According to a 2021 study by the International Casual Furnishings Association, nearly 90% of Americans say that having an outdoor space to enjoy as part of their home is more important than ever. In fact, demand for outdoor living spaces has been on the rise for years, due largely to pandemic conditions and the stay-at-home movement. Often, these outdoor living spaces include privacy fences, which provide both home and business owners with protection, privacy, safety, and even noise cancelation.

Having a fence without a gate is sort of like having a fast car with no doors. It looks great, but without the functionality of a door, it's a little difficult to enjoy. As a fencing contractor in the Dallas Metro area, you know that your job may start with a custom fence, and then evolve into a project that includes a gate and other features. If you're looking for a quality fence kit with gate, we've got you covered.
Our gate kits come with everything you need to build a fence gate that matches the style of your customer's property. The gate frame itself is made of modern-looking black metal and features a channel that can accommodate nearly any type of custom fence panels in Fort Worth, TX. We're talking infill materials like:
Whether you prefer a metal & wood gate, a metal & bamboo gate, a metal & vinyl gate, or any other type of gate design, our gate kits will work perfectly for you.
You may wonder, "Why can't I just build an ordinary wooden gate?" Traditional gates are certainly still popular, but if your customer is looking for the perfect mix of style and longevity, it's hard to beat a metal gate fence kit from Perimtec. That's especially true in Metro Dallas, TX, where weather conditions and other factors make metal gate fencing a smart choice.
Ordinary gates are problematic because they are typically mounted to walls or fences made entirely of wood or wood with a flimsy metal frame. Unfortunately, these gates don't last long, and it is common to see them sagging or rotting within 5-7 years of installation. This means that you may need to replace or repair the gate several times over.
Perimtec gate systems are different. With our heavy-duty aluminum construction, along with durable components, you can build a gate that stands the test of time. The bottom line? Our metal gate frames create a better gate that lasts longer than traditional wooden or metal-framed gates.
Fence contractors use our gate kits for many different projects and applications because they have the ability to attach a new gate directly to walls or masonry fences.
Our gates are a perfect match for concrete block walls, block fences, stone walls, slump block, CMU, stucco, and stone. Working on a wooden fence but need a metal gate? Our metal gate frame kits are made so that you can easily install them onto the wooden fence with which you're working.
Perimtec Pro Tip: If you're looking to attach a metal gate to an existing wooden fence, we recommend using metal posts to mount the gate, which provides a much sturdier foundation.
Fencing company owners use our metal gate kits to create:
Our gate kits have a robust aluminum frame design, making them perfect for low-cost double driveway swing gate construction. You can power them with an automatic gate opener or leave them manually operated for easy opening-the choice is yours. You can also add a double fence gate to your privacy fence to provide convenient access for your boat, mower, trailer, pool pump, utility equipment, or other backyard items.

Building a fence for the first time is no easy task. In fact, one of the most common fence-building mistakes stems from a lack of experience. However, even experienced fencing contractors can make mistakes or misremember best practices learned over time. Fortunately, a privacy fence kit in Fort Worth, TX from Perimtec TX is easy to assemble, making the job enjoyable for both pros and DIY first-timers. Whether you're a first-time fencing homeowner or a seasoned contractor, keep these tips in mind.
When installing a fence, you've got to be consistent and make sure that your post holes are deep enough. Rushing through the installation process and making the post holes too shallow can weaken the fence. Typically, you'll need to dig holes between 30 inches and 36 inches deep, depending on the type of fence. If the holes aren't deep enough, the fence may start to lean or even fall over completely. That's why it's so important to take your time and dig your post holes to the appropriate depth.
Whether you encounter this issue or not largely depends on your yard or the area where you're building a fence. One of the most difficult parts of building a fence by yourself is to consider the minor changes in elevation while placing the posts. To keep the fence line straight, you must figure out the difference in rise and fall for each section of your yard
Installing a fence on your neighbor's property can be a costly and frustrating mistake. Your neighbor has the legal right to ask you to remove the fence if it's on their land. To avoid such issues, we recommend confirming your property line before you start the installation process. You should also consider leaving a 12-inch barrier just to be safe. The goal here is to build a beautiful, useful fence, not to create more expenses for yourself.
You should know that not every type of fence is allowed in the Metro Dallas region. Before installing a fence, be sure that you adhere to any height limitations and boundary requirements. Depending on your location, some places may permit fencing on a property line, while others may require an offset. In addition to verifying your local zoning laws, you should also check with your local Homeowner's Association (HOA) as they may have strict guidelines on the types of fences (and sometimes the colors) you can build. If you're building a pool fence, it's essential to ensure that your fence complies with local and/or state safety codes.
When installing a gate, measuring the area accurately and accounting for any hardware deductions is important. Also, make sure to install sturdy hinge posts from which to hang the gate. You should also check the ground below the gate to ensure it is level. If the ground isn't level, make sure the far end of the gate is positioned high enough off the ground to allow movement. To make your life easier, consider a gate frame kit from Perimtec, which comes with everything you need to build a stylish yet functional fence gate.
At Perimtec, we're passionate about reimagining the fencing industry in Dallas, TX.

