I called Terry to help with a damaged gate and masonry column. He came out the same day to help diagnose the issue and offered a sensible solution. He got the gate system repaired quickly and I was back up and running. I will definitely be calling Terry in the future. Thank you,

Excellent door and gate company. I would give them 10 stars. I had extremely tight tolerances and Terry and his crew engineered the gate down to the inch. Top of the line materials and great service. Highly recommend.

On Oct. 31 my electric gate stopped working and I called Alpha Gate and Door and talked to Lisa. She was great and based on my symptoms said she thought it was the battery and she would send Kealan out the next day. He came and replaced the battery with a 12 v 55ah battery. I asked him to rehang my reflector light on my neighbors new fence so the motion sensor would work. It had worked fine prior to that being taken down. He did that and it worked for a minute and then stopped. He rewired it and it worked once and he left. The next day I noticed the sensor was not working but I didn’t really care because my dog is too small to trigger it. I was charged $448 -$169 for the service call, $249 for the battery and $30 to rewire the sensor. I work exclusively from home as an attorney and never even use the gate during the week. A few weeks later the gate stopped operation completely and I called on Dec. 6. Lisa said she would send Kealan out. He called me and I said the gate would not open at all, the sensor was not working and the sensor was making a nonstop buzzing noise. He arrived fairly late in the day and I saw him pull into my driveway but he did not come to my door and went straight to the gate. I immediately went out there and I saw when he opened the cover that the battery charger lights were not on. He was in a very bad mood and starting ripping the battery out and said I needed a new battery. I said I guess it was because the battery charger wasn’t plugged in. I was not mad about it because that can happen to anyone. He got really mad at that point, I guess because I knew what had happened. He demanded to know whether I had unplugged it, grabbed a huge battery that would not even fit in my unit, then declared the charger had “allegedly” not been plugged in. As he was trying to force the battery in and was slamming everything around, I asked him if he had a smaller battery. He said no, it was whomever installed my gate opener’s fault because the antenna was on the left and they were usually on the right. He continued to try to force it but could not get the cover on. So he gave up and said he would come back Monday with a smaller battery. I assumed the sensor was not working because the battery had died. I heard nothing from anyone the following Monday and had had it so I called Lisa and yelled and told her the way Kealan had behaved and when was the battery actually going to be installed. She said she would talk to Kealan and I said do you have anybody else who is not a jackass who could come instead. She said she would investigate and call me back. She never called me back and apparently the next day around lunch Kealan snuck onto my property, did not tell me he was there, and put in another battery and texted me the gate was now working. I went outside to try it and the remote was not working at all. I have programmed remotes many times (I have done a lot of products liability work and handled cases with complex machinery failures and deposed a lot of engineers so I am not unfamiliar with this type of equipment) and checked it and the receiver was getting the signal from the transmitter but the control board was not opening the gate.So I called Lisa, explained he had come but not told me he was there, and that the remote was not opening the gate. I also apologized for yelling at her the day before because it was not her fault. She said she would tell him. After that call I remembered there is a reset button on the Patriot control board so I went out and pushed it and that caused the remote to work so I called Lisa and said it was working. The new battery is smaller than the one he had originally put in and retails for about $95. The motion sensor still does not work, I have done jumping jacks in front of of it to know avail. I am not bothering to call again about that because Kealan would probably get really mad again. He does NOT like his competence put into question. You decide if $249 is a fair markup on a $95 battery.

We are very happy with the service we received from Alpha Gate & Door. We had a 20-year old gate that stopped working. Upon our first call, they were quick to respond, provide an estimate & schedule the work. The tech was very thorough and at the end explained all of the updates. I know that if I ever need anything else, I will call them.

I highly recommend Alpha Gate & Door Company! The entire process was incredibly quick and professional! I spoke with Lisa (she’s amazing and extremely knowledgeable) on Tuesday and she came out Wednesday with a recommendation to replace the gate opener that was faulty and couldn’t handle the weight of my gate. I received the reasonable quote the same day and their technician, Keelan, was at my house on Friday of the SAME WEEK to install. Keelan was just as courteous and professional as Lisa and did an amazing job! The install was perfect and pristine! I’ve tried working with other companies and honestly they are hands down the best! If there were 10 stars available, I would give them 10!Thank you Alpha team!

Called on a Saturday morning around 0800 and left a message about issue I was having. I received a call back a few minutes later and was ask to send some pictures of the gate. Once I sent over the pictures, I got another call around 1200, asking if they could come by today as a crew was finished early and could swing by to fix. The gate was fixed by 3:00 same day. Thanks for the quick response and repair. I wasn't expecting that on a Saturday morning. So far so good.

Benefits of Residential Driveway Gates

There are many benefits of installing a residential driveway gate, including:

  1. Enhanced Security: One of the primary benefits of a driveway gate is improved security. With a gate in place, you can control who enters and exits your property, reducing the risk of theft, vandalism, and unwanted visitors. You can also add security features such as keypad access, intercom systems, and cameras for added peace of mind.

  2. Increased Privacy: A driveway gate can also provide increased privacy for your property. With a gate in place, you can limit visibility into your home and prevent passersby from seeing your private activities.

  3. Curb Appeal: A well-designed driveway gate can also enhance the aesthetic appeal of your property. With a range of materials and styles available, you can choose a gate that complements your home’s architecture and adds to its overall curb appeal.

