How long does it take to build a driveway gate?

• <div><p>Assuming the site is prepped and you have all the tools and materials ready, you should budget the better part of a day to build a driveway gate. This can depend on your DIY experience and which materials you’ve chosen, such as building from scratch or using a prefabricated option. The gate size and finishing touches, like painting or staining, can also add to the overall time budget.</p></div>

Q: What is the best wood for an outdoor gate?

• <div><p>Redwood and cedar work well for gates because they resist decay and severe weather conditions. Redwood is considered more elegant, though cedar is more affordable. Other options include oak and treated pine. Avoid softwoods like pine and spruce for outdoor projects, as they are susceptible to water, rot, and sun damage. </p></div>

Q: Is having a driveway gate installed worth it?

• <div><p>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.</p></div>

Q: Do driveway gates deter crime?

• <div><p>While there&rsquo;s no hard evidence to support this idea, driveway gates at least provide an additional obstacle that may deter crime. After all, a would-be burglar or trespasser would have to break into the gate and the property itself. The extra work could encourage them to move onto a house without a driveway gate.</p></div>

Q: Which is better, a storm door or a security door?

• <div><p>Each has its use, depending on the scenario. Security doors are primarily intended to keep people out of the home, while storm doors are used to protect the home from extreme weather. Both tend to be made from heavy-duty metal and may include glass panels to allow light to enter the home. Storm doors can feature mesh screens, just like screen doors, to allow for increased ventilation and to keep out pests. Security doors rarely, if ever, have mesh screens.</p></div>

Terrible ending. It was beautiful at first. Then within 6 months my 150 yard, $5000, white stone driveway washed out into the street. The owner, Marcus never returned my calls for assistance.

McFly came by as requested and gave us a very competitive bid. The work was done on time and to our satisfaction. They communicated very well with us and did a walk thru at the end of the job. We highly recommend McFly for pressure washing the house, driveway and sidewalks.

The driveway looks great. They couldn't help work being delayed because of rain. However, I do think the workers could have replaced my drain spout, hose, and bricks I had around flower boxes. They had plenty of time the last afternoon.

Rugged steel gates built with precision and pride — designed for landowners, ranchers, and homes across America. Internal-Welded Pickets — Unlike others who weld pickets to the face of the frame, we weld each one inside the frame for maximum strength, clean lines, and zero exposed joints. Fully Welded Joints — All joints are welded on all four sides, not just tacked or spot-welded. Seamlessly Ground Finishes — Outer welds are meticulously smoothed and finished for a refined, professional look. Powder Coated to Last — Every gate is sandblasted, coated with Sherwin-Williams Powdura, and baked to a full cure for unmatched durability and rust resistance. A gate built in America doesn't just protect land - it protects a legacy.
