"Steve showed up first to give us a quote. We did ask for additional quotes from other businesses and decided to go with him, as his quote listed every detail about the work. The price of the project was very competitive with other estimates. Since we weren't sure what we really needed, Steve provided excellent guidance. He and his crew went the extra mile to make sure we were happy and satisfied with the final product. I would recommend Fancing Solutions to anyone because I am confident they will do a good job."

Gate for driveway or security installations and replacements FAQs

Homeowners experience a few benefits with automatic driveway gates:

  • Insurance: Homes with security driveway gates typically get a lower insurance premium. The added security and decrease in risk of theft and vandalism are the main reasons for the lower monthly premium.

  • Property value: A safety or security gate can increase the value of your property by up to 5%. This hike in value comes from the device’s ability to boost curb appeal and increase security.

  • Security: Automatic driveway gates can also increase your property's security by keeping unwanted people and animals off of it.

Your driveway gate can open either inward or outward, depending on your property's layout and space constraints. Opening the gate inward toward your property is generally safer and preferred, as it prevents the gate from obstructing pedestrians or vehicles on the sidewalk or road. Some local regulations may require gates to open inward for public safety reasons. Consulting with your installer and checking local codes can help determine the best option for your gate.

In many areas, you may need a permit to install an automatic driveway gate, especially if it involves electrical work or changes that affect public access. Permit requirements vary by location, so it's essential to check with your local building department before starting the project. A professional installer can help you navigate the permitting process to ensure your gate complies with all local codes and regulations.

No, automatic gates are typically energy-efficient and shouldn't cause a significant increase in your electricity bill. Most gate motors are designed for low power consumption since they operate only when opening or closing the gate. Additionally, there are solar-powered gate systems available that harness energy from the sun, further reducing electricity costs.

Yes, all electric gates come equipped with a manual release mechanism that allows you to open and close the gate during a power outage or emergency. These safety features are mandated by industry standards to ensure accessibility for emergency responders. It's important to familiarize yourself with the manual override process and keep any necessary keys or tools readily available.
