Gate for Driveway or Security Installation and Replacement
Quote and installation process went well. Two months later gate alignment problems started. Unable to open gate when gate was wedged against gate structure pole. Happened again several times. Each time company would come out and adjust. Last time in 2025, Richard said that probably needed to change hinge. He adjusted the gate opener so that when closed the gate did not rest flush against the gate stop on the stationary pole. Waited for him to schedule time plus provide estimate for a fence replacement on other side of house. Received no reply. Misalignment continued to get more pronounced. Called again in April 2026. Came out and adjusted hinge and opener again. Three to four alignments have to mean that hinges are not strong enough for weight of gate. Said that he would schedule his team to come out and resolve issue. Heard nothing from him after that last visit. Sent text message about no action. Notified him in message that I would not serve as reference and will file complaint with Angie. He asked me to give him opportunity to correct. Replied that I would be willing to work with him provided he did a full inspection of gate and provide detail project activity and timeline. Inspection was requested because there are rust spots on portions of the gate and wanted all issues to be addressed in remediation. Received no reply.
Response from A-1 Access & Fence
"We installed this gate over a year ago and it did need one adjustment which we took care of. We received a call about 3 to 4 months afterwards saying that she was worried the same problem might happen. We came out and checked the gate and noticed that the gate was not the issue. The issue is that the ground on the left side of the property is shifting, making one post lean in towards the driveway. This lien has caused the gap between the gate in the post to be smaller. As of that point, it was not in danger of hitting. We mentioned that if it did hit again, we would come back and reset the post. We never received a call that the gate hit. We did receive a call a few weeks ago, saying that she was going to submit a complaint. We felt that was not right because the gate was still working correctly. It’s the post needs to be reset. We are more willing to do that, at a discounted labor rate. But the problem is not with the installation or the product, the problem is with the ground naturally shifting."

Tech did not notify me when he arrived or left although I was home. Gate works again but was not repaired as outlined in their quote.

Our 20 year old electric driveway gate opener died. I called this company for repair and ended up replacing the unit. The installer came out the next morning with all the parts and went right to work. We are pleased that we will still be able to use our current remotes with this opener. We are also very pleased with the attitude, courtesy, prompt service, and price of the company. Will keep their number handy for any other needs in the future.
