Your Electric Gate Installers questions, answered

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on HomeGuide.

How much does an electric driveway gate cost?

An electric driveway gate costs $1,600 to $13,000 installed on average. Most homeowners spend about $7,000 total for the gate, opener, and installation. The cost of an automatic gate depends on the size, type, material, and features. If you already have a driveway gate and you just want to add the automatic opener, expect to pay $400 to $5,500 for materials and professional installation.

Does installing an automatic driveway gate require a permit?

Some cities require a permit to install an electric driveway gate. Permit fees for the installation average $100 to $300 but may be higher depending on the scope of the project. Installations requiring major changes to your electrical wiring will typically cost more for the permitting and inspections. 

Is it possible to manually operate automatic driveway gates?

Yes, all automatic driveway gates are equipped with a manual release function. This allows you to operate the gate during power outages and provides emergency responders with access if necessary. It’s important to discuss the operation of your gate with your contractor and test the manual release after installation to ensure you’re prepared to use it if needed.

How long does it take to install an electric security gate?

Installing an electric security gate typically takes between 1 to 2 days. However, the exact intallation time can vary based on the size and complexity of the project. For instance, automating an existing gate or installing a small, simple one may only take a few hours. On the other hand, the installation of a complex gate system with multiple advanced features will likely take longer. 

What is the average lifespan of an electric driveway gate?

Most automatic driveway gates can last 10 to 15 years with proper care and maintenance. To ensure the longevity of your electric driveway gate, you should:

  • Lubricate all moving parts and components every 3 to 6 months to prevent premature wear.
  • Regularly clear any landscaping overgrowth and other debris from the area around the gate.
  • Periodically check for pests and nests in and around the gate’s components.

How do I choose an electric gate installer near me?

There are many variables when it comes to installing an automatic driveway gate. Compare quotes from multiple electric driveway gate companies near you and remember to:

  • Ask about their training, qualifications, and experience installing electric gates.
  • Confirm the company is licensed, bonded, and insured.
  • Look for positive customer feedback on HomeGuide and Google.
  • Ask for references from their recent automated gate installations.
  • Request a detailed breakdown of material, labor, permit, and site prep costs after an in-person assessment of your property.
  • Avoid making large payments up front and never pay in full before the job is complete.

What questions should I ask when getting estimates for automatic driveway gate installation?

Electric driveway gates can be dangerous if not installed correctly. Ask these important questions to help you choose the most qualified professional for the job:

  • How long have you been in business in this area?
  • Are you a member of any professional organizations?
  • Is your company licensed, bonded, and insured?
  • What gate type and material do you recommend for my property?
  • Can you confirm the gate has been lab-tested for safety?
  • What maintenance is needed after installation?
  • What exactly does the installation estimate include?
  • What extra features do you offer, and what are the associated costs?
  • Where is the manual release function, and can you show me how to operate it?
  • Who should I contact if there are problems after the installation?
