We specialize in ornamental iron fences, railings, stairways, security gates, and window projects. Every piece is custom-fabricated to match your property’s style and withstand Colorado weather. Our team handles fence and gate installation, repair, and automation for both manual and automatic systems. Located near the Belmar shopping district and just minutes from Bear Creek Lake Park, we serve Lakewood homeowners who need durable fencing that complements their neighborhood. Whether it’s a classic iron gate for a mid-century ranch near Green Mountain or a secure entry system for a business off Kipling Street, we focus on quality and reliability. We take pride in work that lasts, and we’re grateful when clients recommend us to neighbors in Englewood and across Jefferson County.

Q&A

How do you handle rusty or damaged wrought-iron fences in Lakewood’s climate?

Lakewood’s freeze-thaw cycles and occasional hail can cause iron fences to rust or loosen. We start with a full inspection, sandblast rust to bare metal, and apply a rust-inhibiting primer before repainting. If sections are bent or broken, our welders repair or replace them on-site. For homeowners near Bear Creek Lake Park who face extra moisture, we also recommend galvanized steel components that resist corrosion longer.

What’s the process for installing an automatic gate at my Lakewood property?

First, we assess your driveway’s width, slope, and power access—common in neighborhoods off Wadsworth Boulevard. Then we custom-build a steel gate to your dimensions, install a heavy-duty opener (like LiftMaster or Mighty Mule), and bury conduit for wiring. We test the safety reverse sensors and keypad entry. If you live in a historic district near 9th Avenue, we can match the gate to existing ironwork.

Can you repair a manual gate that’s sagging or hard to close?

Yes. Sagging often means the hinges are worn or the post has shifted in the soil—common in older Lakewood homes with clay-heavy ground. We disassemble the gate, straighten the frame, replace hinges with heavier-duty ones, and reset the post in concrete. If the latch no longer aligns, we adjust or replace it. A well-repaired gate should swing freely and latch securely without dragging.
