Yes, I know, repeating a keyword right from the start seems strange.
But if you’re here, it’s probably because you’re looking for someone for a gate installation in Val-de-Marne (94) or because, like me a few months ago, you’re wondering:
👉 “Is it really worth it?”
And while we’re at it, I’m also going to talk about Window Installation Saint-Maur , because obviously, when you start work… you often end up reviewing everything.😅

1️⃣Why install a gate in 94 ?
The truth?
Because my old gate had more personality than a rebellious teenager :
-
It creaked
-
He was stuck
-
He closed half the time
-
And sometimes it would open by itself (thanks to the wind 😑).
One evening, I had THE last straw:
A delivery man pushed the gate open, he almost sent me a voicemail saying something like, « Hello madam, your gate just fell on me, I’m fine but he’s not. »
That’s where I started my Google searches:
Gate installation 94 – aluminum gate – motorized gate – installer Saint-Maur … I was becoming an expert!
2️⃣My old setup: 🫣a complete disaster
You know that moment when you invite friends over and you tell them:
➡️ « Push a little. Yes, yes, harder. It’ll come… No, leave it, I’m coming. »
That’s it.
That was my daily life. Not very glorious.
And let’s be honest:
A gate isn’t just about aesthetics. It’s about security , comfort , and even property value .
3️⃣How I chose my model for the 94 gate installation
I compared several options:
| Portal type | Advantage | Inconvenience |
|---|---|---|
| PVC | Cheap | Not very sturdy |
| Drink | Super cute | Mandatory maintenance |
| Wrought iron | Amazing style | Price + rust |
| Aluminium (my choice) | Lightweight, sturdy, modern | Sometimes more expensive |
Why aluminum?
Because I wanted a motorized gate (yes ma’am, I like comfort 😌).
And most importantly:
I don’t want to repaint every two summers.
4️⃣And during the gate installation… I fell in love with a window installation in Saint-Maur. 🪟
Are you familiar with this trap?
You start something… and everything else seems old🤦♀️
So yes, I jumped in.
👉 New window installation in Saint-Maur: double glazing, sound insulation… and above all, no more drafts.
In my case, the company offered me a comprehensive quote, which saved me around €900 .
(I highly recommend requesting a group quote.)
5️⃣ 💰The actual price: Gate installation 94 + Window installation Saint-Maur
⚠️Spoiler alert: it depends on many things.
But to give you a real idea (and not a marketing price):
-
Motorized aluminum gate (gate installation 94) → between €2,500 and €6,000
-
Window installation in Saint-Maur (per window) → €450 to €1,200
Tip: Some websites like France Rénov’ provide information on available subsidies 👉 (link: government, reliable)
6️⃣Assistance & guarantees (the part I almost ignored… mistake ❗)
What I learned:
-
There is financial assistance available for insulation , including for window installation in Saint-Maur.
-
Some companies in the 94th district offer a 10-year guarantee
-
The RGE label is essential
🛑If the company does not have this label → RUN AWAY.
7️⃣What I would do differently
-
I would compare more customer reviews
-
I would ask for before/after photos
-
I would negotiate… because we can. Always😏
8️⃣Where can I find a good installer?
Personally, I contacted 3 companies in Val-de-Marne.
The best one was the one that:
✔responded clearly,
✔offered a visit and free quote,
✔and didn’t put any pressure on me.
(If you’d like, I can share the list in a future article.)
💭Conclusion
Today, when I press the remote control and my gate opens without roaring like an old T-Rex , I almost have tears in my eyes.
Having a gate installed in the 94 area code and a window installed in Saint-Maur …
👉it costs me less than moving,
👉it completely changes the security
👉, and it brings incredible comfort.
If you’re hesitating, at least get a free quote .
It doesn’t cost anything… except maybe the urge to renovate everything afterwards.😅✨
