“It was also shocking - the high cost of shipping and on a prior order, alternate shipping was thankfully priced out...”

The self closing gate hinge is a terrible product. Good in theory, but the force required to open it causes the hinge attached to the post to rotate out of alignment which prevents the gate from closing. No matter how tight I ratcheted down the post hinge, it would not hold for more than a few open/close cycles. I switched back to the basic hinge just so the gate can function.
Fast shipping! However, the site makes it difficult to find the correct product. The gate keypad is purchased is the incorrect gate keypad for the Bulldog Pedestrian gate. Now I'm stuck with a keypad that I can't use.

They have a really rude man in customer service. He kept arguing with me about a payment I made online that was already on my credit card charges. He refused to lessen the balance due. It all came out correctly but that man should not be talking to customers. He was also the one that send emails.
Hoover Fence Co, the Top Locking Fence Slats I ordered were great and as expected… I would have gave 5 Stars, but when I ordered the site had a box for special comments. I asked for and would have paid for… more of the Locking Strips that go into the Top Lock…and didn’t get them or any comments back from you.
Didnt like that as a first time customer that they have to speak with you on the phone just to confirm orders.....its paid for, so send it ya no.
Fast shipping after waiting longer than expected original delivery, so not really sure if thats good or bad.
The whole point is.....Im not/wasnt a first time customer.......i purchased my knocher from them-theyre ok quality, but wish they were better.
But as a repeat customer, I dont expect this type of BS especially since they never did before.......wish i had more hands, id give it 5 thumbs down
The concern I have was the lack of information on the width of the wheel bushing to determine if the gate wheel I was purchasing would fit the gate wheel attachment I was working with.
Besides this concerns, the wheel worked out.
I received the gate and post I ordered and am very impressed and happy with the products. I noticed it was not painted up inside the top part, but I guess that will not be too noticeable.
Shipping was well done, a 4'x 6' aluminum gate on a huge pallet, and the delivery company was excellent to work with and communicated well with me to be sure was there when it arrived.
I was not impressed with Hoover's communication with me both at the time of order and after it was ready for shipping.
I called to place the order initially and was told they had to check with the factory and I never heard back. I called some time (week or so) and then the next day had a firm order.
When the order was supposed to be ready, I sent an email trying to get a tracking number but was told the shipper would let me know.
I looked online to find my order and it was not in the system (too small?) I asked about it once on the phone and again in an email with no reply or concern.
I finally received a tracking number from Hoover and the name of the shipping company and it was great from that point on.
