During a site visit, we’ll walk the perimeter with you, listening carefully to your goals. Do you need a gate for privacy, security, pets, or aesthetics? What material and style fits the look and feel you want to achieve? How much access is needed from the street, driveway, or backyard?

We’re happy to address any questions or concerns you may have as we collaborate to create the ideal gate solution.

Quality Materials for Longevity

At Real Fencing, we source only the most durable and resilient materials for all our custom gates. We want your new gate to stand the test of time while retaining its functionality and aesthetic appeal.

Our extensive experience in the fencing industry equips us with in-depth knowledge about the ideal materials for your unique needs. We use high-grade aluminum, steel, iron, timber, PVC and more to construct gates tailored to your specifications.

Aluminum

Aluminum is a fantastic choice for fence gates due to its lightweight strength and resistance to corrosion. It requires very little maintenance while providing security and visual interest. We offer aluminum gates in various colors and designs to complement your property.

Wrought Iron

For old-world charm and elegance, wrought iron gates are unparalleled. This material blends strength with timeless beauty. Our expert blacksmiths shape and join iron rods through traditional techniques to build stunning gates. Wrought iron develops a distinct patina over time but does not rust.

Western Red Cedar

Wood brings warmth and natural texture to any setting. We hand-select western red cedar, valued for its density, stability, and weather resistance. This premium timber allows us to construct sturdy wooden gates that endure for decades. The rich grain and hue of cedar gates add organic flair.

By choosing the optimal materials, we ensure your new gates remain solid, functional and gorgeous for many years ahead. Our team has the knowledge to match you with the perfect materials to realize your vision.

Precision Installation

Our professional installation team takes great care to ensure every aspect of your new fence gate is constructed and installed to perfection. We understand that proper gate installation directly impacts functionality and longevity.

With this in mind, our fence builders pay close attention to critical details such as:

• Proper gate alignment. A misaligned gate can lead to rubbing, chipping, and other issues over time that undermine durability. Our team always double checks that the gate frame is perfectly plumb and level.

• Robust gate hardware. We only use heavy-duty hardware designed to withstand years of use. Hinges, latches, and other components are secured firmly in place.

• Gate swing clearance. Adequate clearance must exist for the gate to open and close freely without obstruction. Our installers measure this clearance precisely.

• Gate closure. The latch and strike plate are aligned properly so the gate firmly seals when closed.

• Gate framing. The gate frame itself receives special attention to ensure structural integrity for safety and security.

Every aspect of the gate installation process reflects our commitment to impeccable craftsmanship and flawless functionality. You can rest assured your new gate will align perfectly while operating smoothly for years to come.

Safety Features

Installing a professionally built gate not only provides a pleasing appearance but also delivers vital safety and security for your property. Our fence gates are constructed with safety as a top priority.

• All our gates are fitted with secure locking mechanisms to prevent unauthorized entry. We use high-quality locks, latches, and hardware that provide the utmost dependability.

• For pool gates, we comply with all codes and regulations to ensure child safety. Our pool gate locks require a key for entry, providing an added layer of protection.

• We also install self-closing hinges on gates leading to a pool area. These special hinges automatically swing the gate closed after use, preventing the gate from being left open accidentally.

• Safety gate hinges are available as an option for high-traffic gate areas. Also called spring hinges, these close slowly and prevent the gate from slamming shut unexpectedly.

• For driveway gates, we recommend looped gate ends to eliminate hazardous sharp points. This safety addition prevents injuries from occurring.

• Reflectors or lighting can also be added to gates for increased visibility at night. This enhances safety in low-light conditions.

By focusing on critical safety features in our fence gate installations, we help keep your property secure while also prioritizing injury prevention. Our gate builders are always happy to discuss safety options to meet your unique needs.

Aesthetic Appeal

The ideal fence gate should not only serve practical purposes but also elevate the aesthetic appeal of your property. Our fences are designed to seamlessly complement your home’s architecture and landscaping for a cohesive look.

We offer custom gates crafted from high-quality materials like wrought iron, aluminum, steel, vinyl, and wood. With diverse customization options, we can match any architectural style – from traditional wrought iron gates for old world charm to modern aluminum gates for contemporary flair. The material, color, finish, and design details of your gate can align with your home for harmonious curb appeal.

Our fence gate installers have a keen eye for aesthetics. We’ll provide recommendations to find the perfect gate style for your home’s exterior.

Privacy

Fence gates allow you to control access to your property, providing privacy and seclusion from the outside world. Our custom gates can be designed for various levels of privacy depending on your needs.

