Horizontal timber slat gate between stucco piers, under flowering bougainvillea.
Inland & equestrian — West of the turnpike the county turns to paddocks and service roads, and a gate is sized around a truck and trailer.

Greenacres · Palm Beach County

Cut list, jig, weld, dress, finish, hang. Keeping all six steps in one place is why a one-off is possible at all — nothing has to be ordered to a standard size, and the people who fabricated it are the people who hang it.

Out here it is as often structural welding as ornament: posts, frames, hinges and rails repaired where they stand rather than carted back to a shop.

Utilities thin out quickly away from the built-up grid, so the supply question gets asked before the design question.

Outside the HVHZ — a different set of paperwork

Palm Beach County sits outside the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone that governs Miami-Dade and Broward. Wind still decides the frame here; the product-approval paperwork is simply a different set. Permitting in Greenacres is administered locally, so confirm what is expected before fabrication starts.

  • Ornamental ironwork
  • Drawn in-house
  • Cut and welded here
  • On-site welding
  • Solar & battery options
The gate is nowhere near a power supply.
That is a normal starting point. Solar, battery and trenched runs are all real options, and the site decides between them.
How far can the control run?
Further than most people expect, but the run length is what decides the cable, the voltage drop, and whether wireless is the better answer.
Is the paperwork the same as Miami?
No. Palm Beach is outside the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, so it is a different product-approval set, and permitting is administered locally on top of that.
Why is the spec different up here?
Palm Beach County sits outside the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone that governs Miami-Dade and Broward, so the approval route the counties south of it use is the wrong one.
