Every good fence needs access, and this is where gates play their role. Gates are constructed from similar materials as the rest of the fence and should be designed to complement the overall aesthetic. They can swing open or slide, depending on the space available and the desired functionality. Installing a gate involves precision; it must be aligned correctly with the fence to ensure ease of use and security.

Even little items like the screws and bolts used can be something that makes installation a pain or detracts from the look of the fence.  Make sure the hardware is color matched to your pieces and uses a stronger hex-head on the bolts that allow use of a socket.  Phillips head style screws can often strip easily and make installation a pain.
