Custom Driveway Gates in Pasadena

An estate gate is the first impression of the home. We build pivot, sliding, and bi-fold gates with structural steel cores, Cumaru or Ipe cladding, and integrated biometric or app-based controls — designed to read as a continuation of your perimeter wall, not a bolt-on. Every gate is engineered for 100+ mph wind load and 20 years of daily cycles. In Pasadena specifically, the build context is different from a generic LA project. Architectural-history-rich. Bungalow Heaven, Madison Heights, and Oak Knoll for restored craftsman + traditional; San Rafael for hillside contemporary. That changes what a gates project looks like — both in spec and in process.
