"Overall the install was okay at best. The quality of materials was very poor even though we paid for cedar . They are way overpriced and don't stand by there products/work. I’ve attached photos of the posts visible on the outside of the concrete…. It’s safe to say we will not use them in the future, nor would we recommend their services. We went with SK because most of the fences in town were installed by your company and expected more based on their reputation but I think because we were are not in the richest area we didn't get the same kind of care/quality of work. When in reality what we got was a shoddy fence job with warped boards, bent fence posts, and a gate that was improperly installed - all by a crew that spent more time utilizing their smoke breaks & breaks than they did working on our fence. I’m generally not one to complain, even when I want to, but it is ridiculous that they would claim that our gate falling over was caused by storm damage when there was visible wood rot visible at the bottom of the broken posts and none of the rest of the fence has fallen over that is out in the open more. We do realize that it has been 4 years since installation, but there is no way that it should have rotted that fast and if it had been installed properly, it wouldn’t have at all. It is obvious that SK does not stand by their products/work. Ultimately, we decided to do the work ourselves, because $800 is just crazy for replacing two posts that was their fault they rotted when the materials cost us less than $100. The posts were obviously rotted, and while digging them up we learned the reason the posts failed was because they were partially installed outside of the concrete. This is deeply concerning and it makes me wonder how many of our other posts were installed incorrectly…. Hopefully you don't have this issue but we would strongly recommend someone else. We wouldn't even been writing this if they would have just stood by the work they did and fixed the mistake they made. Heck if the whole fence blew down and it was real wind damage I wouldn't even blame them for say sorry that is wind damage there is nothing we can do about it."

Free computer drafting with general knowlege of design. I have 30 years experience in building houses. I am familiar with local subcontractors. I can get any job done at a reasonable cost.

"The work was done properly and when some additional jobs were added, Mr Grant went out of his way to get subcontractor's in to fix the added jobs promptly. I was very happy with the results and would recommend Steven Grant Construction to anyone who needed a prompt quote and a properly done job. He took the extra steps to finish my job within the quote so I stayed on budget."

FAQs for gate for driveway or security installation and replacement projects in Gifford, IL

Installation timeframes vary based on gate complexity and site conditions. Basic manual gates require one to two days when site preparation is already complete. Automated systems often need additional electrical work and testing time, potentially extending the project to three or more days. Weather conditions, special permits, or custom features may further lengthen the timeline.

Regular maintenance helps extend your gate's lifespan and ensure proper operation. Wood gates need periodic sealing or staining to prevent weather damage. Metal gates benefit from rust prevention treatments. For automated systems, inspect motors, hinges, and electronic components regularly. Lubricate moving parts according to manufacturer recommendations and promptly address unusual noises or operational changes.

Most standard homeowner's insurance policies include coverage for permanently installed structures like security gates under the property's dwelling or other structures protection. However, high-value automated systems might warrant discussion with your insurance provider. Some policies may offer liability coverage if your gate injures someone, but specific terms vary by insurer and policy.

Security gates can be adapted for sloped driveways, though installation requires specialized planning. Swing gates need level ground, but professionals can implement custom solutions using adjustable hinges or modified designs. Sliding gates offer another alternative for inclined surfaces. Professional assessment is recommended to determine the most appropriate configuration for your specific gradient.

Well-designed security gates incorporate emergency access provisions. Many localities require gates to have override mechanisms allowing first responder entry during emergencies. Options include Knox boxes (secure containers holding access keys), manual release mechanisms, or specialized access codes. Consult with local fire and emergency services about requirements before finalizing your gate design.