States are racing to overhaul their laws for business entities due to frequent legal showdowns between mercurial founders and disgruntled shareholders. Texas made itself a more attractive legal home for business by enacting Senate Bill 29 and Senate Bill 2411. For Texas entities, these laws refine the standards for managerial liability through changes to the Texas Business Organizations Code (TBOC).
While these changes are intended primarily for public companies, they also benefit private companies, which may now choose to cloak managers with additional protections against breach of fiduciary duty claims (for example, breach of the duty of care or the duty of loyalty). Shareholders frequently reach for these weapons to challenge executive compensation, deals with “cozy” counterparties, or corporate strategy.
The changes include a statutory “business judgment rule” that protects corporate directors and officers (“Managerial Officials” in the statute) from mismanagement claims. For adopting private corporations, the rule establishes presumptions that Managerial Officials have carried out official conduct in good faith, on an informed basis, to further the corporation’s interests, and without violating the law or the corporation’s governing documents.
A suing shareholder must disprove one of these presumptions and also show particular facts illustrating the Managerial Official’s conduct involved fraud, intentional misconduct, a knowing violation of law, or acts outside the corporation’s official purpose. Regardless of adoption, the rule doesn’t displace common law protections that Managerial Officials enjoy today. Some businesses will opt to keep the existing Texas business judgment rule with its slightly less generous protections.
If adopted, the new rule also applies to Managerial Officials who transact with the corporation (for example, lease real estate to the corporation) or approve such transactions. The existing business judgment rule would not protect a Managerial Official who benefited from the transaction.
To help an interested transaction satisfy the TBOC’s requirements, a corporation may now also ask the local business court to confirm that the corporation’s approval committee candidates satisfy the TBOC’s standards. However, this accelerated proceeding creates a platform for contesting shareholders.
Effective Sept. 1, corporations may also insulate their officers from certain money damages. This option was previously only available for corporate directors.
LLCs and limited partnerships also received an optional statutory business judgment rule. Separately, the law makes it clear that these entities may fully waive the fiduciary duties themselves (eliminating the possibility of a claim predicated on those duties). This clears a murky interpretive issue in governance lawsuits.
The new laws also:
After determining the impact on incentives and corporate controls, companies may use these new tools to attract qualified managers and enable confident decision-making.

A Fort Worth firefighter remains hospitalized after he was injured when a garage collapsed during a two-alarm house fire in Fort Worth on Wednesday.
The department said firefighter Caleb Halvorson was unable to reach his radio to call a "mayday" and called out to his fellow firefighters while praying for help, "not knowing if anyone could hear him."
The weight of the debris required additional manpower and tools before his crew could free him.
Officials said that in less than two minutes, fellow firefighters pulled Halvorson from the burning debris. Halvorson was airlifted to Parkland Hospital in Dallas, where he remains in stable condition in the burn unit.
Fort Worth Fire said Halvorson suffered second and third-degree burns to his back, legs, hands, and face and will require skin grafting. He also has a severely dislocated knee, a possible shoulder tear, and other musculoskeletal injuries.
"Fellow firefighters present noted that his survival was nothing short of miraculous," the department said in a statement.
A second firefighter, Lt. Troy Gallagher, was injured while rescuing his colleague, Fort Worth Fire said.
"He was actively trying to help remove his crewmate from underneath all the debris so they could get him out and start working on him," said Craig Trojacek, spokesperson for Fort Worth Fire.
The department said Halvorson and his wife have been preparing to welcome their newborn baby home, who has been in the NICU since June.
Neighbors who live across the street caught on video the moments when the garage collapsed, trapping the firefighter underneath.
"It was like a whole, entirely panicked scene… After that, I just watched firetrucks pull up, one after the other," said Marlinese Hugh.
Officials say Wednesday's fire happened on the historic Southside of Fort Worth; it was spotted by crews who were on their way to the station just before 11 a.m.
"By the time we got outside, you could literally feel the heat from the fire already, because it was already so big, and firefighters were just pulling up just as we were coming outside," said Hugh.
Neighbors say the owner of the house has been gone for the last two months; during that time, they've noticed people going in and out.
As of now, the cause of the fire remains under investigation.

FORT WORTH, Texas - The Fort Worth Fire Department have identified the two firefighters injured when a garage collapsed during a fire on Wednesday.
The backstory:
Fire officials say the fire started just before 11 a.m. in the 200 block of Williams Street in the Historic Southside of Fort Worth.
Fort Worth Fire Department Engine 11 was returning to their station from the shop when they noticed heavy smoke coming from the home. As the Fire Alarm Office received multiple calls from neighbors about the fire and began to dispatch crews, Engine 11 arrived on scene.
Officials say the crew pulled a line and made their way to the structure. Before they could make entry, the garage roof collapsed, trapping a firefighter. That is when the first mayday was called.
What they're saying:
"The sound of a ‘mayday’ tone plays over all radio traffic and stops everyone in their tracks. The problem: one or more firefighters requires immediate assistance. The objective: stop everything and get your fellow brother or sister out of harm’s way. The goal is to repeatedly train for these situations but to never have to engage in one. Unfortunately, (Wednesday) was not an exercise," fire officials stated in a social media post.
According to Fort Worth Fire, within less than two minutes, fellow firefighters pulled Firefighter Caleb Halvorson from the burning debris. He was rushed to medics who were waiting and CareFlight was launched. He had multiple injuries, including burns. He was taken to Parkland Hospital. He is currently in the burn unit. He has been with the department for three years.
A firefighter who rescued Halvorson was taken by ambulance to the hospital after being injured during the rescue. He has been identified as Lieutenant Troy Gallagher, who has been with the department since 2001. He was treated at the hospital for his injuries and released.
A second alarm was called to help extinguish the fire, so there would be enough manpower at the scene to handle the mayday and the fire.
After an hour, the fire was under control. The incident lasted about three hours.
Officials say there were 42 fire apparatus on scene and close to 90 fire personnel.
The residents were not home at the time of the fire and there were no additional injuries. The cause of the fire is currently under investigation.
What they're saying:
"We want to extend our gratitude for the community’s outpouring of prayers and messages of comfort upon hearing of the injuries. We’re honored to serve the City of Fort Worth, and thank you for always supporting us. Please join us in continuing to pray for Firefighter Halvorson and Lieutenant Gallagher and their families during this difficult time," fire officials said.