For maximum privacy, we recommend our solid wood gates made from durable hardwoods like cedar. The solid construction blocks views and noise from the street or neighbors. Wood can also be stained or painted to complement your home.

Another very private option is our vinyl privacy gates. These are constructed from PVC vinyl panels that come in various colors and completely obstruct visibility. Vinyl is also a low-maintenance material that holds up well to weather.

Wrought iron and aluminum provide a more decorative look while still maintaining privacy. The metals can be powder coated in different colors and the spacing of pickets can be customized to your desired level of visibility. These elegant gates convey a sense of prestige.

No matter which material you select, we’ll ensure the gate offers the seclusion you want. The hardware allows you to keep it locked, with gate hinges and latches designed for optimal privacy. Contact us today to discuss gates that can turn your home into a peaceful sanctuary.

Managing Property Access with Custom Gates

Controlling access to your property is a key benefit of installing high-quality fencing with custom gates. Our team has extensive experience designing and building gates intended to manage access.

We offer a range of solutions to control access:

• Coded Entry Gates: For an added layer of security, we can install keypad and touchpad entry systems on your gates. These allow you to provide codes to select individuals, like family members, so they can easily enter your property. The codes can be updated anytime you need to revoke access.

• Intercom Entry Gates: Intercom systems enable you to screen visitors before providing gate access. Visitors press a button on an external intercom panel that connects to a two-way speaker system. From inside your home, you can verbally communicate with visitors and buzz them in by activating the gate release.

• Card Reader Gates: Similar to coded entry, we also install card readers on gates for keyless access. Authorized individuals are provided key cards that unlock the gates when swiped. If a card is lost or you need to block access, the card can be deactivated.

• Remote-Controlled Gates: For ultimate convenience, we build remote-controlled gates that open at the click of a button. Remotes allow you to open/close your gates while inside your vehicle. They can also be programmed to work in conjunction with other access systems.

Contact our team today to discuss the ideal access control solution for your property and lifestyle. We’re happy to provide recommendations and pricing for automating your gates.

Automated Gates

For the ultimate in convenience and security, consider installing an automated gate system. Our experienced technicians handle every aspect of the automated gate installation, from selecting top-tier automatic gate openers to programming and integrating keypad and remote control access.

We offer a full range of automated gate systems to match your needs:

• Slide gate openers – Allow a sliding gate to smoothly glide open when activated. We recommend slide gate openers for long gate openings up to 50 feet.

• Swing gate openers – Enable you to automate the opening and closing of single leaf or dual swing gates. Choose from a variety of power and speed options.

• Barrier gate openers – Designed for automating traffic control arms or gates up to 30 feet long. Provide reliable access management for parking areas.

• Overhead door openers – Used with rolling or vertical lift gates to control overhead access points up to 14 feet high.

• Solar gate openers – Harness solar energy to automate your gate and reduce reliance on AC power. Ideal for remote locations.

For added security, we integrate safety features like photo beams and auto-reverse technology to prevent injury or property damage. We also handle keypad programming, wireless remotes, and seamless integration with smart home systems.

Maintain Peak Performance of Your Gate

Regular maintenance is crucial for keeping your gate functioning properly for years to come. At Real Fencing, we’re happy to provide maintenance services to keep your gate operating smoothly.

• Check all nuts, bolts, hinges, and latches periodically to make sure nothing is loose. Tighten hardware as needed to prevent sagging. Lubricate moving metal parts with a silicone spray lube to prevent squeaking and grinding.

• Inspect the gate for any signs of rust or corrosion. Sand and touch up with paint if needed. For wood gates, apply a fresh coat of stain or sealant periodically.

• Examine posts and crossbeams for any rot, cracks, or insect damage. Replace compromised wood posts right away. Fill small cracks in wood with an appropriate sealant.

• Look for any damage, splits, or splintering in the gate itself. Sand and seal any minor surface issues. If there are major cracks or holes, the gate may need replacement.

• Test the gate to make sure it opens and closes smoothly without catching or dragging. Adjust hinges if needed. Automated gates should be tested regularly.

• For roller gates, lubricate wheel bearings per manufacturer instructions. Check track for debris; clean out leaves, dirt, and other gunk.

• Clear any brush, vines, or vegetation that may obstruct gate motion. Prune back encroaching tree branches.

• Check perimeter fencing for any issues that may impact the gate. Look for loose, broken or missing planks or wire.

• Inspect the latch, lock, and associated hardware. Oil lock internals and tighten any loose screws. Replace damaged or faulty latch components.

Regular gate maintenance from our professional team ensures your gate continues functioning properly for safety and access control. Contact us today to schedule annual service.
