Automatic Driveway Gates,Built to Match the Fence, Not Bolted On

Drive gates and walk gates, from a simple cedar gate to an arched iron gate with an operator.

Custom, Not Off a Shelf

The one part that moves.So it's the one we build to last.

Everything else along your fence line just stands there. Your gate swings, latches, and gets pulled on several times a day, which is why it earns its own design instead of getting assembled to match. We build custom, so it suits the fence and the property rather than looking like it came off a shelf.

The Part That Fails First, If It's Built Wrong

A gate getsused every day, and it's built for that

Gates fail before the rest of a fence does, because a gate is the only part with moving parts and it gets used every single day. Hardware sized for your gate, not a generic size pulled off a shelf, is what keeps it from being the thing that fails first on your property.

What actually goes into it:

  • Built custom, matched to your fence and your property. Not a stock gate bolted onto whatever fence happens to be there.
  • Operators sized for how many times your gate actually opens. A gate used a dozen times a day needs different hardware than one used once.
  • Hinges and posts sized for the gate itself, not the fence around it. That's where a gate actually fails when it's built wrong.
  • Posts set for the ground that's actually on your property, and the electrical side treated as seriously as the ironwork. Heavy clay moves and turns a leaning gate post into a dragging gate, and out here a surge finds an operator on an open post long before anything else does.

Years From Now

A gate thatstill swings true

A gate that swings true, latches without you lifting it, and hasn't dropped. That's the same test that tells you a fence was built right, and it's the clearest test there is for a gate specifically, because a gate either does that or it doesn't. What we will not tell you is that an automatic gate is something you never think about again: it's a machine that moves every day and carries live wiring, so it wants looking at now and then, and safety sensors in particular can drift out of alignment without giving you any sign they have. More of our gate work is in the project gallery. A gate that's dropped, drags, or won't latch the way it used to is usually a fix, not a full replacement.

What Gets People Calling

A gate gets usedmore than the rest of the fence.

A few of the reasons people call us about a driveway gate.

  • It doesn't open on the first try anymore.
  • It drags across the gravel every time now.
  • The remote works about half the time.
  • We're finally putting in the automatic gate we've talked about for years.

Call Now

Yes, from a simple cedar gate to an arched iron gate with an operator. It gets built to match your fence and your property, not chosen off a shelf.

Automatic operators, keypads, remotes, and intercom entry, on the drive gate at your house or the one at your business.

Longer when the hardware is actually sized for your gate, and longer when the electrical side is taken seriously. An operator sits on a metal post out in the open, which is exactly where a lightning surge finds it, and a wet enclosure will take a control board out just as surely. Surge protection and a properly sealed, grounded install are not extras here, they are the difference between a board that lasts and one that does not.

Yes. Access-controlled gates with operators, keypads, and card or code entry, sized for a gate that opens all day rather than a few times an evening.

Wide enough for whatever actually drives through it, including the trailer or the truck you only pull in twice a year. That's why it gets measured on your property rather than guessed at.
