Iron Projects | Expert Fence Contractors in Santa Ana, CA

Fence post movement is common in Santa Ana due to soil expansion and contraction. We address this by setting posts in concrete footings below the frost line (where applicable) and using rebar reinforcement. For swing gates, we install adjustable hinges that allow realignment over time. We also use heavy-duty post brackets and galvanized steel posts for added stability, ensuring your fence stays straight for years.

Yes, we offer painting and staining services for all types of gates and fences, including automatic and manual gates. We first clean and rust-treat the surface, then apply a high-quality exterior primer and paint or stain in a color of your choice. For ornamental iron, we can achieve a custom finish that complements your home’s look. We also provide periodic maintenance painting to extend the life of your ironwork.

Manual gates operate by hand and are simpler to install, typically using hinges and a latch. Automatic gates require an electric opener, sensors, safety beams, and sometimes keypads or remotes. We install both types, but automatic gates are ideal for driveways or high-traffic areas where convenience and security are priorities. We also retrofit existing manual gates to become automatic if desired.
