Fence and Driveway Gate Installation in Ottawa

A side-yard walk gate, a double driveway gate and a service entrance have different loads and clearance needs. We measure the usable opening, check the swing area and confirm access requirements before selecting the frame and hardware.

When a gate is part of a new fence, the supporting posts and surrounding layout are planned together. For an existing fence, we inspect whether the current posts can support the proposed gate.

The visible infill can coordinate with wood, vinyl, chain link or aluminum fencing, but the frame and support still have to resist sagging and repeated movement. The written quote separates the appearance choices from the structural gate details.

Automated or motorized openings require a separate review of equipment, power, safety devices and access controls before they can be included in a project.

A dragging or misaligned gate may be caused by hinges, a flexible frame, post movement or changed ground clearance. We identify the cause first so hardware is not replaced when the supporting structure is the real problem.
