"Fred and his team were great! We needed an old deck remove and hauled away, new irrigation and sod placed, mulch in our garden beds and a concrete pad laid. They gave us a fair quote and stuck to the budget, even when concrete shortages were impacting the market this summer. There were a few delays due to unforeseen circumstances, but they communicated well with us about what was going on, and when they could do they work, they worked hard to get the job done quickly and well. We will use Good Samaritain again for future projects!"

"We had this company extend our fence around the driveway and add a gate, and the whole project turned out great. The team was easy to work with and understood exactly what we were looking for. The extension blends perfectly with the existing fence, and the new gate is solid and works smoothly. It really adds a lot of security and looks great, too. The whole process was straightforward, and they finished on time. We're really happy with the results and would definitely recommend them!"

"Catch him when you can - Keith was great  and being great makes him hard to schedule - but he fit us in for an afternoon and repaired a variety of issues for us as outlined above.  He was prompt, efficient, thorough and instructive.  I would use him for most anything I can think of around our home.  I am amazed at how many issues he resolved in a short time - he is multi skilled.

"Joe came out and discussed what neared to be done to fit me with a new driveway He also had a brochure to show me the kind of gate I would be getting. I had already had three other bids, but I decided to go with Joe and Best Fence. I paid the downpayment and work started the next day! I now have a beautiful gate—I'm getting compliments on it from all the neighbors! I would recommend Joe for any fencing needs and I will more than likely use him again."

Gate Repair questions, answered by experts

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.

The cost to install a gate varies widely, with a typical range between $1,500 and $7,000. The average cost is around $3,500. However, the final price can be as low as $200 for a simple gate or as high as $12,000 for a large, automated security gate.

Key factors that determine the installation cost include:

  • Gate Material: This is a primary cost factor. Chain-link and vinyl are the most affordable, while wood and PVC are mid-range options. Wrought iron, aluminum, and other metals are the most expensive materials.

  • Automation: Automated gates are significantly more expensive than manual ones because they require motors, sensors, controls, and electrical installation.

  • Size and Type: The dimensions and style of the gate (e.g., swinging vs. sliding) will impact the price.

  • Security Level: Gates with advanced security features will increase the overall cost.

Yes, most electric and automatic gates can be opened manually. They are equipped with a manual override or release mechanism that detaches the motor from the gate, allowing it to be moved by hand. This feature is essential during power outages or other emergencies.

To activate the manual override, you will typically need a specific key or tool. In some cases, you may also need a screwdriver to remove a cover to access the release mechanism. The use of a key is a common security measure to prevent unauthorized individuals from manually opening the gate.

Because every model is different, it is highly recommended to consult your gate's user manual to familiarize yourself with the specific procedure before you need to use it. Keep any necessary keys or tools in an accessible location. Be aware that automatic gates can be very heavy, so opening and closing them manually may be difficult.

In North America, electric gates are also subject to the UL 325 Standard for Safety, which includes provisions to allow emergency responders to access the property.

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.

Electric gates can be forced open if someone applies enough force to the edge furthest from the mounting bracket. You can reduce this risk by adding an electric lock to your gate opener. However, automatic gate openers generally help deter intruders, especially when paired with outdoor lighting and security cameras. Other home security tips include trimming trees surrounding the area for added visibility and installing motion sensors in your yard.
