About Us
Leading Edge Gates & Controls, LLC was founded in 1993 by Rick and Lisa Burns as a way to provide a service to a select market by providing installation and service of automated gate systems. The typical company to offer this is usually found in a fence company, which is where Rick started out and learned the gate operating business.
After several years in the industry he felt he had more to offer customers by focusing solely on the automated gate industry. So the business was created specializing in the automated access systems and providing only top of the line products that will give our customers years and years of dependability and that offer generous manufacturers warranties. We have built the business on strong family values, we treat each and every one of our customers like we treat our own family. Since this is a family owned and operated business, this is very easy for us, WE LOVE OUR CUSTOMERS!!!!! We warranty our installations for one full year and provide preventative maintenance agreements to keep all of the hydraulic and mechanically driven operators working properly.
We service private residences, such as the Vice President of the United States home, military bases - Dover Air Force Base - Air National Guard - Army National Guard, as well as many state and county facilities along with manufacturing facilities. We even service many beach communities in the Lewes, Dewey, Bethany Beach, and Fenwick Island areas.
We are happy to provide references with contact names upon request. We value the service that we provide and make a commitment to each and every customer that you will be happy with your new investment for years to come!

Never showed up
Wesley was supposed to come to my house on 05 DEC 19. Never showed. When I called to inquiry why the no show I was told there was a scheduling mix up and we would have to schedule another day. So I sat home all day waiting for no reason. I was never told of the mix up so if I hadn't called I would still be waiting. To add insult to injury when initial appointment was booked there was an issue with my address and I was called back so they had a second chance to notice this scheduling issue and didn't and this proved they had a valid phone number so this no call no show is completely unwarranted. STAY AWAY at all costs!

My husband and I had Leading Edge Gates & Controls install an electric front gate and attached fence on our property and we couldn't be happier. The gate is a beautiful addition to our security. Wesley and his team were very professional. The installation was done promptly and Leading Edge has been a great help in making sure that the gate continues to work properly as it should. I would gladly recommend Leading Edge to anyone who is considering an electric security gate. Prompt, reliable and professional is how I would describe this team.

I had a gate recently installed that was not functioning properly and they were able to quickly diagnose the issue and fix it the same day. Leading Edge is top notch and I would do business again with them in the future.

Wes and Leading Edge Gates and Controls were extremely professional and knowledgeable. They gave me multiple options to complete my project. The work was completed exactly when they said it would be and they did a fantastic job. They gave me step by step instructions on how to operate my system and I could tell they were genuinely interested in making sure all my questions were answered. I'd recommend them to friends, family members, and anyone else that I come in contact with that needed work completed.
