Metal Gates

Metal gates in Nottingham continue to be popular as they provide a different character to the entrance of a property  which is generally more open and transparent to allow the garden behind the gate to be seen. That refers to all metal gates utilising bars. Other metal gate utilising composites or wood will be more solid and we offer a bespoke supply and fit services for these too.

We provide all sizes of garden metal gates with the most popular sizes being about 6 foot in height for side entrance gates and 3-4 foot for a small front garden entrance gate. We will always come to take exact measurements to ensure we know what fixing points we need to ensure a perfect and sturdy fit.

Whilst most metal gates are finished with black powder coated paint if you have different requirements simply let us know. Likewise the top of a metal gate can be finished off more decoratively than simply a flat bar. There are a number of filigree options that can be added to the top of a gate or even in between the bars. These ornamental sections can also be be finished in a different colour - mostly gold or silver and occasionally red. The most common ornamental topping is a spear with a less imposing ball topping being the second most popular metal gate top bar finish but we've included more optoins below.

Wrought Iron Gates Nottingham

Here's a small selection of some of wrought iron and metal gates we have fitted in Nottingham. As you will see there is a wide variety of sizes and, where there is a big gap we can include matching metal fencing.

Wrought iron gates are a popular choice for homeowners and businesses looking for both security and aesthetic appeal. These gates are known for their durability and strength, making them an excellent option for properties. In addition to their functionality, wrought iron gates also add a touch of elegance and sophistication to any space. With intricate designs and timeless beauty, these gates can truly enhance the overall look and feel of a property. Whether used for residential or commercial purposes, wrought iron gates are a practical and stylish choice.

Wrought Iron Gate Options

There are a number of areas where there are options to chose and customise when making a metal or wrought iron gate and we'll provide a overview here. There is a danger of having too many choices and not being able to decide but hopefully this is a fun challenge for you.

One of the first consideration is the to customise a wrought iron gate the the bars which can be flat, round, twisted or can include decoration such as baskets, leaves or knots and can be curved as well as straight. As baskets are one of the most popular decorative items these are also available as stand alone items which can the be fitted wherever you want on a bar and how frequently.

Clip-on panels are decorative items which can be attached to the bars, whilst described as clip on we can weld these onto the bars so that they cannot easily be removed or stolen. There are a large variety and will vary from year to year depending on what design may be on trend along with traditional favourites.

The post and rail tops and caps will be welded onto the top of a flat bar if the gate has a flat horizontal top or will be decorative items which can be welded to the tops of the vertical bars if they protrude over the top of the last horizontal bar. Scrolls and infills provide additional decorative features but as the name implies these often fit in-between bars. Letters & numbers and décor panels are similar to clip-on panels in terms of adding an item onto the gate.

Railing arches will simply provide the profiles to give your gate an arch or arches shape rather than a straight top. Finally you will need to decide on handles and locks!

Metal Gate Option Examples

Here are just a few examples of some of the options available for a wrought iron or metal gate. With potentially so many options available there can be a danger of costs escalating further and further. What we would recommend if you are working to a budget for your metal gate is to prioritise particular features you want so that you can include each one until your budget is met.

Metal Framed Wooden Gates Nottingham

When it comes to enhancing the aesthetics and security of your property, metal framed wooden gates are an excellent choice. These gates combine the strength and durability of metal with the natural beauty and warmth of wood, creating a perfect blend that will elevate the look of any entrance. So, why choose metal framed wooden gates over a standard wooden gate?

A metal frame provides strength and stability to the gate, ensuring that it can withstand harsh weather conditions and daily wear and tear. The wooden panels, on the other hand, add a touch of elegance and natural beauty, making the gate visually appealing.

With Nottingham Fencing our metal framed timber infill gates offers you a number of customisation options. You can choose from a variety of wood types, such as  western red cedar and African iroko or oak, based on your preference and the overall aesthetic of your property. Additionally, you can select the colour, and design elements of the frame to perfectly match your style and requirements. The metal frame adds an extra layer of security to the gate, making it difficult for intruders to break in. You can also opt for additional security features, such as locks and access control systems, to enhance the overall security of your property.

While wood requires maintenance to preserve its beauty and protect it from rot and pests, the metal frame significantly reduces the maintenance needs of the gate. The metal provides a protective layer to the wood, ensuring its longevity and reducing the need for frequent maintenance.
