What Affects Cost

Six things move the number.

01
Opening width and height

Wider and taller gates use more material and need heavier hardware. The jump from 12 ft to 18 ft is significant.

02
Single vs double, swing vs sliding

Sliding gates cost more than swing gates in equivalent sizes because of the operator and track engineering.

03
Automation and access control

Adding automation typically adds $6,000–$15,000 depending on operator and access control complexity.

04
Design complexity

Hand-forged metalwork, custom inlay, CNC engraving, and curved framing all add fabrication time.

05
Site conditions

Slope, soil, existing posts, trenching distance to power, and concrete work all affect install cost.

06
Finish and hardware spec

Solid brass and bronze hardware costs more than powder-coated steel, but lasts longer and reads more refined.

Custom gates aren't catalog products. A 14-foot manual swing gate and a 14-foot automated cantilever sliding gate share almost nothing in cost. We give a transparent, fixed-price quote after we understand your site and design.
