When planning the installation of a new resin driveway, many homeowners wonder whether to install gates before or after the driveway. At [Your Company Name], we recommend installing gates before the resin driveway installation or ideally during the dig out and base installation phase. Here’s why:
Why Install Gates Before the Resin Driveway?
- Ease of Cable Running: During the driveway installation, we can assist your gate installer in running necessary cables for automated gates. This process is much simpler before the resin is laid down, ensuring that no future digging or modifications to your pristine new surface are required.
- Footing Preparation: Proper installation of gates often requires digging for footings. Doing this before or during the driveway installation allows for seamless integration, preventing any damage to the finished resin surface. Footings can be accurately placed and reinforced, ensuring your gates are stable and secure.
- Coordination of Work: Coordinating gate and driveway installation simultaneously saves time and minimizes disruption. By planning these projects together, you can streamline the process, reducing the overall duration of work on your property.
- Prevent Damage: Installing gates before the resin driveway avoids any potential damage to the new surface from heavy equipment or construction work. This ensures your driveway remains flawless and maintains its aesthetic appeal from day one.
