Natural Finish Stain

You’ll love the beautiful and authentic look of a natural finish stain on your wood fence. A natural finish stain is a versatile choice that enhances the wood grain and adds warmth to your outdoor space. Whether you have a traditional or modern home, this stain color will complement any style.

The natural finish stain allows the natural beauty of the wood to shine through while providing a protective barrier against the elements. It brings out the unique characteristics of each piece of wood, highlighting the knots, grains, and textures. This creates a sense of authenticity and adds a touch of rustic charm to your fence.

Not only does the natural finish stain enhance the aesthetics of your wood fence, but it also helps to prolong its lifespan. The stain acts as a barrier, preventing moisture from seeping into the wood and causing rot or decay. By choosing a natural finish stain, you are investing in the durability and longevity of your fence.

Now, let’s transition to the next section about the ‘dark walnut stain’ which adds a bold and rich color to your wood fence.

Dark Walnut Stain

Start by considering the shade of Dark Walnut for your wood fence. This rich, deep color adds a touch of elegance and sophistication to any outdoor space. Whether you have a cedar, pine, or redwood fence, the dark walnut stain will enhance the natural beauty of the wood, while providing protection against the elements.

One of the great things about the dark walnut stain is its versatility. It pairs well with different wood species, allowing you to achieve the desired look for your fence. Whether you have a modern or traditional style, this stain will bring warmth and character to your outdoor area.

The dark walnut stain not only enhances the appearance of your wood fence, but it also provides long-lasting protection. It helps to prevent the wood from rotting, warping, or fading due to exposure to the sun, rain, and other elements. With regular maintenance, your fence will stay looking beautiful for years to come.

Now that you have explored the dark walnut stain, let’s move on to the next section and discover the stunning possibilities of the gray wash stain.

Gray Wash Stain

If you’re looking to achieve a modern and contemporary look for your wood fencing, consider using a gray wash stain. This stain creates a sleek and stylish finish that is perfect for modern homes.

Additionally, a gray wash stain can also create a weathered and rustic aesthetic, adding character and charm to your outdoor space.

The neutral tones of gray also blend well with outdoor landscaping and décor, making it a versatile choice for any style.

Achieve a Modern and Contemporary Look

To achieve a modern and contemporary look, it’s important to consider the color of the stain for your wood fencing. By choosing the right stain, you can achieve a sleek and minimalist style that will instantly upgrade the overall appearance of your fence.

Opt for darker stain colors like ebony or charcoal to create a bold and sophisticated look. Additionally, consider incorporating sleek metal accents such as stainless steel or black iron hardware to further enhance the modern aesthetic. These accents can add a touch of elegance and create a cohesive look that is sure to impress.

However, if you’re looking to create a weathered and rustic aesthetic, we’ll explore that in the next section. So, let’s move on to the next step and discover how to achieve a charming and timeless look for your wood fencing.

Create a Weathered and Rustic Aesthetic

For a weathered and rustic aesthetic, consider incorporating natural elements like weathered barnwood and distressed farmhouse accents into your fence design. These materials add character and charm, giving your fence a timeless and vintage look.

Weathered barnwood brings a sense of history and nostalgia, while distressed farmhouse accents add a touch of authenticity and warmth. The combination of these elements creates a unique and inviting atmosphere that will make your outdoor space feel cozy and welcoming.

Additionally, the weathered and rustic look of your fence will blend well with outdoor landscaping and décor, creating a cohesive and harmonious design. By choosing these materials, you’re not only creating a beautiful fence, but also a space that reflects your personal style and desire for belonging.

Blend Well with Outdoor Landscaping and Décor

Blending well with outdoor landscaping and décor, the weathered and rustic fence adds a charming and cohesive touch to your outdoor space. The stained wood complements the natural elements of your backyard, creating a harmonious environment that invites relaxation and enjoyment.

Imagine sitting on your outdoor furniture, surrounded by lush greenery, and admiring the warm tones of the fence that seamlessly blend with the surrounding colors. By carefully selecting the stain color for your wood fencing, you can achieve perfect color coordination with your outdoor furniture, creating a visually appealing and inviting atmosphere.

Now, let’s explore the next section about the ‘redwood stain’ and how it can enhance the beauty of your wood fence.

Redwood Stain

Redwood stain provides a rich and warm color for wood fencing. It is a popular choice for redwood fence installation due to its numerous benefits. Here are four reasons why you should consider using redwood stain for your wood fence:

  1. Enhanced Durability: Redwood stain not only adds color to your fence but also protects it from weathering and decay. It forms a protective barrier that extends the lifespan of your fence, ensuring its longevity.

  2. Natural Beauty: The deep reddish-brown hue of redwood stain enhances the natural beauty of the wood. It brings out the unique grain patterns and adds warmth to your outdoor space, creating a welcoming and inviting atmosphere.

Great to work with a supplier that actually bids a job, completes it on time and on budget. Terry and his crew were a pleasure to deal with and installed a great product on a very challenging area. Would definitely recommend and use again

The service and the work that was done was exceptional. We needed to replace three very old (and very heavy) garage doors in a home that was built in 1960. There were a number of challenges along the way and each one was met professionally and in a timely manner. Lisa was an excellent communicator and highly responsive. Kevin did an extraordinary job with a fairly involved installation. His 'can do' attitude was very refreshing and reassuring. As noted, the final result was terrific. The pricing was VERY reasonable and very fair. The install was completed two days ago and I have already received compliments from the neighbors!

