Drawn, fabricated and hung so the entrance reads as one piece of work.

Boca Raton · Palm Beach County

A gate is the only part of a property everyone sees and nobody walks past quickly. Piers, gate, fence line and the light on it either belong to each other or obviously do not, so they get drawn together rather than bought separately.

Frontages inside a planned community tend to repeat, and where an association governs the street its architectural guidelines usually decide the envelope the gate has to sit inside.

Master-planned streets tend to have their utilities in known places, which makes power and control runs more predictable than on older lots.

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 Boca Raton is administered locally, so confirm what is expected before fabrication starts.

  • Shop-fabricated
  • Coastal finish
  • On-site measure
  • Drawn before it's cut
  • Shared-entry duty cycle
Do I need pillars?
Not necessarily. Posts, piers and rendered pillars are three different structures, and the leaf and the ground decide which one is right.
Ours is a shared entry, not a driveway.
Different machine. It gets specified on cycles a day and on who needs to get through it, not on the gate's weight alone.
Who is responsible for the entry?
Usually the association rather than any one resident, which changes who we talk to and who signs the work off.
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.
