I have this border script but for some reason once I reach the desired level the border doesn’t open until I rejoin. Does anyone know why?

You’re only checking the value once (when the player joins).
You’ll want to put this in a loop instead, so it checks every few seconds:

while task.wait(3) do
    local leaderstats = player:FindFirstChild("leaderstats")
    if leaderstats then  -- Only check level if leaderstats exists
        if level.Value >= 5 then
            ...
        end
        if level.Value >= 10 then
            ...
        end
        if level.Value >= 20 then
            ...
        end
    end
end

Assuming the local script is in starter player scripts you could do something like this:

local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local ls = player:WaitForChild("leaderstats")

local gate1 = workspace.borders:WaitForChild("border1.2")
local gate2 = workspace.borders:WaitForChild("border2.3")
local gate3 = workspace.borders:WaitForChild("border3.4")

local gateLevels = {
	[5] = gate1,
	[10] = gate2,
	[20] = gate3
}

for level, gate in pairs(gateLevels) do
	if ls.Level.Value >= level then
		gate.CanCollide = false
		gate.Transparency = 1
	end
end

ls.Level:GetPropertyChangedSignal("Value"):Connect(function()
	local unlocked = gateLevels[ls.Level.Value]
	if unlocked then
		unlocked.CanCollide = false
		unlocked.Transparency = 1
	end
end)

also if their level can increase by more than 1 at a time, you would need to replace

	local unlocked = gateLevels[ls.Level.Value]
	if unlocked then
		unlocked.CanCollide = false
		unlocked.Transparency = 1
	end

with

for level, gate in pairs(gateLevels) do
	if ls.Level.Value >= level then
		gate.CanCollide = false
		gate.Transparency = 1
	end
end

I hired a scripter for this game and I have very little knowledge about lua. theres no script named leaderstats in the explorer however when I join the game there are leaderstat values. how did he set up the leaderstats do you think?

you could use ctrl+shift+f and search for “leaderstats”, and find what script is setting it up
