Gate Installation in San Marino
A gate install is six trades: structural steel fabrication, hardwood carpentry, electrical, motor / controller, smart-home integration, and finish. We do all of them in-house except the steel fab, which we coordinate with one of two LA fabricators we've worked with for over a decade. One contract, one PM, one delivery date. San Marino's coastal microclimate (hot summers) calls for salt-grade hardware on every gate installation we deliver here. We default to 316 stainless throughout for any project within 1 mile of the water.
