Custom Swing Driveway Gate
A Durable, Modern Entrance Built for Strength and Precision
At Iron Age Manufacturing Ltd., we recently designed, fabricated, and installed a custom double-swing driveway gate for a residential property in Vancouver.
This project aimed to combine security, elegance, and durability while ensuring smooth operation and long-term reliability under Vancouver’s weather conditions.
What Is a Swing Driveway Gate?
A swing gate opens by rotating inward or outward on hinges, much like a traditional door. It’s ideal for properties with level driveways and enough space for the gate leaves to swing freely.
Compared to sliding or telescopic gates, a swing gate offers a classic, symmetrical appearance and requires less mechanical maintenance.
Design & Fabrication by Iron Age
Every part of this gate was custom-engineered and built in our Vancouver facility, from heavy-duty steel framing to powder-coated finishing and on-site installation.
Project highlights:
Material: Welded steel frame with vertical pickets and reinforced hinge structure
Finish: Zinc-primed and powder-coated matte black for a durable, corrosion-resistant surface
Hardware: Heavy-duty hinges with precision alignment to prevent sagging
Foundation: Anchored into reinforced concrete pillars for maximum stability
Details: Clean lines, minimal visible hardware, and readiness for future automation
During installation, our team used lifting equipment for precise alignment and performed full-swing calibration to ensure effortless opening and closing motion.
