Wrought iron entry gates in Houston

Iron work

Custom wrought iron driveway and walkway gates for Houston-area homes, sized to your opening, in a style that matches the rest of the house. The gate is the first piece of iron anyone sees, so we build it to set the tone.

The first thing people see

Before anyone sees your front door, they see the gate. It marks where the street ends and your home begins, and it tells people what kind of house waits at the end of the drive.

We build gates in the same iron as our doors. That means the gate, the front door and the lanterns can share one scroll pattern, from the street to the front hall.

Decide how it opens

How a gate opens decides the space it needs. Look at the drive and the yard before you pick a style.

  • Swing gates

    The leaves swing open on hinges, in toward the house or out to the street. They need clear room for the swing, and a drive that slopes up toward the house can get in the way.

  • Slide gates

    One panel rolls to the side along the fence line. It needs open room beside the drive as wide as the gate.

  • Gate openers

    An opener lets you open the gate from the car. We fit LiftMaster openers.

  • Walk-through

    Many homes add a small walkway gate beside the driveway gate, so people on foot do not need the big one.

Measure the opening

A gate is built to one opening, so good numbers matter. Send us these and we can draw it.

  • The width between the posts or columns
  • The height you want the gate to be
  • Which way it should open, and what it has to clear
  • How much the drive slopes, if it slopes

Measure twice, and the gate swings right the first time.

Check the rules first

Many neighborhoods have an HOA or a covenant review that approves gates and fences, and many cities need a permit. Ask before you order. Our town pages list the local rules we know about, from The Woodlands' covenant review to the small cities around Austin.