  4. Convenience: Many driveway gates can be operated automatically, allowing you to open and close the gate from the comfort of your vehicle. This is particularly convenient during inclement weather or when you’re carrying heavy items.

  5. Increased Property Value: Finally, a driveway gate can add value to your property, making it more attractive to potential buyers. With the added benefits of security, privacy, and convenience, a driveway gate is a worthwhile investment for any homeowner.

Gate Types

There are several types of driveway gates available, each with its own set of features and benefits. Here are some common types of driveway gates:

  1. Swing Gates: Swing gates are a popular type of driveway gate that swings open and closed like a door. They can be designed to swing inward or outward, depending on your property’s layout and space restrictions.

  2. Sliding Gates: Sliding gates operate on a track and slide horizontally to open and close. They are ideal for properties with limited space and are often used in commercial settings.

  3. Bi-Folding Gates: Bi-folding gates are a variation of the swing gate that fold in the middle when opening and closing. They require less space than a traditional swing gate and can be a good option for properties with limited space.

  4. Vertical Pivot Gates: Vertical pivot gates operate by pivoting vertically, either upward or downward. They are a good option for properties with uneven terrain or sloped driveways.

  5. Barrier Arm Gates: Barrier arm gates are a simple and cost-effective option for controlling access to a property. They use a motorized arm to raise and lower a barrier bar to allow or restrict entry.

  6. Custom Gates: Finally, custom gates are designed to your specifications and can be made from a variety of materials and styles. They offer the most flexibility and can be tailored to fit any property and design aesthetic.

Gate Material Options

There are several materials to choose from when it comes to residential driveway gates. Each material has its own set of advantages and disadvantages. Here are some common gate material options:

  1. Wood: Wooden gates are a popular choice for their natural beauty and timeless appeal. They can be made from a variety of woods, such as cedar or redwood, and can be stained or painted to match your property’s aesthetic.

  2. Metal: Metal gates are a durable and long-lasting option that can be made from materials such as aluminum, iron, or steel. They offer a range of design options, from traditional wrought iron to modern steel and aluminum designs.

  3. Vinyl: Vinyl gates are a low-maintenance option that can mimic the look of wood or metal without the upkeep. They are resistant to fading, cracking, and warping and can be easily cleaned with soap and water.

  4. Chain Link: Chain link gates are a cost-effective option that provides security without sacrificing visibility. They are often used for industrial and commercial applications but can be customized to fit residential properties.

  5. Glass: Glass gates are a modern and stylish option that offers a sleek, minimalist look. They are often used for modern homes or commercial properties.

  6. Combination: Combination gates use a combination of materials, such as metal and wood or metal and glass, to create a unique and customized look. They offer the benefits of both materials and can be tailored to fit your property’s aesthetic.

Automatic Gate Systems

Automatic gate systems are an increasingly popular option for residential driveway gates. These systems use a motorized mechanism to open and close the gate automatically, providing convenience and security for homeowners. Here are some benefits of automatic gate systems:

  1. Convenience: With an automatic gate system, you can easily open and close your driveway gate with the push of a button, either from inside your home or from your vehicle. This eliminates the need to get out of your car to manually open the gate, making it a more convenient option.

  2. Security: Automatic gate systems provide an added layer of security for your property. With a code or remote-controlled access, you can control who enters and exits your property, reducing the risk of theft and vandalism.

  3. Safety: Automatic gate systems are designed with safety features to prevent accidents and injuries. They often come equipped with sensors that detect obstacles in the gate’s path, preventing it from closing and causing harm.

  4. Customization: Automatic gate systems can be customized to fit your property’s unique needs and design aesthetic. They can be designed to match your home’s architecture and can be made from a variety of materials and styles.

  5. Property Value: Finally, an automatic gate system can add value to your property, making it more attractive to potential buyers. With the added benefits of convenience, security, and safety, an automatic gate system is a worthwhile investment for any homeowner.

Driveway Gate Installation Process

The driveway gate installation process can vary depending on the type of gate and the specifics of your property. However, here are some general steps that are typically involved in the installation process:

Consultation:

The installation process typically begins with a consultation with a gate installation professional. During this consultation, the professional will assess your property, discuss your design preferences, and recommend gate options that meet your needs.

Design:

Once you have chosen a gate design, the installation professional will work with you to create a detailed plan for the gate installation, including the size and placement of the gate, as well as any additional features, such as an automatic opener or intercom system.

Preparation:

Before installation can begin, the installation team will need to prepare the installation site. This may involve clearing the area of any obstacles, digging post holes, and laying a foundation for the gate.

Installation:

With the site prepared, the installation team will begin installing the gate. This typically involves mounting the gate onto posts, installing hinges and hardware, and attaching any additional features or accessories.

Electrical Work:

If your gate features an automatic opener or intercom system, the installation team will need to perform electrical work to connect the gate to your home’s electrical system.

Testing:

Once the installation is complete, the installation team will test the gate to ensure that it is functioning properly. This typically involves opening and closing the gate multiple times to ensure that it operates smoothly and safely.

Final Inspection:

Finally, the installation team will conduct a final inspection to ensure that the gate meets all safety and quality standards. They will also provide you with any necessary instructions for operating and maintaining your new driveway gate.
