Standard Fence Company Expands Gate Automation and Access Control

DENVER, CO – July 27, 2026 – PRESSADVANTAGE –

Standard Fence Company, a fourth-generation fence and gate contractor founded in Denver in 1937, has expanded its automated gate systems and access control services for commercial and residential properties across the Denver metropolitan area. The company is broadening this work from its Denver yard on East 64th Avenue in response to growing demand for managed access at homes, businesses, and industrial sites along the Front Range.

Founded by the Scavo family and now led by president Taylor Scavo, Standard Fence Company has operated for more than 87 years. The company is accredited by the Better Business Bureau with an A+ rating held since 2001 and is a member of the American Fence Association and its Colorado chapter. According to the company, it has completed more than 20,000 projects across the region over the course of its history, work that spans residential yards, commercial perimeters, and industrial sites.

“Access control has moved from a commercial need to something homeowners ask about regularly, and we wanted our automated gate work to reflect that shift,” said Taylor Scavo, president of Standard Fence Company. “Building and automating gates in house lets us stand behind the whole system, not just part of it.”

The expanded service covers automated gate operators for swing, slide, barrier, overhead, and vertical-lift gates, along with access control systems that include keypad entry, card readers, intercoms, and remote control. The company installs equipment from manufacturers such as LiftMaster, DoorKing, and Viking Access Systems. Each installation includes consultation and design, site assessment, safety-feature installation, permitting assistance, and operator maintenance, repair, and user training, so that a property owner receives a complete system rather than a set of parts assembled from separate vendors.

Standard Fence Company fabricates and installs gates for residential and commercial settings in materials that include steel, aluminum, wrought iron, wood, vinyl, chain link, and composite. Residential configurations range from swing and slide gates to cantilever, bi-fold, pedestrian, and decorative designs, while commercial and industrial sites use slide, cantilever, vertical pivot, barrier arm, rolling, and wire mesh gates matched to their security requirements. The company performs its metal fabrication in house rather than through outside shops, which it cites as the reason a single team remains accountable for the design, build, and automation of each gate.

Operating conditions along the Front Range factor into how automated gates are built and set. Expansive clay soils, freeze-thaw cycling, and strong downslope winds place stress on posts, hinges, and gate alignment, and equipment that is not set and adjusted for those conditions can bind or fall out of alignment over time. The company sets gate posts to account for regional frost depth and soil movement and services the operators it installs, which it describes as part of keeping automated entry reliable through seasonal change.

Gate work sits alongside the company’s core fencing business, which covers residential, commercial, and temporary fencing in materials ranging from wood and vinyl to ornamental iron and chain link, together with fence repair and maintenance such as component replacement, rust treatment, staining, and sealing. The company also fabricates custom iron railings, including interior, exterior, and security railings, and provides masonry services such as retaining walls and stone and brick work. These are offered as complements to its fencing and gate projects rather than as separate lines, allowing a property owner to coordinate related work through one contractor.

Standard Fence Company backs its installations with a one-year warranty on workmanship and materials. The company reports that interest in automated entry and access control has grown among Front Range property owners looking to manage access without adding staff, a trend it expects to continue as more residential communities adopt controlled-entry systems.

“The goal with the expanded gate division is the same standard the company was built on,” Scavo said. “Do the work in house, set it for our conditions, and be there to service it afterward.”
