We design, manufacture and install decorative wrought iron products to enhance the home. Our specialty is in providing high quality iron doors, staircase railing, balconies & wine cellar doors and have been manufacturing wrought iron products for multiple generations. We strive to offer new and unique designs with the highest quality standards. We manufacture the product in our facilities with exceptional attention to details and also professionally install all of our products with our product & installation guarantee. Wrought iron is our passion and when you come to us, your home becomes part of our passion. The final product is beyond pieces of metal welded together, but rather critically dependent on the design selected, the workmanship of the products, and the quality of installation along with details around it such as the molding. We enjoy and take great pride in guaranteeing amazing remodels. Additional DBA - Naddour’s Ornamental Iron.

"While the door appears beautiful, we have had to have the lock mechanism repaired/replaced multiple times. This is unacceptable for a purportedly high-end door. Save your money or go elsewhere."

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.

Whether you can attach a wood extension to a vinyl gate depends on the gate's construction. Some vinyl gates are sturdy enough to allow wood or vinyl boards to be attached. Many, however, have hollow frames that may not hold screws or heavy extensions securely. For these, consider alternative extension options such as a rubber flap or chicken wire.

The obvious disadvantage of an automatic gate is that it runs on electricity. If the power goes out, it won’t open or close unless there’s a manual override. Many homeowners will need a backup generator so they don’t get stuck on either side of the gate, particularly when looking to park a vehicle. Automatic gates are also much more complicated than manual gates, with tech-heavy components that make them more expensive to repair.

Double gates come with the same gaps as single gates, with hinges taking up a quarter of an inch of space. The difference is that double fence gates also have a center gap, which needs a little more clearance. Space the center gap at half an inch instead of the usual three-eighths of an inch for a single gate. 

When choosing a driveway gate, consider the fence material, whether you want an automatic gate or a manual one, and property limitations like the slope of your driveway. We recommend speaking with a professional driveway gate installer to see what types of gates will work on your property based on your fencing or home’s exterior. Keep in mind that driveway gates should range between 10 to 12 feet wide to ensure cars can easily maneuver through the gateway.
