A gate at the entrance to your home or property is a great addition, it not only adds the beauty of your home but also gives security. A gate is essential to keep your home and family protected from trespassers. Gates are often the first thing visitors see as they approach your property, and as such can be important in creating first impressions. A driveway security gate installation gives you more security as no one can walk up to your home without any announcement. Some of the various types of gates that can be installed in your house are listed here:
Manual Gate
The cost of manual gates requires to be physically opened by someone. The manual gates can be constructed with an intercom system so that the visitor can speak with residents of the home. A manual security gate may be the option for those who use the gate mostly for privacy rather than greeting guests.
Automatic Gate
An automatic gate is one that opens via remote control, keypad or voice sensor. Automatic gates entitle people to come and go on their own without the requirement of the homeowner to physically open and close the gate upon arrivals and departures. These gates provide significantly increased control over who can and cannot gain access, helping to prevent against unwanted intrusion and ensure that nobody gets up the driveway or past the entryway unless they are supposed to.
Gate Construction and Materials
The price of the gate also depends on the material you use for your security gate installation. Residential driveway gates are generally made of aluminum, iron, steel, wood, or vinyl. Gates are either single or dual panel. A dual-panel gate is obviously more expensive than a single panel gate and an iron gate has more price than a vinyl one. Firstly, decide on the level of security and the aesthetic look you desire and then compare the prices of the gates that suit what you are seeking.

A security gate can increase the appearance of a home as well as lead to increased security. Both of these aspects can greatly increase the value of your property when you look to sell your house. So even if the price tag seems steep at first, you may see the financial benefits when it is time to resell your home. Thus, a security gate installation enhances the safety of the property and decreases the risk of theft and vandalism. These security gates are powerful deterrents against any criminal activity.
