We are passionate about metal here at Fortin Ironworks, and we ensure all of our products only utilize the best quality materials we can offer. Each of our standard drive gates is fabricated entirely from thick gauge steel components, giving each panel immense strength that can withstand the wear and tear a drive gate experiences. To hold up each gate panel, we use a thick gauge steel tubing for each post, taking every precaution we can to make sure your gate doesn’t sag over time. Many of our standard styles contain solid cast metal flourishes such as finials and scrolls, which are fully welded to gate, ensuring they won’t go anywhere.

At Fortin Ironworks, we take pride in having the unique capability to do each step in the product manufacturing process in-house, meaning your gate doesn’t leave our doors until it is powder-coated, and ready to be installed. Our standard finish is a custom formulated black powder coat, specifically designed for Fortin Ironworks, and is our best recommendation for the longevity of your drive gate. This powder coat finish is built to withstand the elements, and gives your gate resistance to corrosion and rusting. We also offer a collection of alternate powder coat options for customers looking for different colors or finishes, along with paint finishes that offer more expansive color options.

Here at Fortin Ironworks, we are the manufacturer, meaning all of our drive gates are made-to-order and hand-crafted, giving you the ability to customize any of our styles to fit your project.
