We Help You Choose the Right Driveway Electric Gates

When you want a gate with design, security and the function you need, Capitol Fence has the experience you need.

The Right Material for Your Gate

If you have fencing that surrounds your property, you want a gate that keeps the look flowing. The types of material that are available are wood, vinyl, wrought iron or aluminum. You may choose the beauty of wood with iron. We can also customize your gate with glass or pewter, or iron finials to adorn the top.

At Capitol Fence, we work with you to create the look and design you want. We guide you through the process of choosing the aesthetic choices, as well as the choice of materials, and the durability. We work within your budget and your requirements to choose the proper gate opening. The placement of your gate and the general purpose of your gate will allow us to suggest the type of opening that will work for you.

Swinging Electric Gates

The swinging style opening is a classic beauty. This is a popular choice for manual opening. At Capitol Fence, our Ornamental Iron Fence for Austin residences and commercial properties feature a swinging gate that opens automatically.

This works great for a property owner, however, public places such as housing complexes or businesses would likely be better suited with other accessories that limit access. Swinging gates could be single or double gates, they may swing inwards or outwards.

Sliding Electric Gates

Choosing sliding gates are ideal for businesses. These work especially well when you have two-way traffic. Utilizing sliding gates involves heavier materials like steel or wrought iron. Sliding gates that are designed as a double slider, do cost more, are the fastest for entry and exit, but repairs and maintenance may be an issue.

3 Options for Automatic Opening Gates

With automatic opening gates, there is a choice of three options. These are solar-powered, battery-operated and electric. All three of these are popular choices for residential gates. Manual opening gates subject the user to the elements of weather.

Add Solar Panels to Your Gates

Solar power is becoming a popular option in gate openings. This type of gate opening can withstand multiple openings and is a durable option. However, the initial costs are higher than other options. But a benefit of solar power use is that there are possibly discounts on taxes for homeowners.
