If you’re considering upgrading your home’s security and privacy with custom fencing and gates, you’re not alone. At Lee’s General Landscaping, we specialize in designing and installing high-quality fences and gates tailored to your unique property needs. A recent inquiry from a Rainier Valley homeowner showcases how thoughtful gate placement can enhance safety and accessibility.
Customer Query: Side Yard Gate Installation
“We’re looking for an estimate to install two gates along the side of our house in Rainier Valley (98118). One gate would be at the back of the house near the garage, where there are stairs leading down to the side yard. The second gate would be toward the front of the house on the same side. These gates are primarily intended to prevent people from accessing the side yard. We’re just starting to gather estimates and don’t have a specific timeline in mind.”
Our Recommendations for Rainier Valley Homeowners
1. Custom Gate Installation
Adding gates is a practical way to improve both security and functionality. For this project, we suggest:
- Gate Materials: Choose from wood, metal, or composite materials for durability and style.
- Design and Placement:
- Back Gate: Ensure the gate fits seamlessly into the area near the stairs, with easy access and weather-resistant materials.
- Front Gate: Create a sturdy and attractive gate that integrates well with the existing side fencing.
- Locking Mechanisms: Install secure latches or locks to maximize safety and deter unauthorized access.
2. Local Considerations
Rainier Valley’s mild but rainy climate necessitates proper material selection and installation techniques to prevent warping, rust, or deterioration over time.
