How to Build FenceProfessional DIY & Kits

Custom Gates — Any Size, Any Fence Style

Swing or slide, welded aluminum or steel tube, skinned in wood, vinyl, chain link or aluminum — every gate we sell is built to your exact opening. Price an aluminum gate instantly, or quote a fabricated steel-frame gate in two minutes.

  • Built to your exact opening and height — no “close enough” stock sizes
  • Swing, double swing, roller cantilever or top-track cantilever
  • Welded aluminum, galvanized or black steel tube frames
  • Wood, vinyl, chain link, aluminum picket or horizontal slat infill
  • Optional automatic operator (UL-325 package)
  • Installed, delivered, or branch pickup

Four ways to close an opening

Swing when there is flat room for the arc. Slide when the drive is sloped, gravel, or wide. Every one is built to your exact width and height.

Single Swing Gate

One leaf on hinges — the simplest gate to build, hang and automate.

3′–20′ openings · 3′–10′ tall

Double Swing Gate

Two leaves meeting in the middle — the classic estate driveway entrance.

6′–40′ openings · 3′–10′ tall

Roller Cantilever Slide Gate

A steel-tube frame that rolls sideways on nylon rollers mounted to ground posts — nothing on the driveway.

8′–30′ openings · 4′–8′ tall

Top-Track Cantilever Slide Gate

A welded aluminum leaf hanging from an overhead aluminum track — rust-free and light.

10′–38′ openings · 4′–8′ tall

Three frame systems

The frame is the structure; the infill is the look. Welded aluminum is our factory line with instant pricing. The two steel tube frames are welded in our shop and take any fence-style infill.

Welded Aluminum

Our premium line. Fully welded structural aluminum frames with matching aluminum pickets, built to your opening as an estate swing gate or a top-track cantilever. Never rusts, light on hinges and operators, and every size is priced live from the catalog.

  • Rust-free for life
  • Instant online price
  • Four decorative top profiles
  • Lightest option for automation

Galvanized Steel Tube

A welded galvanized steel tube frame we fabricate in the shop to your exact size, then skin in whatever your fence is — wood, vinyl, chain link, aluminum picket or horizontal slat. Galvanized is the economical, corrosion-resistant choice for chain link and farm or commercial entrances.

  • Any fence-style infill
  • Nylon roller cantilever ready
  • Best value in steel
  • Built to the inch

Black Steel Tube

The same shop-welded steel tube frame, finished black so the frame reads as a shadow line behind wood, vinyl or black chain link. The usual pick when the gate has to match a black aluminum or black-coated chain link fence, or when the infill is the feature and the frame should not be.

  • Any fence-style infill
  • Matches black fence lines
  • Nylon roller cantilever ready
  • Built to the inch

  • Openings to 40′

Top-Track Cantilever Gates

A sliding gate that never touches the driveway — no ground track to clog with leaves, ice, or gravel. The right answer for wide or sloped entrances and commercial yards.

  • No ground track
  • Single track 10–29′, dual to 38′
  • Slide operator ready

Engineered, not eyeballed

Every gate we sell is built from real factory engineering drawings — exact member sizes, picket spacing, and arch geometry. These are the four estate top profiles you can configure in the builder.

Make it automatic

Add a real commercial operator to any gate we build — Viking and DoorKing slide operators for cantilever gates, the Viking R6 swing operator for estate gates (double gates get dual operators). Every operator ships as a complete UL-325 safety and access package, priced live in the builder.

What's in the package

  • • Operator drive unit sized for your gate
  • • UL-325 monitored safety edges & photo eyes
  • • Access control (keypad / remotes) options
  • • Professional wiring & commissioning on installs

Installed, delivered, or pickup

Professional installation serves Wilmington NC and Zebulon / the Raleigh Triangle. Delivery and branch pickup are available on every gate we build.

Delivery

We deliver the finished gate to your site for your own installer — free on most gate orders.

Branch pickup

Pick your gate up at the nearest branch and save the delivery fee. Always free.

Custom gate questions, answered

How much does a custom driveway gate cost?
Welded aluminum estate swing gates typically run from about $2,600 for a smaller single-leaf gate to $16,000+ for wide double gates; aluminum top-track cantilever slide gates run roughly $7,700–$25,500 depending on the opening — the gate builder prices your exact size instantly. Fabricated steel-frame gates (galvanized or black tube with wood, vinyl, chain link or aluminum infill) are quoted after we review the opening, infill and site; the quote builder collects everything the shop needs in two minutes.
Swing gate or cantilever slide gate?
Swing when there is flat, clear room for the leaf to arc and the opening is under about 20 feet. Cantilever slide when the driveway is sloped or gravel, the opening is wide, or there is no room to swing — the gate rolls sideways along the fence with nothing on the ground. A cantilever needs a straight run beside the opening about one-and-a-half times the opening width.
Can you build a gate to match my wood, vinyl or chain link fence?
Yes. We weld a galvanized or black steel tube frame to your exact size and skin it in the same boards, vinyl profile or chain link fabric as your fence, as a swing gate or a roller cantilever slide gate. The steel frame is what keeps a wide wood or vinyl gate from sagging.
Do you install driveway gates near me?
We professionally install gates in the Wilmington NC area and in Zebulon and the surrounding Raleigh / Triangle region. Outside our install area, we can deliver your gate for your own installer, or you can pick it up at the nearest branch.
Can my gate be automatic?
Yes. We fit real commercial operators — Viking and DoorKing slide operators for cantilever gates and the Viking R6 swing operator for estate gates (double gates get dual operators) — each as a complete UL-325 safety and access package.
What sizes can you build?
Every gate is built to the inch. Single swing gates to about 20 feet, double swing to 40 feet, roller cantilever slide gates for 8–30 foot openings, and aluminum top-track cantilevers for 10–38 foot openings. Heights run 3 to 10 feet depending on the gate.
What are the frames made of?
Three systems. Fully welded 6063-T5 aluminum, powder-coated Black, White, Bronze or Hunter Green — rust-free and priced instantly. Hot-dip galvanized steel tube — the economical workhorse for chain link and farm or commercial gates. Black powder-coated steel tube — the frame that disappears behind wood, vinyl or black chain link.
How do I get a firm quote?
Configure your gate in the online builder for an instant estimate, then send the quote request — we create a real estimate you can review, accept, and schedule from your customer portal. No payment is taken until you accept.
