Residential Gate Installation FAQs
Yes. We add new gates to most existing wood, vinyl, aluminum, steel, and chain link fences, matching the material, height, and style so the gate looks like part of the original fence. If the posts at the opening are worn or undersized, we replace them so the gate hangs straight and swings freely. See our residential fence installation services for full fence projects.
Swing gates work best on flat driveways with enough clear space for the gate to open fully. Sliding gates are the better fit for sloped driveways, short setbacks, or tight spaces where a swinging gate would hit a car or landscaping. Our guide to driveway gate options for Georgia homes compares both in detail.
Yes. We install automated swing and slide driveway gates with gate operators and access options such as remotes and keypads, so you can open your gate without leaving the car. We'll recommend the right operator based on your gate's size, weight, and driveway layout.
Pool gates generally need to be self-closing and self-latching, open outward away from the pool, and have the latch mounted high enough that young children can't reach it. Requirements can vary by city and county, so we confirm local rules before installation. Learn more in our guide to pool fencing requirements in Georgia.
Gate pricing depends on the gate's width, material, hardware, and whether it's manual or automated. A simple walk gate costs far less than an automated driveway system. We provide free written estimates, match competitors' written quotes, and offer financing for qualifying customers.
Yes. We repair sagging hinges, sticking latches, misaligned frames, worn hardware, and damaged posts on gates of all materials. In many cases a sagging gate can be fixed with new hinges, a post adjustment, or an anti-sag kit rather than a full replacement. Visit our fence repair page for more.
What Types Of Residential Gates Are Available?

Driveway Gates In Atlanta: Swing, Slide, Or Automated
Your driveway gate is the first thing guests see and the main way vehicles enter your property, so the right design matters. Swing gates are the classic choice for flat driveways with enough room for the gate to open fully. Slide gates move along the fence line instead, which makes them the better fit for sloped driveways, short setbacks, and tight spaces where a swinging gate would hit a car or landscaping.
Either style can be automated with a gate operator and access options such as remotes and keypads, so you can open the gate without leaving your car. We'll measure your opening, check the grade, and recommend the style that fits your property and budget. For a side-by-side comparison, read our guide to driveway gate options for Georgia homes.
Gates For Every Fence Material
The best gate matches the fence it's part of, in material, height, and style. We build and install gates in every material we offer:
- Wood Gates: A natural match for wood privacy, picket, and shadowbox fences, built with sturdy framing and quality hinges so the gate stays square and swings freely.
- Aluminum Gates: Rust-free and nearly maintenance-free, aluminum gates are a top choice for pool enclosures, front yards, and HOA communities with strict appearance standards.
- Steel Gates: For maximum strength and security, steel gates are ideal for driveways and estate entrances. Not sure which metal fits your property? See our steel vs. aluminum comparison.
- Vinyl Gates: Vinyl gates won't rot, warp, or need painting, keeping a clean look for years with minimal upkeep.
- Chain Link Gates: Affordable and practical, chain link gates work well for side yards, dog runs, and wide openings for equipment or trailers.

Residential Gate Repair
A gate gets more daily use than any other part of your fence, so it's usually the first thing to show wear. We repair sagging and dragging gates, broken or sticking latches, worn hinges, misaligned frames, and leaning gate posts on wood, vinyl, aluminum, steel, and chain link gates. Many problems can be fixed without replacing the whole gate, and if replacement makes more sense, we'll tell you honestly. Most repairs can be scheduled within the same week.
