The Most Popular Gate Style in Greater LA

Swing gates are the most common choice for LA residential driveways — and for good reason. A single or double leaf gate swinging inward or outward looks clean, operates reliably, and works with almost any fence style or material.

We install swing gates on all property types across Greater Los Angeles. Whether you need a simple manual swing gate or a fully automated system with remote, keypad, and intercom access, we size the motor and hardware correctly for your gate weight and usage.

Key consideration: swing gates need clearance for the arc of movement. We check your driveway slope and available space during the free site visit and will tell you upfront if a slide gate or bi-fold would serve you better.

Swing Gate Options

Single, Double, or Custom Width

Swing gates come in a range of configurations. We’ll recommend the right setup for your driveway dimensions, slope, and access requirements.

Single Leaf Gates

One gate panel swinging to one side. Ideal for narrower driveways (up to ~12 feet). Simpler mechanism, faster operation, lower cost than double.

Double Leaf Gates

Two panels swinging inward from the center. The standard choice for wider driveways and properties that want a grand entrance aesthetic.

Automated Openers

Linear arm actuators or underground operators — we select the right motor for your gate weight. Battery backup, safety sensors, and remote included.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

How much clearance does a swing gate need?
The gate needs to swing in a full arc — typically equal to the gate width. So a 10-foot gate needs 10 feet of clearance behind it. Sloped driveways can complicate this; we check during the site visit.
Can swing gates work on a sloped driveway?
Swing gates can work on mild slopes with arc-to-ground adjustments, but steep slopes often make slide gates a better option. We’ll assess during your free quote visit.
What materials are swing gates made from?
Wrought iron, tubular steel, and aluminium are the main options in LA. Each has different maintenance and cost profiles. We’ll discuss what suits your fence style and budget.
How long does swing gate installation take?
Usually one day for a standard residential swing gate installation. We’ll confirm the timeline in the quote.
What happens to a swing gate during a power outage?
All automated swing gates we install include a manual release so you can operate the gate by hand if the power is out. Battery backup options are also available.
