Steel, aluminum, iron · Miami, FL
Material and finish get specified for where the gate has to stand.

Miami · Miami-Dade County
Steel takes ornamental work and welds hard. Aluminum will not rust and suits long runs. Wrought iron is the traditional answer where the detail matters most. Sun and salt are the design brief in South Florida, so the finish is chosen with the same care as the frame.
Where the driveway meets the sidewalk there is no arc for a swing leaf to travel through. That usually points at a slide or a cantilever, and it is far better to find that out at the measure than on install day.
Older inland streets mix construction from several decades, so two openings on the same block are not necessarily the same problem.
Wind load first, paperwork second
The High-Velocity Hurricane Zone covers Miami-Dade in full, which is what decides the frame and the fixings long before anyone picks a finish. Approval is a separate, local question: in Miami it runs through whichever authority has jurisdiction, and where a homeowners' association governs the street its architectural review usually runs alongside it.
