Which areas near Strabane do you cover?
We can arrange work in Strabane and in nearby Derry (13 miles), Omagh (17 miles) and Limavady (26 miles). Dates depend on installer availability.
Is a gate better than a stronger door?
They do different jobs. A certified door resists attack on its own; a gate adds a second barrier. Many people choose both.

Yes. Front door gates normally lock with a key from outside and a thumb-turn or key from inside.
Will I still get post?
We can leave a letterbox clearance in the gate or suggest a wall-mounted post box.
