Overview
Start with the opening, then choose the style
A driveway gate has to fit the vehicles using it and the space available to move. Measure the opening, consider the driveway slope and check for parked cars or landscaping in the swing path. A walk gate has different needs: comfortable access and hardware suited to the people using it.
A flat top gives a simple profile; an arch or decorative pickets can echo an existing fence or a more traditional entrance. Many gates described as iron are ornamental steel, so ask which metal, frame and finish are included in the quote.
Posts, hinges and footings must suit the gate. If you may add an opener, discuss power, operator space and safety devices while planning the gate rather than treating those details as an afterthought.

Planning in Fort Worth
Plan for the conditions at your entrance
Sun, rain and everyday use all affect a metal gate and its hardware. Ask what finish is specified and how to care for it.
An entrance on uneven ground or shifting soil needs particular attention to the posts, clearance and gate movement. The right details depend on the site and gate design.

Answers to help you plan custom iron gates in Fort Worth.
More fence questionsWhat determines the cost of a custom iron gate?
Opening size, gate design, metal, finish, posts, hardware and any automation affect the price. Share a photo and approximate measurements to start the quote discussion.
Can I automate a gate later?
Often, if the gate, posts and site can accommodate an operator. Discuss future power, mounting space and safety devices during the initial design; compatibility depends on the final equipment.
Are ornamental iron gates made from wrought iron?
Many modern ornamental gates use steel rather than traditional wrought iron. Ask for the actual material, frame specification and finish in your quote.
Can a new gate match an existing fence?
It may be possible to match the profile and details closely. Photos, measurements and the existing fence material will help determine what can be matched.