I called Terry to help with a damaged gate and masonry column. He came out the same day to help diagnose the issue and offered a sensible solution. He got the gate system repaired quickly and I was back up and running. I will definitely be calling Terry in the future. Thank you,

Excellent door and gate company. I would give them 10 stars. I had extremely tight tolerances and Terry and his crew engineered the gate down to the inch. Top of the line materials and great service. Highly recommend.

On Oct. 31 my electric gate stopped working and I called Alpha Gate and Door and talked to Lisa. She was great and based on my symptoms said she thought it was the battery and she would send Kealan out the next day. He came and replaced the battery with a 12 v 55ah battery. I asked him to rehang my reflector light on my neighbors new fence so the motion sensor would work. It had worked fine prior to that being taken down. He did that and it worked for a minute and then stopped. He rewired it and it worked once and he left. The next day I noticed the sensor was not working but I didn’t really care because my dog is too small to trigger it. I was charged $448 -$169 for the service call, $249 for the battery and $30 to rewire the sensor. I work exclusively from home as an attorney and never even use the gate during the week. A few weeks later the gate stopped operation completely and I called on Dec. 6. Lisa said she would send Kealan out. He called me and I said the gate would not open at all, the sensor was not working and the sensor was making a nonstop buzzing noise. He arrived fairly late in the day and I saw him pull into my driveway but he did not come to my door and went straight to the gate. I immediately went out there and I saw when he opened the cover that the battery charger lights were not on. He was in a very bad mood and starting ripping the battery out and said I needed a new battery. I said I guess it was because the battery charger wasn’t plugged in. I was not mad about it because that can happen to anyone. He got really mad at that point, I guess because I knew what had happened. He demanded to know whether I had unplugged it, grabbed a huge battery that would not even fit in my unit, then declared the charger had “allegedly” not been plugged in. As he was trying to force the battery in and was slamming everything around, I asked him if he had a smaller battery. He said no, it was whomever installed my gate opener’s fault because the antenna was on the left and they were usually on the right. He continued to try to force it but could not get the cover on. So he gave up and said he would come back Monday with a smaller battery. I assumed the sensor was not working because the battery had died. I heard nothing from anyone the following Monday and had had it so I called Lisa and yelled and told her the way Kealan had behaved and when was the battery actually going to be installed. She said she would talk to Kealan and I said do you have anybody else who is not a jackass who could come instead. She said she would investigate and call me back. She never called me back and apparently the next day around lunch Kealan snuck onto my property, did not tell me he was there, and put in another battery and texted me the gate was now working. I went outside to try it and the remote was not working at all. I have programmed remotes many times (I have done a lot of products liability work and handled cases with complex machinery failures and deposed a lot of engineers so I am not unfamiliar with this type of equipment) and checked it and the receiver was getting the signal from the transmitter but the control board was not opening the gate.So I called Lisa, explained he had come but not told me he was there, and that the remote was not opening the gate. I also apologized for yelling at her the day before because it was not her fault. She said she would tell him. After that call I remembered there is a reset button on the Patriot control board so I went out and pushed it and that caused the remote to work so I called Lisa and said it was working. The new battery is smaller than the one he had originally put in and retails for about $95. The motion sensor still does not work, I have done jumping jacks in front of of it to know avail. I am not bothering to call again about that because Kealan would probably get really mad again. He does NOT like his competence put into question. You decide if $249 is a fair markup on a $95 battery.

We are very happy with the service we received from Alpha Gate & Door. We had a 20-year old gate that stopped working. Upon our first call, they were quick to respond, provide an estimate & schedule the work. The tech was very thorough and at the end explained all of the updates. I know that if I ever need anything else, I will call them.

I highly recommend Alpha Gate & Door Company! The entire process was incredibly quick and professional! I spoke with Lisa (she’s amazing and extremely knowledgeable) on Tuesday and she came out Wednesday with a recommendation to replace the gate opener that was faulty and couldn’t handle the weight of my gate. I received the reasonable quote the same day and their technician, Keelan, was at my house on Friday of the SAME WEEK to install. Keelan was just as courteous and professional as Lisa and did an amazing job! The install was perfect and pristine! I’ve tried working with other companies and honestly they are hands down the best! If there were 10 stars available, I would give them 10!
Thank you Alpha team!

I highly recommend Alpha Gate & Door Co.for your gate repair or installation needs. We were in need of a replacement system for or driveway gate. Lisa immediately understood my situation and had a perfect recommendation for a replacement. She emailed me a detailed proposal and followed up with a visit to our site. In a timely manner the technician, Kealin and his assistant George, professionally installed a complete Patriot 1 system that looks great and works perfectly. I am very pleased with all aspects of their service.

Alpha Gate & Door recently replaced our 3-gate system thats used by over 250 residents and visitors on a daily basis.

Terry was excellent in guiding us from the first visit to the final inspection, including his experiences on what to expect and where any likely issues would occur. With a large property, that was critical to avoiding problems that could pop up.

The crews, clean up and invoicing were all done professionally.

We would strongly recommend Alpha Gate & Door for your gate access needs.

Called on a Saturday morning around 0800 and left a message about issue I was having. I received a call back a few minutes later and was ask to send some pictures of the gate. Once I sent over the pictures, I got another call around 1200, asking if they could come by today as a crew was finished early and could swing by to fix. The gate was fixed by 3:00 same day. Thanks for the quick response and repair. I wasn't expecting that on a Saturday morning. So far so good.
