"The work was excellent. The crew cleaned up everything daily. I am so tickled with my new fence. It changes the appearance of the yard. I was kept informed of any changes. I cannot express how happy I am with the services provided. I highly recommend Aspen Fencing for your next project."

My names Cayden Shadoan, I’m 23 years old. I have a beautiful wife and daughter. I have a full time job as a pipe welder in Sumter South Carolina. I’m on here just looking to pick up a couple extra jobs here and there in hopes of starting my own business one day to be able to stay home with my family more. I can do pretty much anything that needs done in or around your house. Specializing in building fences or repairing fences, any kind of piping jobs, or any welding. Thank you for considering me to help you get what you need done. Hope to see you soon.

"Larry Simmons at Global Fence Co. did an excellent job on a project I thought was unsalvageable. In praise of Larry – he is very professional and respectful; he said what time he would show up and he showed up at that exact time; and after multiple dialogues to get on the same page, decide what is best, and to explain exactly what he was going to do, he worked diligently and completed the job in the timeframe he proposed. My double wooden swinging gate went from looking hopelessly terrible to looking very sharp, very attractive, and professionally done. Larry Simmons at Global Fence Co. gets my highest recommendation."

"They did a very good job. He did what I asked him to do and they were able to clean up 2 separate buildings completely. They communicated well and got it done in a day. I like his personality. It's hard to find people like him nowadays. I would love to use his service again."

Driveway Gates questions, answered by experts

Costs depend on system type, labor rates, and additional features like smart integration or professional monitoring.

Ideally, a gate should be able to swing both in and out. However, if it can only open in one direction, it is generally best for it to swing inward. This is often the safest option, especially for deck gates near steps, as you'll want the gate to swing away from the stairs. An inward swing also prevents the gate from opening into a public space, like a sidewalk, and can be more convenient when carrying heavy items like a wheelbarrow into a garden.

There are exceptions, however. The layout of your property may require a different approach. For example, if your property is on a slope, the gate may not be able to swing inward. You should also ensure the gate can open fully without colliding with any objects or blocking access to other areas. For a backyard garden gate where public access isn't a concern, the direction it swings is largely a matter of personal preference. Finally, always check your local building codes, as they may have specific requirements for which way a gate must swing.

The obvious disadvantage of an automatic gate is that it runs on electricity. If the power goes out, it won’t open or close unless there’s a manual override. Many homeowners will need a backup generator so they don’t get stuck on either side of the gate, particularly when looking to park a vehicle. Automatic gates are also much more complicated than manual gates, with tech-heavy components that make them more expensive to repair.

While entryways are seldom added to a house to increase the sale price, they are commonly constructed to increase the livability and enjoyment of a home. So, while they aren’t necessary, they do make for a more comfortable and luxurious-feeling home. Entryways are most valuable in areas of extreme heat, cold, or rain, as the space between the living area and the outdoors helps keep the outdoors outside. Plus, snow, wet boots, and mud are all corralled into one space that’s easy to clean.

The best under-gate dog barrier 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.
