Quality Craftsmanship

No Two Properties Are the Same — Your Gate Should Not Be Either

An off-the-shelf gate is designed to fit the average opening and satisfy the average customer. If you have spent money on quality fencing, a quality property, or a distinctive design, a generic gate undermines all of it the moment someone pulls into your driveway.

A3 Fencing builds custom gates from the ground up — welded steel, ornamental iron, wood-and-steel combinations, or whatever best fits your existing fence system and property character. Every gate is built to your exact opening dimensions and hung on heavy-duty hardware rated for the weight and frequency of use it will see.

Whether you need a single pedestrian gate, a wide double-drive gate, a ranch entrance, or a commercial sliding gate, we design it around your specific requirements and install it to last. We also build gates that are automation-ready if you plan to add a gate operator in the future.

Custom Gate Solutions for Every Application

From a simple pedestrian entry to a grand ranch entrance, we build custom gates for residential, agricultural, and commercial properties throughout the Central Valley.

Pedestrian Gates

Walk-through gates for side yard access, garden entries, and pool enclosures. Built to the exact width of your opening and hung on heavy-duty hinges that will not sag over time.

Driveway & Double Drive Gates

Single and double swing driveway gates for residential and commercial entrances. We build them wide enough for your vehicles and strong enough for daily use year after year.

Ranch & Farm Entrances

Wide-opening ranch gates built for truck and equipment access. We design these for both function and curb appeal, with custom header options that make a statement at the property entrance.

Commercial Sliding Gates

Cantilever and track-mounted sliding gates for commercial properties, industrial yards, and high-traffic entrances. Built for heavy-duty use and compatible with access control and automation systems.

Ornamental & Decorative Gates

Custom-welded ornamental iron and steel gates with decorative details, scrollwork, or laser-cut panel inserts. Designed to serve as a focal point for your property while still providing real security.

Automation-Ready Construction

Every custom gate we build can be constructed with automation compatibility in mind — proper counterbalancing, operator mounting points, and wiring conduit — so adding a gate operator later is straightforward.

Built Right, From Start to Finish

Every custom gate starts with a conversation and ends with a walkthrough. Here is what the process looks like.

01

Site Assessment & Design

We visit your property, measure the opening, assess the post condition and terrain, and discuss the style and functionality you need. From there we design a gate that fits perfectly — both physically and visually.

02

Fabrication

Your gate is built to spec — welded, ground, and finished in the material and color you selected. We do not order from a catalog; your gate is fabricated specifically for your opening and your property.

03

Professional Installation

We install new posts where needed, hang the gate on heavy-duty hardware, and ensure it swings or slides correctly with proper clearance. Gates are level, plumb, and latched securely before we leave.

04

Final Walkthrough

We walk you through the gate operation, hardware, and latch mechanisms before we consider the job complete. If anything needs adjustment, we handle it on the spot.

Have questions about custom gates? We have answered the most common ones below. Reach out if you need more detail.

What materials do you use for custom gates?

We build custom gates from welded steel, ornamental iron, aluminum, and wood-and-steel combinations. The right material depends on your aesthetic goals, security requirements, and whether the gate will be manually operated or automated. We will recommend the best option during the design consultation.

Can you match my existing fence style?

Yes. We design custom gates to complement your existing fence — matching material, color, rail profile, and design details so the gate looks like it was always part of the original installation rather than an afterthought.

How wide can a custom gate be?

We build gates in virtually any width. Single swing gates are typically practical up to around 16 feet; beyond that, double swing or sliding configurations are usually more appropriate. We assess your specific opening and recommend the right configuration.

Can you build a gate that will work with an automated opener?

Yes. We build automation-ready gates with proper counterbalancing, operator mounting provisions, and conduit routing so adding a gate operator is straightforward. If you want automation from day one, we can design and install the opener as part of the same project.

How long does it take to fabricate and install a custom gate?

Fabrication and installation timelines depend on the complexity of the gate and our current project schedule. Simple swing gates can often be completed within a week or two of the estimate approval. More complex custom gates may take longer. We provide a realistic timeline as part of every estimate.

Do you repair existing gates?

Yes. If your existing gate is sagging, binding, or has damaged hardware, we can often repair or rehang it rather than replace it entirely. Contact us and describe the issue — we will let you know whether repair or replacement makes more sense for your situation.
