Architectural Driveway Gates That Last 30+ Years in Arizona Heat.
Your Gate Is the First Impression of Your Home
A custom iron gate isn't just security. It's architecture. It's curb appeal. It's the statement piece that defines your property before visitors even reach your front door.
Design Session
We bring design books and tablets to your property. Match your home's style: Spanish Colonial, Modern, Tuscan, Contemporary.
Engineering Drawings
We provide CAD drawings showing exact dimensions, scrollwork details, and color samples before fabrication begins.

Why Our Powder Coating Outlasts Standard Paint
Arizona's UV Index 11+ sun destroys standard automotive paint in 3-5 years. You've seen it: faded gates, peeling paint, rust bubbles forming underneath.
We don't paint. We powder coat using a high-temperature baking process that chemically bonds protective coating to the steel at 400°F.
Sandblast to Bare Metal
We remove all mill scale, rust, and contaminants using 80-grit aluminum oxide media. This ensures perfect adhesion.
Zinc-Rich Primer Coat
We apply zinc-rich primer (the same used on Navy ships). If the topcoat gets chipped, zinc prevents rust from spreading.
Electrostatic Powder Application
We spray electrostatically charged powder particles that wrap around every surface. Coverage is 5x thicker than liquid paint.
400°F Bake Cycle
The gate bakes in a curing oven at 400°F for 20 minutes. Heat causes the powder to melt, flow, and chemically crosslink into a rock-hard finish.
The Result
- UV Resistant: Won't fade or chalk even at UV Index 11+
- Impact Resistant: Won't chip from flying rocks or hail
- Heat Resistant: Steel surfaces reach 150°F+ in summer - powder coat doesn't soften
- Warranty: 10-year guarantee against rust-through, fading, and peeling
Engineering for Arizona Wind & Heavy Gates
A 16-foot iron gate weighs 400-600 lbs. In 40+ mph monsoon winds, improper engineering causes sagging, hinge failure, and motor burnout.
Gate Structure
- •Frame: 2" x 2" x 1/4" steel tubing (not thin-wall conduit)
- •Infill: 1" square or 5/8" round bar (14-gauge or heavier)
- •Diagonal Bracing: Prevents racking and sagging over time
- •Wind Load Rating: Engineered for 90 mph wind gusts
Post & Hinge System
- •Posts: 6" x 6" steel posts set 42" deep in concrete
- •Hinges: Heavy-duty ball-bearing hinges rated for 800+ lbs per gate leaf
- •Post Spacing: Maximum 8-foot gate leaf width (16 ft total for dual swing)
- •Automation: Commercial-grade operators rated for gate weight
