One of my friends recommended me your Procompare site. I needed a swing gate for my driveway at home and at another weekend property. It is quite an investment, so i wanted to make the best choice. I must say i am very satisfied with the choice of the contractor -Mr.Frank and his team, who installed my both swing gates. He respected the due date, the price was reasonable and everything else was as agreed.

The provider for my swing gate in my backyard gave me a 5 years guarantee on the gate and I am very satisfied with the result. Also, the gate matches my other gates and fences which I had made before so you can not even see the difference. It looks great. The door is automatically opening and looks exactly as I wanted. You helped me save my time by finding me this group of professionals. I highly recommend your services to anyone.

Before deciding on a gate, you should think about the style of your home exterior, about the type of the door that will suit you best (sliding or swing gates), about the property size (so you can choose the right size), about maintenance you are willing to do and, lastly, about your budget.
It is usual for gates to open inwards. In some cases, it is even illegal for gates to open outwards, into public property.
Swing gates usually work more quietly and have less repair issues because there are not as many moving parts as are found in slide gates. However, sliding gates will save you much more space inside or outside the driveway. The dual swing gates open like a set of french doors. Since the length of the open gate is cut in half, it is often times easier to have this type of gate for residential driveways.
We share a driveway with our neighbors. We were thinking of having two complete systems. Each system will have its own intercom (with camera) and one side of the two sided swing gate. The gates will need to fit well together. There is a long driveway and the gate would be far away from each of the two houses.
