Metal and ranch gates

We build metal swing gates for driveways, side yards and ranch entrances, single or double, and set them between steel posts or stone pillars. You can add a gate to the fence you already have or build it with a new one.

Between stone pillars or steel posts

A heavy gate needs posts that do not lean. Steel posts are the clean option; stone pillars give a ranch entrance its weight and look, like the ones in the photos on this page. We hang the gate so it swings level and closes where it should.

Matched to your fence

A gate looks best when it belongs to the fence: black metal with an iron fence, steel with a metal panel fence, a cedar face with a cedar fence. Bring a photo of your fence to the estimate, or we look at it on site.

Width and swing direction

A drive gate has to clear the widest vehicle that will use it, with room to spare for turning in. Trailers and farm equipment need more. Wide openings are often split into a double gate so each leaf is lighter and easier to open.

Gates usually swing into the property. If the ground rises on the inside, the gate needs extra clearance at the bottom or a different design; a sliding gate is another option there.
