Swing gates are a type of gate that opens by swinging on hinges, allowing access to a property or area. They can be made from various materials, including wood, metal, or vinyl, and are commonly used in residential and commercial settings. Swing gates can be designed to match the style of a building or landscape, providing both functionality and aesthetic appeal. These gates typically come in single or double configurations, with double swing gates allowing for wider openings. They can be operated manually or automated with electric openers, enhancing convenience. Swing gates are often used in conjunction with fences to create secure perimeters around yards or driveways.
