Questions and Answers
What types of gates do you install?
We install both manual and automatic gates for residential and commercial properties. Our automatic gate systems include swing and sliding options, and we can integrate them with keypads, remote controls, or phone apps. For manual gates, we offer custom designs in steel, aluminum, or wrought iron.
How do you prevent fence posts from shifting in Merced's soil?
Merced's soil can erode over time, causing posts to lean. We dig post holes deeper than standard—often 36 inches—and use concrete footings with gravel drainage to resist shifting. We also seal the post bases to prevent moisture damage. For panel cracking, we recommend weatherproofing treatments and proper spacing to allow for expansion.
Do you offer prefab fence sections for DIY installation?
Yes, we sell prefabricated 8-foot fence sections made from durable steel or aluminum. These are pre-welded and ready to install yourself, saving on labor costs. We can also customize the design, including picket spacing and height, to match your property's look.
