The white picket fences surrounding numerous Bullhead City homes are getting a new twist. A gated fence increases privacy along with security. A remote controlled gate can be installed at the end of a driveway or added onto an existing wall or fence. A computer program, hand-held device, or even a BlackBerry or Treo will be able to activate the gate.
These models are not cheap. A professional, more intricate system can run anywhere from $18,000 to $130,000, while a Do-it-yourself model can be purchased for around $1,2000. These gates are an indication of the increase of fear and apprehension in America, according to some. Several others believe that they are simply the best form of privacy. Either way, business is booming, stated those marketing fences.
