Automatic Gate Installation in Highland Park: what we see

Installing an automatic gate in Highland Park means working with frontages laid out over a century ago. Drives are short, the house is close behind, and the street is close in front, so there is little room for a leaf to swing or for a car to wait. Most owners want ornamental iron that suits the house, and that iron is heavy. The clay here moves, so posts and footings have to be sized to keep a heavy gate square for years.

We plan each Highland Park installation from the ground up: gate size and swing direction, footing depth and post size for the soil, power from the house and conduit routes that avoid old brick drives. Safety is designed in to UL 325 and ASTM F2200, with photo eyes placed for a short drive. Design and approval come before work; we confirm what the town and your HOA require. We install on frontages in Old Highland Park and along Armstrong Parkway.

Automatic Gate Installation in Highland Park: questions

Does an automatic gate in Highland Park need approval before installation?

Often some form of review applies, particularly for work visible from the street. Rules can change and vary by property, so we confirm what the town and your HOA require before ordering anything, and we can provide drawings and specifications for the application. Work starts only once approvals are in hand.

Can an automatic gate fit a short Highland Park driveway?

Usually, with careful planning. A swing gate may need to open inward or be split into two leaves to clear the house, and a slide gate is an option where a leaf will not fit. We also set the safety devices and timers for the short space between the gate and the street.
