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>

What is the difference between a barrier door and a security door?

• <div><p>Barrier doors or <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/3-things-know-about-screen-doors.htm">screen doors</a> are ideal for bringing in summer breezes without letting in pesky flies and mosquitoes. But these types of doors aren’t as secure as a security door, which is installed with permanent screws into the home’s walls and often have deadbolts or other heavy-duty lock mechanisms for better security.</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: Can I attach a wood extension to a vinyl gate?

• <div><p>Whether you can attach a wood extension to a vinyl gate depends on the gate's construction. Some vinyl gates are sturdy enough to allow wood or vinyl boards to be attached. Many, however, have hollow frames that may not hold screws or heavy extensions securely. For these, consider alternative extension options such as a rubber flap or chicken wire.</p></div>

Q: Will a gate wheel help with sagging?

• <div><p>Fence gates sag because they have no support on the latch side of the gate to help hold them aloft. A gate wheel fixes that problem by providing support for that latch side. Remember that the ground must be level in front of the gate so the wheel can roll freely when you open and close it. If the terrain is uneven or slopes, a gate wheel won&rsquo;t work.</p></div>

Luis provided estimates and pics. He did a good job with the fence gate. He later returned and changed the gate handle and a board per my dad's preference without taking offense or problems. Luis is polite and we looking forward to him doing more home projects. Thank you!

I believe they do good driveways. We got a prompt estimate from Steve. $25K. He said just call if you have any questions. I did, but it seems he couldn't do me the courtesy of returning my calls. Not good business. He lost my business.
