Expert Installing A Gate in Jacksonville, FL

A properly installed gate does more than open and close. It controls who enters your property, keeps children and pets safely inside, and adds a clear boundary that visitors and neighbors can see. At H&W Fence Co, we have been serving Jacksonville families as a family team since 1981. We know this city because we were born and raised here. We serve homeowners across Jacksonville, Orange Park, Mandarin, Oceanway, Biltmore, Murray Hill, Whitehouse, and Oakleaf. Jacksonville's summer heat, heavy afternoon storms, and hurricane-season wind loads all put real stress on gate hardware and post footings. We account for those conditions on every install. Whether you need a driveway gate, a side-yard walk-through gate, or a pool-area gate, we size and set each one to fit your opening and hold up through Florida's toughest weather. Call us to get your gate project started.

Installing A Gate FAQ

Common questions about installing a gate in Jacksonville, FL.

Your gate should be compatible with your existing fence in height and material so it swings, latches, and holds alignment over time. H&W Fence Co serves homeowners across Jacksonville and can assess your current fence before recommending a gate style.

Yes, sloped driveways require careful post placement and hinge selection so the gate clears the ground and swings freely. We measure the slope and set posts to fit your specific driveway grade.

A self-closing, self-latching gate is required around pools in Jacksonville to meet Florida Building Code safety standards. We install pool-area gates sized and set to meet those requirements.

Many HOAs in areas like Mandarin and Biltmore have their own rules on gate height, style, and material that go beyond city zoning. Check your HOA's CC&Rs before installation so your gate meets both city and community standards.

Yes, we install gates on existing fence lines throughout Murray Hill, Whitehouse, and the surrounding Jacksonville area. We check the existing posts for strength before adding gate hardware to make sure the install holds.

Call H&W Fence Co directly to schedule a visit so we can measure your opening and recommend the right gate for your property. We serve Jacksonville, Oceanway, Orange Park, Mandarin, and all surrounding areas.

I read the review and noticed H&W did not get very good ratings but I decided to give them a try based on the few positive reviews I did read. I have to tell you that I am so happy I did. From the very beginning, they were professional, knowledgeable, prompt, and answered all my questions. I was given a more than fair quote and even came down a little more after I received another quote from another fencing company. The sales person Darrel was very polite, extremely helpful especially after I provided him with my Land survey. He saved me from future headaches regarding property lines. He always answered my calls and when he was not available, he would call back within the hour. His office administrator, Michelle, was also very professional, helpful, quick to respond to my emails and very pleasant. Even the field workers were a joy. They were very polite and if something was wrong or questionable, they would bring it to my attention before moving forward with the project. I put in a ranch style vinyl fence and it looks fantastic. The work was done in a timely manner, they cleaned up after themselves when they were finished. They are a great team. I would highly recommend this company.
