Estate Entrance Gates in Metairie, LA

Grand entrance gates that set the tone for an estate, a long drive or a gated property.

Old Metairie estate homes sit on large lots where the entrance sets the tone for everything behind it. An entrance gate there needs real presence and real strength, because wind coming off Lake Pontchartrain during a tropical storm pushes hard on wide double leaves. We design the gate, the posts and the opener as one system, so the parts share the load instead of fighting it. Wide openings also need dependable operators, and we install LiftMaster and Viking models to Louisiana State Fire Marshal gate system requirements. Planning an entrance on a Metairie estate?

Choosing the right entrance for a large property

Estate entrances come in many shapes. These are the choices we walk through with you.

A pair of tall gates gives the grand, classic look many estates want. They need strong posts and a well-matched operator to carry the weight.

A slide gate can suit a long, level fence line and keeps the swing area clear. It needs open room beside the entrance.

Masonry pillars add mass and a stately look. Iron posts keep the entrance lighter and open. Either way, the posts carry the gate, so they get close attention.

A standard gate is built to common sizes. A custom estate gate is drawn for your opening and your property, so the whole entrance feels planned.

Local conditions in Metairie

How Metairie Weather and Soil Shape Your Estate Entrance Gates

These are the conditions around Metairie that affect estate entrance gates, and how we build for them.

  • Hurricanes

    Hurricane-force wind puts heavy load on gates, hinges, posts and operator arms across the metro area.

    How we build for it: A tall gate has a lot of surface for wind to push on. We design the ironwork, hinges and posts to handle those loads.
