Custom Estate Gates and Automation in Medina
On a Medina estate the driveway gate sets the entire first impression and carries much of the property’s security. It has to match a home of exceptional caliber and operate flawlessly every day, so nothing here comes from a stock catalog.
We design from the grounds, fabricate in our Kent shop, and coordinate the finish with the estate’s other metalwork, offering custom gates, prefab horizontal slat gates, and vertical gates in steel, aluminum, or a metal frame with wood infill, with swing or slide automation.
We carry out our Medina gate work in collaboration with Fences & Gates Pro, combining their gate and access expertise with the custom fabrication and automation we handle ourselves.
What We Build
Estate Gate Designs: Custom, Slat, and Vertical
On an estate the driveway gate is usually custom, though all three builds are available.
Custom Fabricated Gates
Custom fabricated gates are the heart of our Medina work, welded to any ornamental or modern design and matched to the home, for a driveway entrance that announces the estate.
Prefab Horizontal Slat Gates
Prefab horizontal slat gates bring a clean, modern line to a secondary or service entrance, built efficiently and finished to the property’s standard.
Vertical Gates, Custom or Prefab
Vertical gates give a formal, upright entrance line, custom fabricated to match the home or set as a quality prefab panel where a simpler opening works.
Slat Materials
Gate Materials: Aluminum, Steel, or Wood Infill
For an estate gate the material is chosen as deliberately as the design.
Aluminum and Steel Gates
Aluminum resists the lakeside damp and keeps a large gate light enough for smooth automation; steel carries the weight and presence a grand driveway entrance demands. Both are finished to match the estate.
Metal Frame with Wood Infill
A metal frame with real wood infill unites a strong, true-running frame with natural hardwood, the choice for an estate that wants authentic wood warmth on a gate that stays perfectly square.
Privacy Levels
Privacy, Semi Privacy, or Open Estate Gates
How much the gate screens the grounds depends on the infill.
Privacy
Solid or tight infill gives a Medina driveway gate complete privacy and screens the estate from the road.
Semi Privacy
A slight reveal softens a grand gate while still holding privacy, a refined balance for a formal entrance.
Open & Architectural
Open, ornamental spacing makes the gate a stately architectural feature that frames the estate without concealing it.
Automation
Automated Estate Gates: Swing and Slide
A Medina estate gate is almost always automated, and we build and install that automation on both swing and slide gates. It opens the way you prefer, by remote, keypad, intercom, a wall button, or a sensor that reads an approaching vehicle.
Swing Gates
Swing gates hinge open with the presence a grand entrance wants, suited to a level estate drive with room for the gate to arc.
Slide Gates
Slide gates roll aside along the wall or fence, ideal where an estate drive is short, sloped, or set close to the street.
Every automated estate gate includes safety sensors that stop and reverse it for anything in the path, and we can integrate entry by keypad, intercom, or remote so residents, guests, and staff move through easily.
Laser Cut Panels
Custom Laser Cut Panels for Medina Gates
We laser cut custom metal panels into estate gates, so a Medina entrance can carry a family crest, an address, or a signature pattern. The panels build into both custom and prefab gates, and this work is done in collaboration with Fences & Gates Pro.
Neighborhoods
Estate Gates in Medina and the Points
We build and automate gates across Medina and the neighboring Points communities, Clyde Hill, Yarrow Point, and Hunts Point, where much of the work comes by referral from one finished estate to the next.

Communities and New Builds
Working With Medina HOAs and New Construction
Medina projects often run through an architect, and some enclaves keep their own expectations for street-facing gates. We produce shop drawings and finish samples that make any design review simple.
On new estate construction we join early, coordinating the gate, its automation, and the driveway grade with the design team so the entrance is resolved as one piece.

