We couldn't be more pleased ?"

"Better than I could've hoped for. Bob and Brandon were awesome! They showed up for the consultation early, but not obnoxiously early. First thing I appreciated. They were honest about what needed to be done. This was a Saturday, said they would have estimates for me on Monday. They called me Sunday, directly, which I appreciated. Not only did they give me different options, they were up front with what each one had, and didn't have to offer. They also informed me they wouldn't be able to start until Wednesday due to another job they were working on. Though it sucked, I understood, and appreciated their honesty. Got another call a short while later informing me they could actually start the next day on Monday due to an unexpected wait on some tile for another customer. I was floored! I was so happy to be a priority for them, really made me feel special. My wife and I needed this done so we could sell our house and were not looking forward to waiting. Needless to say, we felt blessed. The job took two days, it wasn't big, just beyond my own skill set. Not only did they put new siding in, but they went above and beyond and made new frames for all the windows, put in a new flood light, and caulked one more window for us. The place looks amazing! These two take pride in their craft, and that's what I'll call it because it was more than just work to them. Not only was it good, but done a lot sooner than we were expecting. I was so happy that I gave them both a $50 gift card to Texas Roadhouse. Should I need to the services of a good handyman again, I'm calling these guys first."

Driveway Gates questions, answered by experts

Installing a gate on your property is often a worthwhile investment, despite the initial expense. Gates enhance your home's curb appeal and can increase its property value, making them more attractive to potential homebuyers. They provide significant security benefits by keeping out unwanted guests and increasing privacy for your household. Additionally, a gate can help keep children and pets safely contained in your yard.

For driveway gates, automatic versions are particularly convenient and tend to add more value than manual ones. The choice of gate material also plays a role in both aesthetic appeal and security. Beyond driveways, side gates can improve accessibility to your rear yard, making the outdoor space more usable. Overall, whether for security, safety, or aesthetics, installing a gate is a valuable addition to a property.

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.

The best direction for a gate to swing depends on its location and purpose, but swinging inward is the general rule. An inward swing is often considered safer, prevents the gate from opening into public spaces like a sidewalk, and may be required by local building codes.

There are exceptions and specific considerations. If your property is on a slope, an inward swing might not be possible. For a deck gate, it's safest to have it swing away from any steps. In a backyard, the direction can be a matter of preference, though an inward swing can be helpful when carrying heavy items like a wheelbarrow into a garden.

Regardless of direction, ensure the gate can open fully without hitting any objects or blocking spaces. While an inward swing is standard, a gate that can swing both in and out offers the most flexibility if your setup allows for it.

While many gate hinges are often made of extremely durable materials, such as galvanized steel, they can wear out after many years. How quickly they wear out also depends on how much use they’ve endured. It’s also possible for the hinge screws to fall out, which weakens the hinge. Once a hinge wears out, it’s time for a replacement so your gate doesn’t start sagging.

For homeowners concerned about security, an electric gate may offer peace of mind. Electric gates will require a code or remote to open, so you don’t have to worry about young children getting out of the yard or someone breaking onto your property by simply swinging open the gate. But because it needs power to operate, installing an electric gate will be more complex and expensive.
