Fence with Gates: How to Balance Privacy, Access, and Curb Appeal

How to Choose the Perfect Fence and Gate Combo for Your Property

Trying to keep nosy neighbors out while still letting your guests drive through? Or maybe you want a modern, sleek fence that doesn’t scream “I just moved in”? BarrierBoss® has you covered. With our full line of metal gate kits and fence panels, you can finally have privacy, easy access, and a backyard that looks like it belongs in a magazine—all without losing your mind during installation.

Why Gates Matter More Than You Think

Sure, a fence keeps people out, but your gate is the first thing visitors see. Our Full Metal Gate Kits and ribbed or corrugated options give your property a strong, stylish entrance that lasts. Built from high-quality steel and framed with either Western Red Cedar or KDBT lumber, these gates are low-maintenance and high-impact. And no, they won’t sag, warp, or complain under pressure.

FireSmart Forever Fence™: Privacy That Can Take a Hit

If privacy is your goal, The FireSmart Forever Fence™ panels are the answer. Hurricane-tested, fireproof, and built from 2mm galvanized steel, these panels laugh in the face of bad weather. They are easy to install with full steel posts and channels, and their modular design allows you to mix and match infill panels up to 1-inch thick—so if you want a custom look, go wild...Better yet? Matching fence gates. 

Sizes That Work for Any Property

From 4' high x 4' wide pedestrian gates to 8' high x 12' wide vehicle entrances, BarrierBoss® has you covered. Panels and gates come in multiple sizes, and we even offer custom solutions.

DIY-Friendly Kits That Actually Make Sense

Each kit comes with pre-cut metal panels, framing lumber, hardware, and step-by-step instructions. No contractor? No problem. You can install a professional-looking fence or gate over a weekend with just a drill, some muscle, and maybe a coffee. Bonus: the results will impress friends, family, and even your neighbor’s cat.
