GATE INSTALLATION FOR HOMES IN OREGON & WASHINGTON
Rick’s Custom Fencing & Decking installs gates for homeowners across Oregon & Washington. Gates are an essential part of any fence system, creating controlled access points while maintaining the structure and appearance of the surrounding fence.
A well-built gate does more than provide entry. It helps define how a space is used, whether that’s securing a backyard, creating access to a side yard, or allowing vehicles through a driveway opening. When properly integrated, a gate functions as part of the fence rather than a separate element.
Gates are typically built to match the material and style of the surrounding fence, helping the entire system feel cohesive while maintaining reliable operation over time.

How Gates Function Within a Fence System
Gates play a key role in how a fence works day to day. They need to operate smoothly, align with the fence structure, and hold up to repeated use.
Controlled Access Points
Gates allow entry into enclosed areas while maintaining privacy and security.
Designed to Match the Fence
Most gates are built using the same material and style as the surrounding fence to create a consistent appearance.
Built for Everyday Use
Proper framing, hinges, and latch hardware help gates open and close reliably over time.
Pedestrian and Driveway Access
Gate size and structure vary depending on use, from standard walk-through gates to wider openings designed for vehicle access.
Types of Gates and Material Options
Gate selection usually starts with the fence material and how the opening will be used. Different materials and styles affect appearance, maintenance, and long-term performance.
Cedar Gates
Cedar gates provide a natural wood appearance that pairs with cedar fencing and landscaped outdoor spaces.
Vinyl Gates
Vinyl gates offer a clean, consistent look with low maintenance and long-term durability.
Chain Link Gates
Chain link gates provide practical access points for functional fencing, including yards, utility areas, and larger property boundaries.
Simulated Gates
Simulated gates are designed to match composite or simulated fencing systems that replicate the look of wood or stone.
Driveway Gates
Driveway gates create wider access points for vehicles while defining and securing property entrances.
Arbor & Trellis Features
Arbor and trellis structures create more decorative entry points, often used at garden entrances or walkways.
Planning Gate Installation
Planning a gate starts with understanding how the space will be accessed and how the opening fits within the fence layout. Addressing these elements early helps the gate function properly and fit naturally within the fence. Rick’s works with homeowners to review:
- Location of the gate within the fence line
- Width of the opening for pedestrian or vehicle access
- Structural support for posts and hardware
- How the gate connects to the surrounding fence system
