The double swing is our estate driveway statement piece — two leaves meeting at the centerline, sized for openings 12 to 20 feet. We build it in three design languages: mid-century modern with clean horizontal lines and minimal ironwork; Craftsman with heavier timber and exposed joinery; and traditional estate with custom arches and, on the right property, an arbor built above the opening.

In Granite Bay, granite bay estates run to multi-acre parcels off auburn-folsom, eureka, and douglas — long, formal entry drives where the gate carries the first read of the property. Sustained foothill heat and open exposure drive UV-stable finish specs and wind-load engineering, especially on solid-panel automated gates. Manual or motor-automated is a decision made per site — long drives almost always warrant automation, shorter formal approaches sometimes read better manual.

Frames are mortise-and-tenon joinery in Sapele mahogany over redwood, hung on hardware sized to the loaded leaf. Los Lagos, Wexford, and Treelake require design review; we prepare and shepherd the submittal packet through. We build regularly in Los Lagos, Granite Bay Hills, Treelake, Wexford, and the Eureka Road corridor.
