Driveway and Entry Gates

Driveway and Entry Gates in Mount Pleasant

A driveway gate is the first thing visitors see and the last line between the street and your property. Newtrouble fabricates single-swing, double-swing, and cantilever slide gates sized to the exact opening, then sets them on steel posts anchored in concrete footings. Whether the driveway off Mathis Ferry Road is dead level or drops toward the marsh, we pick the gate style that fits the grade.

Why a Properly Set Driveway Gate Matters

A gate is only as good as its posts. A frame welded true but hung on a shallow footing will sag, drag, and eventually rack out of square. We dig the footings below the frost line, size them to the weight of the gate, and let the concrete cure before anything hangs. That is the difference between a gate that seats against the latch for years and one that scrapes the drive by spring.

Our Process

We measure the opening, the slope, and the post locations first, then fabricate the frame and pickets in our shop to your dimensions. Cantilever slide gates get a V-track and roller assembly sized to the span. Once the posts are set and cured, we hang the gate, check the swing or the roll, and tune it until it closes clean. If you want automation later, we set the posts to accept an operator.
