Choosing the design for your entry gate is an exciting yet daunting task. Do you select a handmade wooden gate with a rich, rustic finish? Or should you go with a custom wrought-iron dual gate with delicate scrollwork and eye-catching symmetry?

Your Gate Stands Out From the Crowd

When you combine wood and iron in a custom gate, you have creative license to design a completely unique landscape feature. Your gate may be constructed of a bright, sturdy wooden frame inset with wrought-iron branches and leaves. You may prefer a wooden privacy arrangement with a dual gate of upright planks encircled at the arched top by a delicate row of iron filigree.

If you want a modern, minimalist gate, have a simple iron frame made that holds plain wood planks. Clean, spare gates like this one we described let the rest of your property shine. For a stately gate, have your family crest or initials rendered in iron and set in the center of a castle-worthy, thick wooden gate.

Ideas are limitless when you combine wood and iron. Check out online images of wood and wrought-iron gates […]
