What size gate spring should I use?

• <div><p>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.</p></div>

When is replacing a wrought iron gate a better option than covering it for privacy purposes?

• <div><p>Is your wrought iron gate really rusty or in need of major repair work? Replacing it with a gate with built-in privacy screening may be easier and, in some cases, more economical. Professional <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-it-cost-repair-fence.htm">fence or gate repair costs</a> average $100 to $400, and you may be able to get a new gate for the same price.</p></div>

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: 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>

Q: What materials are used for driveway gates?

• <div><p>Wood, wrought iron, aluminum, and steel are common materials. Choose based on durability, aesthetics, and maintenance needs.</p></div>