Customer Reviews for Custom Railings WA
See What Our Customers Are Saying
Posted on Google Kristina G.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We're so thrilled with our new stair railings! Custom Railings WA and Mike's team did a high quality job from start to finish. We got the black powder coat finish with hemlock handrail in natural stain, which looks so elegant (see attached photos). The powder coat finish is really attractive, and we like that it's durable and not easily scratched. We were a little nervous that the wood color/characteristics on the top rail might turn out to be inconsistent across such a long run of railing, but the hand rails on all of the railings match beautifully. Thank you, Mike and team for taking such great care of us! Our new stairs are the perfect touch for our new farmhouse.Posted on Google Adele FesanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We used this company for the second time, and this was our first time ordering railing for an outdoor deck. The service was absolutely outstanding from start to finish. Communication was excellent, the team was easy to work with, and everything was completed exactly on schedule. The installation crew was highly professional, respectful, and left the area clean after completing the job. It was truly a pleasure working with a company that operates with such care and professionalism. The quality of the railing is top-notch — a very high-end product that exceeded our expectations. We would highly recommend this company and will definitely use them again in the future.Posted on Google Leyla HasanovaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We ordered glass railings for our parents’ home in Seattle. We were choosing between two options, glass or modern metal railings, and in the end we decided to go with glass. We’re extremely happy with that choice. The team helped us understand the differences, guided us through the design, and completed the installation on time. The railings look amazing. Great experience overall!Posted on Google Zamina BabayevaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. From the first day, they were professional and easy to work with. Mike always replied quickly, and the team made sure every detail was just how I wanted. In the end, we got beautiful glass railings that fit perfectly with our modern home in Bellevue. Thank you, Custom Railings WA, for making the whole process smooth and enjoyable!Posted on Google J BTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had such a good experience getting outdoor railings for my front concrete steps and for my stone steps in the back garden. I had put off doing this for so long and thought that railings might detract from the aesthetic look of my yard, but I was so wrong. I absolutely love my new railings, and loved working with all the guys who came out - to measure, to bend the metal and dig post holes, and finally to install the finished railings. Thank you!Posted on Google Jill SprattTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a wonderful experience with Mike and his crew at Custom Railings WA. From design planning to installation they were knowledgeable, patient, helpful and professional.Posted on Google K CarrollTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Fantastic experience. Could not be more thrilled with the work Custom Railings did. Start to finish top notch work, excellent communication, very professional crew, wish all companies operated with such integrity, truly a pleasure to work with!Posted on Google Hanaa Abou OufTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We have beautiful new railings thanks to Custom Railings. Good communication, beautiful product, and they made sure everything was clean before they left. I will definitely use them again in the future!Posted on Google Cathy MooreTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a great experience with Custom Railings WA. They replaced our outdated railing with a new custom designed railing that fit our dreams and our budget. Communication was always clear and timely. They even worked around the chaotic schedule of other contractors working on our bigger remodeling project that impacted when the railing could be installed. Very Happy with our railing.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will the gate hold up to the lakeside conditions?
CustomRailingsWA2026-08-05T15:04:55-07:00Yes, when specified for it. The lakeside damp is hard on ordinary metal, so we use rust-free aluminum where it fits, finish steel through a multi-step process, and protect the automation and hardware. Built this way, an estate gate operates smoothly on the Medina waterfront for years.
Do you coordinate with our architect or landscape designer?
CustomRailingsWA2026-08-05T15:04:27-07:00Yes. On Medina estates the gate is usually part of a larger design, so we work from architect or landscape drawings, provide shop drawings, and coordinate the finish and the driveway grade with the team. Because we fabricate in-house, we can carry one look across the gate, the fence, and any privacy screens.
Can you automate a large estate driveway gate?
CustomRailingsWA2026-08-05T15:03:52-07:00Yes. Both swing and slide gates can be fully automated, including wide, heavy estate gates, and we build and install the automation to match. It opens by remote, keypad, intercom, a wall button, or a sensor that reads an approaching vehicle, and it includes safety sensors that stop the gate if something is in the way.
What kind of gate suits a Medina estate entrance?
CustomRailingsWA2026-08-05T15:03:13-07:00Most Medina driveways call for a custom fabricated, automated gate matched to the home, whether ornamental or modern. We design it to the grounds, choose swing or slide based on the driveway, and coordinate the finish with the estate's other metalwork. Prefab and vertical options are available for secondary or service entrances.
