Given the humid weather in Tampa, you'll get better lifespan from a metal gate door than you will from a wooden gate. Although the complete prevention of rust and corrosion is impossible when dealing with metal outdoors, there are plenty of steps that can greatly prolong the process. One of the most common steps is powder coating which basically seals any exposed metal with a protective layer, much stronger than paint, that keeps it free of moisture, dirt, and additional contaminants.
The most common metal finishes are black, white, and silver but with the addition of a powder coat, you can customize the final look to nearly any color you'd like. There are even a variety of finishing options such as gloss, matte and sometimes metallic. The traditional glossy black painted look of wrought iron is often handled with a powder coat these days. A matte finish is also available and frequently used in projects seeking a modern look. Talk to us about powder coating options if you want to learn more.
With such a large variety of needs for gates in Tampa, no request is unusual. Some more common projects include pool fences with sturdy locking mechanisms, tall security gates to guard a commercial business from pesky intruders, large perimeter fences with multiple entrances that surround an apartment development, or even small driveway and front yard gates to surround a garden or park. The installation of all these various projects fluctuates depending upon if the gate/fence needs to be secured into dirt, concrete, brick, or wood. We have experience with all and after inspecting your site and gathering the specifics, we will come specially prepared for each respective job.
Choose your fence metal, consider possible upgrades
Knowing your priority for this fence or gate can often point to which metal is best suited for the job. Budget also plays a major role. Hollow aluminum and steel options are the least expensive materials. They are also the most light weight but can have the shortest lifespan. While hollow steel may last for 20 or more years, a solid steel fence can last a lifetime. The same is true for wrought iron although it is used less and less in today's industry. Non-hollow options will be the heaviest and can sometimes cost as much as 5x - 10x the price of the hollow alternative. It all depends on what your needs are for your Tampa gate.
How much does an aluminum fence cost? That totally depends on the size of the fence and the quality or reputation of the company building and installing it. Typically your most top-of-the-line shop will charge in the ballpark of $350 per foot but we consider this to be very high. Shops that do quality work but don't have extreme overhead and premium markups may charge more in the range of $145 per foot. Call Tampa Welding if you're interested in metal fencing options so we can understand the details of your project and give you a fair price on a new fence.
If you plan to add a full length driveway gate that will be getting consistent use, consider installing an automated opener. There are swing gates and sliding gates, both of which can be operated with remotes, keypads and smart devices. A swing option requires more clearance down the front or back of the driveway while a sliding gate gets installed along the existing fence line. Unless you're dealing with an extra wide driveway, one motor and swing door should suffice. If you desire a more luxurious look, you can go the route of dual swinging panels, but keep in mind each will require its own motor, increasing your initial cost as well as the service and upkeep costs down the road.
We can design and install the following gate systems and others
Slide Gates
Slide gates can be used to secure large entryways, both indoors and outdoors. While mostly associated with commercial buildings, these versatile gates can also be installed in homes to secure driveways and other large entryways with an automated utilitarian appearance. Sometimes the required space around an entrance will dictate which type of gate opening must be used.
Swing Gates
Instead of small sliding gates that are built close to the entrance, once open a swing gate - like huge arms spread wide in a grand opening - welcome visitors and provide an open look to any property’s entrance or exit. Although this type is more common for residential use, they can be installed commercially too.
Driveway Gates
Automated driveway gates can be a great addition to a home. It not only adds visual appeal but also keeps your family and property safe from unwanted intruders. They are accompanied by a luxurious feel every time you return home. Automatic gates prevent unauthorized vehicles from entering your driveway because visitors must either call, have a code, or the proper device to open them. Your biggest benefit is that you can easily open it with the touch of a button on your car remote. Perfect for rainy days.
Folding Gates
A folding gate is an excellent way to protect doors and facades. With its scissor-like construction, a folding gate can easily and compactly be folded. These are not used residentially but more often found in shops and small commercial settings.
