Walk & drive gates
Gates Built for Foothill Driveways and Entries
A gate is the hardest-working part of any Nevada County fence—carrying hinge load on sloped driveways, surviving winter rain on latches, and sometimes automating across long gravel approaches. Twin Rivers Fence builds, installs, and repairs wood, iron, and automated gates matched to your fence line and daily use.
Gate Types We Offer
Walk gates for side yards and pool access. Driveway swing and slide gates for ranch entries and urban cul-de-sacs. Custom widths for fire apparatus where Colfax and county fire codes apply.
Automation adds keypads, remotes, and solar where power is distant from the road on Rough and Ready parcels.
Built With the Fence in Mind
Gate posts are oversized and often tied to concrete footings separate from the fence run. We plan swing clearance on uphill driveways so gates do not scrape gravel berms after storms.

Frequently asked questions
How wide should a driveway gate be?
Ten to twelve feet single swing common; fourteen-plus for dual swing or wide equipment. Measure with mirrors extended.
Can you automate an existing gate?
Often yes if posts and hinges are stout—we inspect before quoting opener install.
Do gates need separate permits?
Usually follow fence permit; slide gates over public easement may need extra review.
