Swing Gate
Swing gates are a timeless and budget-friendly electric gate option. It opens inward or outward on heavy-duty hinges for smooth, quiet operation. They's best used in residential driveways with 12–16 feet of clear space and a level surface because they offer a classic look that complements traditional and upscale homes.

Telescopic Sliding Gates
Got small space? Telescopic sliding gates save up to 40% more room compared to standard sliding gates. It uses 2–3 synchronized panels that slide neatly into each other, which makes them ideal for wide entrances that's about 20 to 30 feet wide. This automatic gate type is also ideal for commercial complexes, multi-family residences, and industrial yards where space can be limited.
Standard Sliding Gate
Standard sliding gates move on a sturdy metal track and open at 10–12 inches per second. They’re excellent for sloped or narrow driveways, because you'll only need around 3 to 5 feet of vertical clearance. Their robust design makes them a top choice for warehouses, factories, and commercial properties that require high perimeter security.
Vertical Lift Gates
Tight spaces need vertical lift gates. This gate type does not need any lateral clearance. They’re perfect for high-security facilities, logistics centers, and industrial sites where snow, debris, or uneven ground can block traditional gates. You need at least 14 feet of overhead clearance to seamlessly install a vertical gate.

Electric Gates & Custom Metal FAQs
What factors affect the cost of installing an electric or custom metal gate?
The price depends on the gate type, size, materials, automation system, and site conditions. In Monterey Park, residential electric gate installations typically range from $4,000 to $12,000, while commercial systems with advanced access control can exceed $20,000.
What type of gate is best for my property—swing, sliding, telescopic, or vertical lift?
It depends on space, slope, and traffic needs. Swing gates need 12–16 feet of clear space, sliding gates work well on slopes, telescopic gates save up to 40% more space than standard sliding gates, and vertical lift gates need zero lateral clearance for tight spaces.
How long does it take to install a new electric gate?
Most residential installations take 1–3 days, while large commercial or custom projects may take 1–2 weeks. Delays can occur if concrete curing, custom fabrication, or electrical upgrades are required.
Do you offer custom designs for metal gates?
Yes, we create fully custom gates in steel, wrought iron, or aluminum with options like scrollwork, laser-cut panels, and wood inlays. Custom fabrication allows for unique branding or artistic designs, which can increase curb appeal and property value by up to 7%.
What materials do you recommend for durability and low maintenance?
Steel and wrought iron offer maximum strength and can last 50+ years with proper care, while aluminum is rust-proof and lasts 20+ years even in coastal areas. Composite wood inlays resist warping and cracking for 15–25 years.
Can you integrate access control systems like keypads, RFID, or smartphone apps?
Yes, we install and repair all major access control systems. RFID tags can process vehicles in under 2 seconds, smartphone apps allow remote operation from anywhere, and modern keypads can store up to 1,000 unique codes for secure access.
How often should my electric gate be serviced or maintained?
We recommend professional servicing at least once a year for residential gates and every 3–6 months for high-traffic commercial gates. Regular maintenance can extend system life by up to 30% and prevent costly breakdowns.
What kind of warranty do you provide on gates and automation systems?
Warranties vary by manufacturer, typically 1–5 years for operators and electronics, and 5–10 years for gate frames. We also provide workmanship guarantees to ensure your investment is protected.
Can you repair my existing gate operator or do I need a replacement?
In many cases, repairs are possible and cost-effective, especially for operators under 10 years old. If the unit is outdated, has recurring failures, or parts are discontinued, replacement is often the better long-term solution.
Do you handle both residential and commercial gate projects?
Yes, we work with homeowners, HOAs, businesses, industrial facilities, and multi-family properties. Our portfolio includes everything from single 12-foot driveway gates to 30-foot industrial sliding gates with advanced automation.
