your children and pets safe in your yard without compromising accessibility. Security gates are particularly worthwhile, as they have the added bonus of protecting your home. In case that&rsquo;s not enough upside, installing a fence with gates usually boosts your curb appeal and property value.</p></div>

Q: How much does a security door cost?

• <div><p>A security door costs an average of $1,400, but costs can range from $600 for a simple screen or <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/5-things-know-about-steel-door.htm">steel door</a> to more than $4,600 for a wrought-iron security door. You can also buy specialized locks separately for $200 to $600. If you decide to hire a pro to install your new security door, you&rsquo;ll spend around $275 to $425 on labor costs.</p></div>

Woke up this morning to no heat. Called Joey at 6:30 and he said he and crew would be right over. When he got here, he found my ignitor had frozen. They fixed it by 11:00 and I was finally warm. You can't get better service than that.
