Why Sherman Oaks homeowners pick Red Stag
Three reasons our gates work is different in Sherman Oaks.
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.
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.
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.
