Legal Question in Real Estate Law in California

If I remove an existing fence and replace it with a new fence that I pay for, do I have an obligation to pay to replace the neighbors gate or to pay for their existing gate to be reinstalled. The current fence and the proposed new fence are completely located on my property. I am replacing wood fencing with vinyl fencing so there is time and expense to have my neighbors gate reinstalled. The wood will not attach to the vinyl and the new post for the neighbors gate would be located on their property.

I think the key question here is why does the neighbor have a gate if it is your fence? Isn't it your gate? I'm wondering if there is an easement issue here.
