They replaced a gate motor on my swinging driveway gate that had been stolen. In addition to replacing the motor they also adjusted the gate so it closed properly which it had never done before. They also installed locks on the motors to prevent them from being stolen in the future. They did...
Word FenceWorksBest gates I have _ever_ seen. Replaced the posts, gates are steel frames on steel hinges with a wood veneer. Very careful with the cleaning and staining as we have shared fences in our neighborhood. Covered everything on both sides where needed.
The gate looks great and the work was done professionally.
Artisans Home Repair did an excellent job. They repaired a fence gate (human,, non-motorized) so that it now opens and shuts correctly. Had to replace/reseat the latch; repair some boards on the gate; and cut/trim the bottom of the gate.
Artisans Home Repair LLCA1 Garage Door didn't see my Angie's List response to their suggested appointment time, so my assumption that they were coming as originally scheduled was wrong. I followed up with a phone call, and was told they never saw my reply email (through Angie's List) but rescheduled to come out the...

"Overall, the project looks good. Where they missed the mark was in relationship to the cleanup. I asked them to come out and pick the remaining concrete and dirt left over from the project. Responded that it wouldn't be until the following week. If I would have waited that long, my grass where the concrete and dirt was left behind would have killed it. In addition, the crew left dirt piled up against my A/C unit where it had leaked into it. Overall, it took me only an hour and three large buckets of dirt and concrete to clean up, but it seems that this should have been part of their efforts. Spoke with Alex and was disappointed in his lack of response / urgency in getting the issue resolved."

When choosing a driveway gate, consider the fence material, whether you want an automatic gate or a manual one, and property limitations like the slope of your driveway. We recommend speaking with a professional driveway gate installer to see what types of gates will work on your property based on your fencing or home’s exterior. Keep in mind that driveway gates should range between 10 to 12 feet wide to ensure cars can easily maneuver through the gateway.
It might be possible to install your own manual driveway gate rather than an automatic one, but we don’t recommend it. Driveway gates are large, heavy, and bulky, and getting them to your house and maneuvering them for installation can be dangerous. It’s also challenging to install the gate and balance it perfectly so that it functions as expected, and wiring any automation mechanisms for your gate is also dangerous and requires help from an electrician. We recommend leaving the work to a professional driveway gate installer.
Driveway gates are expensive to install, but they are usually a worthwhile investment. Not only does this exterior feature improve your curb appeal and, by extension, your property value, but they also help keep your home secure. Driveway can keep out unwanted guests and provide additional privacy for you and your household. Plus, they can serve as a means of keeping children and pets in your yard, depending on the type of fence.
In most municipalities, you will need a permit to install a driveway gate unless you plan on removing an existing gate and installing a new one. You can either ask your driveway gate installer or your local building department to determine if a permit is required in your area and for your specific project. If you live on a corner property, additional restrictions may be attached to your permit that prevent you from installing a gate over a certain height or a privacy fence. Make sure you check with your installer about permitting before choosing a gate.
The average cost to install a driveway gate is around $3,500, and prices usually total between $1,900 and $6,000. However, security and driveway gates can cost as much as $12,000. Some cost factors include the size of the gate, the type of gate, the gate material, and the security level of the gate. A wrought iron gate will be more expensive than a PVC driveway gate, which will typically cost more than a wood gate. Automated gates are always more expensive than manual ones, as they require additional electrical installation.
From average costs to expert advice, get all the answers you need to get your job done.
