Perpetua Iron represents 59 years of experience in metalcraft. We design, build and install decorative wrought iron and architectural components to custom specifications. We also repair and restore existing ironwork. Perpetua Iron has two veteran designers/fabricators on staff and may subcontract work out to one of a few trusted fabricators as our workload demands. We work with customers to develop the design, fabricate the work with an eye to detail, then carefully and sensitively install the work on site. Two of our owners are dedicated home renovators, so we are familiar with the demands that old railing and old homes present. Because of this background, we work well with do-it-yourselfers, rehabbers, renovators and home improvement professionals. We provide free design consultations and are prompt with bids. We know your time is valuable and will never take you or your business for granted. We specialize in custom-built ornamental ironwork, but are also skilled in installing prefabricated components, repairing rusted or damaged railing and gates, and matching existing metal design elements. Perpetua Iron is not a misspelling - we named the company after Perpetua, a woman who was martyred in the 3rd century for refusing to denounce her beliefs. We thought it was about time that this iron maiden had an iron business named after her.

Driveway Gates questions, answered by experts

Electric gates can be forced open if someone applies enough force to the edge furthest from the mounting bracket. You can reduce this risk by adding an electric lock to your gate opener. However, automatic gate openers generally help deter intruders, especially when paired with outdoor lighting and security cameras. Other home security tips include trimming trees surrounding the area for added visibility and installing motion sensors in your yard.

You can install manual gates yourself. However, professional installation is recommended for automated or large gates to ensure proper setup.

If you only use your gate as a pedestrian, walking through without a vehicle, you’re fine to stick with a single fence gate. If your fence opening needs to accommodate vehicles of any kind, from cars to trucks to 4-wheelers, then a double fence gate will suit the space much better and give you more freedom. 

While there’s no hard evidence to support this idea, driveway gates at least provide an additional obstacle that may deter crime. After all, a would-be burglar or trespasser would have to break into the gate and the property itself. The extra work could encourage them to move onto a house without a driveway gate.

Yes, clean regularly, lubricate hinges or tracks, and inspect for damage to ensure smooth operation.
