Cedar and ipe weather to silver unless sealed; composite keeps its colour with no maintenance and is heavier. Both mount the same way to the frame.

Will the gaps stay even?

Yes — the boards are fixed to a rigid steel frame, not to each other, so seasonal movement shows up as tiny changes in each gap rather than a racked gate.

Do you install custom gates near me?

We professionally install in the Wilmington NC area and in Zebulon and the surrounding Raleigh / Triangle region. Outside our install area we deliver the finished gate for your own installer, or hold it for branch pickup.

Modern Horizontal Slat Gates

Horizontal boards with a consistent gap are the modern privacy look, and the one most likely to fail without a steel frame. Ours are built on a welded black steel tube frame so the lines stay dead straight at any width.

How we build it

Horizontal cedar, ipe or composite boards with a consistent gap, mounted to a welded steel frame. The modern-privacy look, and one that genuinely needs a steel frame to stay straight at driveway width.

Matches your custom hybrid fence. Semi-privacy. A heavy infill — we size posts, hinges and any operator for it.

Available as

Galvanized Steel Tube — Single Swing Gate, Double Swing Gate, Roller Cantilever Slide Gate(quoted)
Black Steel Tube — Single Swing Gate, Double Swing Gate, Roller Cantilever Slide Gate(quoted)
