Why Bel Air homeowners pick Red Stag

Three reasons our gates work is different in Bel Air.

01

Structural steel core.

Every gate over 8 feet uses a structural steel armature engineered to take 100+ mph wind load and 20 years of daily cycles. The hardwood is cladding — the structure is steel.

02

Hidden hardware, integrated controls.

Pivot, sliding, and bi-fold mechanisms with magnetic latches, biometric or keypad access, and full smart-home integration. No exposed hinges, no surface-mount controllers.

03

Designed to read with the architecture.

Estate gates are an architectural element, not an accessory. We collaborate with your architect (or design from scratch) to make the gate a continuation of the perimeter wall — not a bolt-on.

That changes what a gates project looks like — both in spec and in process.
