Atlanta's driveway gate installation experts
Looking for driveway gate installation near you? FenceWorks of Georgia has designed, built, and automated entry gates across metro Atlanta since 2006 — cedar and pressure-treated wood, rust-proof ornamental aluminum, and welded steel, most on a steel internal frame so they swing true for years. We handle the whole entry: the gate, the operator, and the access controls, wired to code by licensed installers. Browse the gate styles below, then get a free on-site estimate. (Exploring walk gates or a fully bespoke design? Start at our gates & access control hub.)
- Cost: quoted per project — width, single vs. double, material, the operator, and access controls drive the price; every quote is free, on-site, and itemized
- Materials: cedar and pressure-treated wood, ornamental aluminum, welded steel, and Trex composite — most built on a welded steel frame that resists sag
- Types: single and double swing, cantilever and V-track slide for tight or sloped drives; barrier arms and vertical-lift gates for commercial entries
- Automation: keypads, remotes, smartphone control, intercoms and call boxes, vehicle loop sensors, safety photo-eyes, and battery backup
- Timeline: most installations finish in 1–2 days; trenching for power or custom fabrication can add time

Wood driveway gates
Privacy, board-on-board, horizontal, and picket driveway gates framed on welded steel and hung to swing true — automated to match your fence and your entry.
Aluminum & steel driveway gates
Rust-proof ornamental aluminum and welded-steel driveway and custom estate gates — single and double swing, V-track slide, spear-top and flat-top — with operators, keypads, and loop sensors.
Choosing the right gate for your property
First impressions matter. A custom driveway or estate gate projects the right image for your home or business — and adds a layer of security a standard fence gate can't. Gates come in more configurations than most people expect, and the right one depends on your driveway's slope, the space you have to work with, and how much traffic the entry handles.
Residential driveway gates
- Swing gates — by far the most common residential choice: a single leaf that opens like a door, or a double that swings open like French doors. Simple, elegant, and easy to automate.
- Cantilever slide gates — free-floating on a counterbalance with no track across the driveway, so leaves, sticks, and debris never block them. A great fit for sloped or gravel drives.
- V-track and rolling slide gates — slide along the fence line instead of swinging, ideal when the driveway is short, the grade climbs quickly, or there's no room for a swing arc.
Commercial gates
- Automatic slide gates — the workhorse for businesses restricting traffic into parking lots and yards; the full gate rolls clear of the entry.
- Barrier arm gates — the parking-garage-style arm: purely for vehicle and traffic control, and an extremely cost-effective way to manage a busy entrance.
- Pivot and vertical lift gates — high-security entries that rise to admit each vehicle, typically used at industrial facilities and secure yards.

We are glad to have worked with FenceWorks of Georgia on our driveway swing gate. Pepe and his team handcrafted a beautiful new custom gate with hardware, cleared away all of the old material, and offered advice on staining the new wood. Austin was easy to work with on planning and scheduling the project; he took the time to talk through our options and never tried to upsell. Our service was able to be completed earlier than planned and at a great price. Thank you!

Driveway gate FAQ
Quick answers on automation, materials, and access control.
It depends on width, single vs. double, material, the operator, and access controls. We give free on-site estimates with a clear, itemized quote so you know exactly what your entry will cost.
Often, yes. If the gate and posts are structurally sound we can retrofit a swing or slide operator with a keypad, remotes, and safety sensors. If they aren't, we'll build a properly framed gate that holds the hardware long-term.
Swing gates suit most driveways with room to open inward; V-track and cantilever slide gates are ideal for tight spaces, steep slopes, or wide commercial entries. We'll recommend the right type on-site.
Keypads, wireless remotes, smartphone control, intercoms and call boxes, vehicle loop sensors, safety photo-eyes, and battery backup — wired to code by licensed installers.
Cedar and pressure-treated wood, rust-proof ornamental aluminum, welded steel, and Trex composite to match a composite fence — most on a steel internal frame for strength. We match the gate to your fence and budget.
Yes. We repair and maintain gates and their automation — sagging or dragging gates, operators that quit opening, keypads and safety sensors — and we can often retrofit automation onto a sound existing gate. If a gate is past saving, we'll quote a rebuild on a proper steel frame.
Most driveway gate installations are completed in one to two days. Automated entries that need trenching for power, new operator pads, or a custom-fabricated gate can take a little longer — we'll give you a clear timeline with your quote.
Yes — a driveway gate controls the one entrance a fence can't: the driveway itself. It keeps trespassers, solicitors, and unwanted vehicles off your property, adds privacy, and with an intercom or call box you know who is at your entry before they come in. It's a layer of security a standard walk gate can't provide.
