- Material Options
- Gate Types
- Additional Features
- Property Value Impact
Trying to find the right gate can be overwhelming, but once equipped with the right information, your final decision will no doubt be a much easier one.
Material Options for Your Gate
The key deciding factors for choosing a new gate material are durability and maintenance. Let’s take a look at the primary material options for your new gate.
- Aluminum
Aluminum gates are great for aesthetics, and are ideal for coastal areas, as aluminum does not rust in moist condition due to its protective layer of aluminum oxide. If sturdiness outweighs your desire for good looks, there are better options than aluminum. - Wrought Iron
Wrought iron outclasses all other gate material options when it comes to strength and sturdiness. Although this luxury comes with a higher price tag, it is worth the investment. Unlike aluminum, wrought iron gates are capable of rusting, but this can be prevented with coating.
What New Gate Features Are Available?
A wide assortment of features is available for a new gate system, covering all aspects of needs from safety, to security, to convenience. Here are a few feature options available to maximize the security of your home or business.
Automatic Gate Opener
- An automatic gate opener immediately increases security, as it eliminates the need to exit your vehicle to open the gate manually.
- Gate Sensor System
For families with small children and pets, investing in sensors with your new electric gate installation allows for peace of mind, as this technology halts gate operation if pets, children, debris or other obstructions are detected nearby. - Access Control
Having an access panel installed gives you control of who can enter the property. This comes in many forms, including telephone entry, remote openers, and key cards. Whatever type of gate you decide to install, driveway, swing, sliding, we will make sure you have the best sensor and access controls for your gate’s operation.
How Much Does a New Gate Affect My Property Value?
Installing a new gate is one of the most cost-effective methods to increase the value of your home and overall property. In San Diego, home values have shot up over 10 percent over the past year, and continued increase is expected over the next year.
With knowledge of these statistics, it is a perfect time to maximize the value potential with a new gate, which could be as much as five percent, depending on whether you choose a sliding or swing gate, and the material you choose.
