Gates get a full 2x4 frame with a diagonal brace, cedar edge boards, and black butterfly hinges.

By default the finished side faces out toward your neighbors and the street. In the estimator you can flip any run to face your yard, or remove a run you don't need, and see the result in 3D before you decide.
Do you build commercial fences and automatic gates?
Yes. Switch the estimator to Commercial for chain link and wrought iron perimeter fencing, barbed wire and privacy slats, and automatic cantilever slide or double swing gates with keypad, card reader, or video intercom access.
Is the online estimate my final price?
No. It's a range based on our current prices. Grade changes, rock, permits, and access can move the price, so we confirm an exact number after a free site measure (residential) or site survey (commercial).
