A swing pair needs an arc. A slide needs a run alongside the opening. A cantilever needs neither but wants a counterbalance behind the post. Which of the three your driveway allows is a geometry question with one right answer, and it is worth settling early.

Close to open water the gate lives in salt air, so material and coating get specified before styling does — aluminum, or steel that is coated for the exposure rather than for the showroom.

Wind exposure on the water is not only a number in a code table — it is what actually loads a gate leaf, every afternoon.

One code, many counters

The wind-load requirement in Dania Beach is the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone standard that governs the whole of Broward. The review that sits on top of it is local, and in a county this dense with planned communities an association's architectural approval is frequently the longer of the two.

  • Shop-fabricated
  • Specified for salt exposure
Will it actually fit my driveway?
We measure on site and draw the gate on your entrance before anything is cut.
Swing or slide — which one?
Slope, curb space and where you park decide it. We tell you what the driveway allows.
How does it hold up here?
Salt and sun are the design brief in South Florida, so material and finish are specified for the coast.
Can I see it before it's built?
Yes. It gets drawn onto a photograph of your entrance, and the changes happen there rather than in the shop.
