"The Quality will remain long after the price is forgotten." Frederick Henry Royce (of Rolls-Royce)

OPTION #1 (12' or less Overall Width)

Our simplest, most economical, and certainly most popular Driveway Gate Assembly is for those with a rough opening between posts or column that is 12' or less. This is a pair of gates that are 2-1/4" thick, with interlocking joints to preserve the structural integrity without ever sagging. It is hinged with 4" ball-bearing hinges and mounts in the same simple procedure as the pedestrian gates, to either 6x6 wood posts, or when mounting to stucco or masonry columns, the gates are accompanied with a pair of jambs, reducing the overall opening by 3".

The Gates are built to your specified site dimensions.

For automated gates, we suggest the armature style motors that mount on one end directly to the posts/columns, and the other end to the bottom horizontal rails of the gates. It mounts as the final step in installation of the gates. Consult with your automation contractor for their preferred manufacturer.

All gates are made to your specified dimensions.

OPTION #2 (EXPOSED STEEL FRAME) 12'-16' overall width

--2-1/4" thick gates that are surface-mounted to an exposed steel frame. The steel frame is constructed by your automation contractor, following the dimensional specifications called out on the CPW drawings to insure the frame and the gate are aligned properly. The steel frame hinging becomes the responsibility of the automation contractor. Either steel posts, or masonry columns with an embedded steel plate are required to mount this assembly.

Your automation contractor will supply:
a) The exposed 2" x 2" steel tube frames.
b) The motors.
c) The activation keypads or remotes.
d) Mounting the wood gates to the steel frame.

All gates are made to your specified dimensions.

OPTION #4 SLIDING DRIVEWAY GATES

Double Driveway Gates sliding as a single span. --2-1/4" thickness, surface-mounted to a single exposed steel frame. The steel frame is constructed by your automation contractor, following the dimensional specifications called out on the CPW drawings to insure the frame and the gate are aligned properly. The posting can be 6x6 wood posts or masonry columns, as neither actually bear the load of the gate itself and simply act as alignment guides for the sliding rollers.

Examples of a sliding gate can be viewed at Drive Gate #24

With CPW GATE COLUMNS

-Any of the above assemblies can be mounted to the lighted or unlighted CPW Columns as an architectural shoulder to your gates. The Columns are designed to provide a more pleasing assembly and in lieu of standard wood or steel posts. The pattern of the upper grid section of the columns can be modified to compliment the pattern of the Driveway Gate.

Gate Columns are two-sided grids and pickets, with the other two sides as solid. They arrive with one removable side to allow the Column to slip around the site posts, furred for a snug fit to any post dimension.

When using 6x6 steel posts to hinge your gates, the Gate Columns are mortised to accept the welded arm drawn off the steel post, and slip over the post as 3-sided assemblies, with the fourth side applied on site.

When using 6x6 wood posts, the same procedure as above is followed, with the exception that the hinges are standard 4" ball-bearing butt hinges and hinge directly to the Gate Column.

*With the Gate Columns, approximately 3-1/2" is lost from the overall opening width between the steel posts.

Note: All commissions include, upon receipt of advance payment, a posting of statements, drawings, site photos (when applicable) and any data that might simplify communications. This site is available normally withinone week of payment and remains active for the duration of the project. Upon receipt of an email linking you to your site, it is necessary to review and confirm the data before work can begin.

Extraneous Notes and Explanations

*	How to Proceed? Email or call CPW with the following information:
	1)	Gate Style as selected from either the Garden Gate galleries or the Driveway Gate gallery #2.
	2)	The appropriate Option from the above tables.
	3)	Dimensions:
		A)	Overall width
		B)	Overall height from grade.
	4)	CPW Gate Columns, if preferred, as lighted or unlighted.
	5)	Your billing information for a 50% deposit is entered through the Payment link at the top of every page. Your statement and dimensions drawings posted within four days of receipt of payment. An email is sent to you with this link for your review and approval of drawings.

Extenuating Circumstances
	1)	If the site warrants further attention, regarding design or site conditions, CPW can address your needs best if you first send us jpegs of the proposed site.
	2)	.......Sloping grades If your drive slopes up or down, we of course need to know the exact rise and fall for the overall span Often, with sloping grades that drop more than 6" over the span of the overall rough opening, the bottom of the drive gate will run parallel to the slope and the top remain level. We call this a 'Racked' gate, and adds approximately 8% to any gate cost.
	3)	........Locating Installers and Automation Contractors CPW provides the gates only. We will work with the homeowner or the contractor to accomodate any needs toward the best end result.
	4)	Requests for Gate Designs assistance to compliment existing aesthetics (We are happy to consider free of charge any requests regarding the design of your gate. Please fax or email a sketch, blueprints, or attached jpegs.
A Few Miscellaneous Notes
	1)	All Driveway Gate assemblies are shipped unfinished. We suggest you seal you gate at least initially to help it acclimate to the local climate.
	2)	* PDF Installion Manual for all CPW Products * To Supplemental Specifications
	3)	Almost all of the CPW Driveway Gates are double gates. If you prefer a single-span swinging gate, our maximum width is 8-ft. If you have a sliding gate, two CPW gate leaves will mount onto your single sliding steel frame.
Follow the link below to a discussion of finishing techniques and recommended manufactuers.

Access Communications:
		The most basic format is the simple remote, activating the gates upon approach from your vehicle through a hand-held remote or configured to your cell phone. If the Drive Gates are not visible from the house, it is often best to opt for a keypad and intercom that allows communication between the Driveway Gate and residence (The keypad is for homeowners to key in their code--as well as overriding keys by Fire Dept, with the intercom relegated for visitors wishing to gain access.). Access is acitvated from within the house. Automation can be deactivated to either maintaining the Drive Gates in an open postion or in the event of a forecasted power failure due to storms, etc.

Regarding Shipping

1) A typical wood gate within the Continental United States ships UPS Freight.
2) UPS may have additional charges if the site is not easily accessible to their trucks. CPW not be responsible for any of these charges.
3) When items are shipped motor freight, the items become the property of the purchaser when they leave the UPS dock. Motor freight companies may have strict policies regarding damaged freight. If you sign for a damaged package without noting the damage at the time of the delivery, they will often not allow the claim. If you detect some damage to the crate, please make a note of this on the Bill of Lading the driver will ask you to sign. You do not need to refuse delivery or ask the driver to wait. Your signed note will be sufficient in the event of a claim.
4) Please make sure you understand the shipping options and how your order will ship before placing an order.

Relax. As of winter 2009, only one shipment has arrived with damage. This, in June 2003, involved a small break on a single rail of a single panel and CPW replaced it without question. The fault was ours.

Furthermore:
How will my product be packaged for motor freight shipping?
Your rpoduct will arrived crated. If it is too heavy to be handled by a single individual, the truck will be equipped with a lift gate. The drive will off-load the crate at the base of your driveway. It is your responisbility to move the crate fbeyond this point. Often a driver will assist with this for a nominal tip.
