Matching what exists · Oakland Park, FL

An existing panel, a neighbouring run, or a detail off the house itself.

Oakland Park · Broward County

Half of custom work is not inventing anything. It is reproducing a picket profile, a scroll or a cap that already exists on the property so the new piece does not announce itself as new.

Tight urban openings are exactly where a gate gets made rather than bought — an odd width, an awkward pier, a wall that is not square to the road.

Where the property line meets a public sidewalk, everything the gate does has to happen inside the property.

Also inside the HVHZ

Broward falls inside the same High-Velocity Hurricane Zone as Miami-Dade, so the wind rating carries across the county line unchanged. What does not carry across is the paperwork: permitting is administered locally, and the sensible order is to ask what Oakland Park expects before the steel is ordered rather than after.

I have a sketch, not a drawing.
A sketch is enough to start. We draw it properly and show you the gate on your entrance.
Can you match something that already exists?
Yes — an existing panel, a neighbouring property's detail, or a piece of the house itself.
Structural repair, not a new gate?
We weld on site. Posts, frames, hinges and rails get repaired where they stand.
Can you work from a photograph?
Yes. A photograph of the detail you want matched is usually more useful than a description of it.

Next step

We come out, look at what is actually there, and tell you what the Oakland Park site allows. That happens before anything is drawn.
