Excellent service from start to finish! The team was professional, on time, and did an amazing job with my door. The quality of the work is outstanding, and everything was installed perfectly. They also cleaned up after the job, which I really appreciated. Highly recommend -- definitely a 5-star experience! read more

THANK YOU so much for being such a wonderful businessman! (We seldom meet honest people like you who really treats customer like family!). We appreciate how he took time to assess our existing gate. Very thorough and gives an honest opinion! And even very considerate on how we can save money without hurting the value of his work. He is very easy to talk to and really pays attention to his client, near or far. Highly will recommend him! read more

Very communicative and knowledgeable. You can tell they're familiar with their products and stood through the duration of programming. Pricing was fair and the production time quick. The gate is perfect. Requested replacement of the original new build gate due to security concerns read more

Ray with Socal Gates was a pleasure to work with. We asked him for some very specific custom gates for our patio and they turned out beautifully. He was willing to work with us to provide a design that that was unique amongst anything else that we had seen on the market. We are very pleased with our new gates and plan to call him again without even shopping around when we eventually replace the other gate on our property. read more

Ray is a nice guy and I'm sure his gates are probably okay, but his business practices should be better. Gave me a quote over text after I sent him pictures. Shows up and tells me "oh it's going to be way more" , well maybe don't give an estimate with just pictures without measuring.. my original estimate went up an extra 3k. Tried to tell me the price was for two doors not three, well I have the texts. Gave him 2 starts cause he does reply but don't get an estimate via text and maybe you will have better luck. read more

Excellent service. Easy to communicate with and the installation went flawlessly My gate is beautiful. Thanks .

About two years after my gate was first installed, the closer bracket stopped working correctly. Ray returned and replaced the bracket at no charge! He also noticed the hamper was damaged, and within a few days, he removed, rewelded, and repainted that part of the gate. I was beyond impressed with the prompt service and Ray's willingness to follow up even after a year. Customer service is always appreciated, and Socal Gates certainly provided it! read more

Good service. Reasonable prices. Very helpful & happy with results. Responded right away and explain options. Would highly recommend. read more

My company used Socal Gates OC to install a motorized gate on the back of our property a few months ago. Installation was quick and easy! Fast forward a few months, we had an unfortunate incident of a vendor hitting the sensor and severely bending it out of place. I called Ray to have him come out and fix it. He could have easily done that and charged us money for his assistance, but instead he text me instructions on how to fix it. I wasn't able to, so I called him and he talked me through everything I needed to do to get it realigned and working again. I love that he is so easy to work with, super friendly, and honest. If you need a gate installed, I highly recommend this company! read more

New gate install, went with the powder coated steel frame with black composite boards and a smart lock. Fantastic service, very communicative, installation was quick and painless and came out looking great!

This was very much appreciated. Price was one of the lowest around but somehow still managed to end up with a fantastic product. read more

We had vinyl gates in our RV parking that just got blown right off their hinges by the Santa Ana winds that wiped out Altadena and Palisades. I knew I definitely needed something more sturdy for the future. I called So Cal Gates and two other vendors for bids. Manny came out and brought sample materials that he uses so I can make a more informed choice for a set of gates that would hold up to the wind. I was impressed with the quality of the materials used. I opted for having the gates Zinc sprayed and powder coated so I would not have to be out there painting every couple of years. This wasn't my cheapest bid but his reviews here on Yelp and being able to feel the materials were a huge factor moving me forward to choosing So Cal Gates to do this job. He also has other features like self closing, lock box for your convenience and other options that really didn't fit what I was trying to accomplish. It takes about two to three weeks when leaving a deposit for your gates to be made and for him to contact you for an installation date and time. They arrived in about two and a half weeks, on time, and finished the installation in a couple of hours. My walls and pilasters were not exactly made to line up by the builder so Manny had to put in the extra effort to get the gates lined up correctly. The gates came out very nice and will serve their purpose. I paid about $6000 for the two gates that it took to cover my RV parking, the other bids I got were close to the same with little difference in price but the Yelp reviews and seeing the materials to be used left the stress out of using a contractor for the first time hoping you won't get ripped off. He made a link to his Youtube channel that I'll try to post to the end of this if you chose to check it out. https://youtube.com/shorts/f-2rYyEsung?si=0oT_Qjyh6W8a9gMg read more

Replaced a side gate, they were responsive and our new gate is beautiful. Install was quick as well. Thank you!

We love our new composite gates from Socal Gates! They are very stylish and work great. Ray was super knowledable and helpful in providing us with details for our design choices. The installation was quick, professional, and we couldn't be happier with the finished results! read more

I'm really happy with my experience with Ray at SoCal Gates! When I first inquired, he was very helpful with all of the design and function options, sent lots of photos of previous jobs to help figure out what I liked best, and was super responsive! He never pushed anything and even helped me find a more cost effective option. When they took the measurements of the gates, he said it would take 3-4 weeks but it was more like 1.5-2 weeks. Install was easy, clean and quick! I absolutely love the work done by SoCal Gates. I would recommend to everyone I know. read more

It was a Friday night and we found ourselves trapped behind our automatic security gate. After trouble shooting what we could, we ended up calling just about every business we could on Yelp to get some support and leaving messages everywhere. Within just a few minutes SoCal gates texted us back and started to walk us through fixing our gate opener- this was even before we paid anything. They simply wanted to help. It got dark but they were able to help us get the gate open so that we weren't trapped. It was amazing. Then over the weekend they helped to troubleshoot how to fix it...again...this was even before we paid anything. They ended up coming out that very Monday to diagnose the problem and fix it. Instead of trying to sell us a new system or upselling anything, they just fixed and adjusted our old one- charged close to nothing to do it. What a company! read more

It's almost been a year since we had our gates put in, which we love. After using the gate so often, the post started to wiggle because we had not bolted it to our vinyl siding. The day I called, Ray was out to fix the problem! That post is very solid now! Thank you, Ray, for your great work ethic! read more

I really can't recommend Ray and So Cal Gates enough. The quality and customer service are above all else. I got two front gates and he was very helpful in selecting the best value and design for what I was looking for. I recently needed them adjusted and turn around time was less than 24 hours. Extremely responsive and reliable. 10/10! read more

Socal Gates replaced my old gate keypad, with new transmitter and receiver, which worked fine. Ray is very knowledgeable and has had a lot of experience with gates. He will also help customers over the phone without making a service call, when possible. The work was prompt and neat. Charges were reasonable. Highly recommended. And also, Socal Gates is a local company that is real, not just a sales website or a phone number. read more

Ray was quick to respond my request and his work to replace my rotten wood gate with aluminum composite was beautifully done in a timely manner at a reasonable price. The rock post I have was detached from the wall and slanted which caused the old gate off the alignment. Ray is the only one out of four contractors I called who offered an easy solution within my budget. I've referred him to my neighbor and will continue to refer him should there be a need. read more

Very happy with our gate that was installed and built by Ray! He was communicative throughout the process and responded in a timely manner to any questions I had. He installed our new gate about 3 weeks after he came out and measured everything. Removal/installation took about 1.5 hours to complete. There was some more legwork we had to do on our end (vs going with a larger company) as far as installing a concrete post, minor patch up work after the old gate was removed, etc. but overall it was worth it with the money we saved. read more
