About gates and automation
Gates fail before fences: hinges sag, latches drift and driveways demand something wider than the standard opening. Fencers build matching single and double swing gates and sliding gates for tight driveways, and automation runs from hardwired openers to solar kits for spots without nearby power. Get the gate posts oversized; automation punishes flimsy posts.
Getting quotes in Rosetta
When you enquire about gates and automation, describe the job specifically: what is happening, how long it has been going on, and anything you have already tried. That detail helps a provider assess the request and may improve quote accuracy if they respond.
Local knowledge counts
If the timing for gates and automation is flexible, include that in the Rosetta request and ask whether it changes availability or price. The provider remains responsible for confirming both.
Quick answers
Colorbond or timber, which is better?+
Colorbond wins on lifespan and zero maintenance; timber wins on upfront cost and looks where a painted or natural finish suits the streetscape. In termite-prone and bushfire-prone areas steel has a clear practical edge. Many blocks sensibly mix both: Colorbond on the boundaries, timber out front.
How much does fencing cost per metre?+
Timber paling fences typically cost $75 to $130 per metre installed, Colorbond $85 to $150, tubular aluminium $120 to $250, and frameless glass pool fencing $275 to $600. Gates, old fence removal and sloping ground add to any of these. Per-metre quotes should state height and materials precisely.
Who pays for a boundary fence between neighbours?+
In every state the default is a half share each for a sufficient dividing fence, with formal notice processes if a neighbour will not engage. Anything above a basic sufficient fence, extra height, premium materials, is paid by the person who wants it. Put the agreement in writing before work starts; fencing disputes are tribunal staples.
