We have had Brian and his crew working in our home on an off for 2+ years.  We are in the process of remodeling our home - section by section - room by room.  We found Brian after being robbed of over 5K by a shyster of a contractor...we were burned, burned, burned.  Brian had the unfortunate task of coming in behind these creeps - ripping out everything they did and starting over.  Not easy - considering we were extremely gun shy.

He has worked his way from the garage through our laundry room into our master bedroom, master bedroom closet, master bath room on into the hall and then into the guest bathroom.  ALL of these rooms have been completely transformed by Brian.  He has painted, laid tile (on floors and walls), patched walls, installed hard wood flooring, installed new windows, installed stone on one side of our fireplace, done a ton of plumbing and wiring, installed doors (regular and pocket), installed light fixtures, plumbing fixtures, and shower systems.  He has put up with our craziness and insecurities and still managed to get the job done...

You have to be willing to work WITH Brian.  For me this is a wonderful thing - he is always full of ideas - that usually are things that I have thought of but never thought possible.

We still have two bedrooms a great room and a kitchen to get through...Brian will be with us for the foreseeable future!!!

Driveway Gates questions, answered by experts

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.

If you only use your gate as a pedestrian, walking through without a vehicle, you’re fine to stick with a single fence gate. If your fence opening needs to accommodate vehicles of any kind, from cars to trucks to 4-wheelers, then a double fence gate will suit the space much better and give you more freedom. 

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.

Hiring a reliable gate company starts by finding an installer with at least five years of experience in your area. This method will ensure they understand local laws and regulations and are familiar with the permitting process. You can also ask the following questions to ensure a smooth installation:

  • Have you worked with my gate material in the past?

  • Do you have customer references I can call?

  • Are you fully insured?

  • Will you pull the necessary permits for the installation?

  • Do you provide any kind of warranty for the gate’s functionality?

For homeowners concerned about security, an electric gate may offer peace of mind. Electric gates will require a code or remote to open, so you don’t have to worry about young children getting out of the yard or someone breaking onto your property by simply swinging open the gate. But because it needs power to operate, installing an electric gate will be more complex and expensive.
