Wrought iron has been appreciated as a building material for centuries, and when it’s used as part of a gate or fence design, it can bring an authoritative and beautiful presence to any property.

Gates not only provide access to and from a property and a convenient entry point for both vehicles and pedestrians, wrought iron gates and fences also create an impression and add value and street appeal to homes and businesses.

One of the most common reasons people choose a metal gate or fence for the exterior of their home is because of their classic appearance – they exude a sense of luxury and history and are the epitome of old-world beauty.

Genuine wrought iron gates are actually few and far between because they have a tendency to rust, particularly in damp or salt air environments. In these environments, other materials are more commonly used, and with today’s modern and sophisticated treatment processes, it’s almost impossible to tell the difference between them. Quality iron is a product that has the ability to withstand all types of weather, including the harsh climates of the Gold Coast, Brisbane and the Sunshine Coast. And with our robust protective coatings and expert installation, you can be assured your iron gates will last a lifetime. So what are some of the main types of wrought iron gates?

Privacy Gates and Fences

One of the more common reasons people choose wrought iron fencing or gating is for privacy reasons. Commercial metal fencing can be used to reduce visibility around a perimeter, to keep undesirables out of the general area of the property, or both.

Depending on the type of privacy required, various designs can be created, and many feature hand-forged elements that complement your home’s architecture and your own personal style.

Driveway Gates

Driveway gates are so much more than just a way to restrict access. From rustic mountainside retreats to waterfront mansions by the beach, wrought iron has the potential to capture a range of artistic styles including Art Nouveau, Gothic and even Baroque styles. Commanding attention and creating a distinct impression, our iron gates are an important feature of any property and are built to stand the test of time.

We also offer a personalised design service that can create unique and customised wrought iron styles that will suit your both your home and your aesthetic preferences.

Garden Gates

And what about a lovely wrought iron trellis to finish off your floral escape? Our master blacksmiths can tailor any type of decorative or ornamental design you have the imagination to dream of.

Balustrades

Not exactly a ‘gate’ but worth a mention because of their ability to truly transform wrought iron into a work of art. Balustrades are not only an attractive indoor and outdoor design feature, they are an important safety precaution featured on railings, stairs, decks and balconies.

Iron’s malleability means that intricate curves, twists and other motifs can be incorporated into each balustrade pane, from symmetrical iron balusters as part of a Mediterranean style villa, or regal spirals below a polished timber staircase railing. Handcrafted to suit your design preferences, every separate baluster can be a feature in itself while also complying with the relevant building codes and specifications.

Whether indoors or outdoors, we manufacture and install a range of balustrading designs that will last. Unlike timber or aluminium that can rust and rot, wrought iron will stand up to all weather conditions making it the perfect material to use for deck, balcony and veranda balustrading. And forget about maintenance. With a protective coating and an impenetrable core, our iron railings and balusters are guaranteed to last a lifetime. And unlike glass that requires constant cleaning, our decorative iron balustrading is virtually maintenance free!
