#1 Ask our competitors how deep they set their hinge post?

A few of our competitors are telling potential customers that they set their hinge post 5' deep Their method of digging is usually done by a pair of hand held post hole diggers. These types of diggers can only dig a hole about 3 1/2' to 4' down.

Unlike our competitors, we use a 763 Bobcat drilling machine. All of our machine holes are drilled past 5' deep, we also fill the center of the hinge post with concrete to add additional strength from flexing. We offer a lifetime warranty against the gate from sagging or dragging on the ground.

#2 Ask our competitors how they paint their gates?

If they tell you they spray their gates there is a good chance you will have early rusting due to the fact the paint does not go behind cracks or inside tubes. We pressure wash and then dip our gates for 100% coverage inside & out. Some of our competitors advertise that they dip when they paint, however, many do not do so. That is why it is important to visit showrooms to verify the dipping process, style and quality.

#3 Ask our competitors how well their gates stay shut at the end?

Most gate opener arms only grab out around 35". The short grab does not hold gates well. We sell several new models that grab out past 50". These new units hold your gate secure at the end. Click here for more information about our Gate Openers.

#4 Ask our competitors if they have a showroom?

If a company can't show you their quality of work, you could end up with a poor quality job. For your convenience our showroom is open after hours Monday, Tuesday, & Thursday until 9:00 PM. Please call for an appointment.
