About

Custom and Automated Gates for the Capital

Olympia mixes Victorian and craftsman streets near the Capitol with newer neighborhoods toward Lacey and Tumwater, all in marine-damp air off Budd Inlet. A gate here has to suit both eras and shrug off the moisture, from an ornamental driveway gate to a modern walk gate.

We fabricate custom and ornamental gates in our Kent shop, build prefab horizontal slat gates, and offer vertical gates custom or prefab, in steel, aluminum, or a metal frame with wood infill, with swing or slide automation finished for the South Sound climate.

We carry out our Olympia gate work in collaboration with Fences & Gates Pro, combining their gate and access expertise with the fabrication, automation, and finishing we handle ourselves.

What We Build

Gate Designs: Custom, Prefab Horizontal Slat, and Vertical

From period ornamental to modern slat, three builds cover Olympia’s entrances, all automatable.

Custom Fabricated Gates

Custom fabricated gates reproduce period detail for a South Capitol home or build a modern driveway gate, welded to any design and matched to the house.

Prefab Horizontal Slat Gates

Prefab horizontal slat gates bring a clean, modern entrance to newer Olympia homes in an efficient build that resists the inlet air.

Vertical Gates, Custom or Prefab

Vertical gates give the classic upright line, custom fabricated for an exact period match or set as a quality prefab panel for a simpler opening.

Slat Materials

Gate Materials: Aluminum, Steel, or Wood Infill

The inlet’s damp air rewards choosing the gate material carefully.

Aluminum and Steel Gates

Aluminum handles the marine damp without corroding and keeps an automated gate moving; steel provides the backbone for ornamental work and wide gates, finished through a multi-step coat.

Metal Frame with Wood Infill

A metal frame with real wood infill unites a strong frame with natural boards, giving a period entrance genuine wood warmth on a gate that holds its shape in the marine damp.

Privacy Levels

Privacy, Semi Privacy, or Open Gates

Infill spacing sets the seclusion each Olympia entrance actually needs.

Privacy

Solid or tight infill secludes a back garden or driveway gate fully, useful on the compact lots near downtown.

Open & Architectural

Open, ornamental spacing draws a clean line around an entrance without hiding a period facade.

Automation

Automated Swing and Slide Gates in Olympia

Both driveway gate types can be automated and finished for the inlet air. We build and install the automation, then set it to open by remote, keypad, intercom, a wall button, or a sensor that reads an approaching vehicle.

Swing Gates

Swing gates hinge open like a door in the classic period look, suited to a level Olympia drive with room to arc.

Slide Gates

Slide gates roll to the side along the fence line, the answer for a short Olympia lot or a sloped approach.

Every automated gate includes safety sensors that stop and reverse it if something is in the path, and we can add a keypad, intercom, or remote so visitors and deliveries get in with a tap.

Laser Cut Panels

Custom Laser Cut Panels for Olympia Gates

We laser cut custom metal panels into gates, so an Olympia entrance can carry a period pattern or a house number. The panels build into both custom and prefab gates, and this work is done in collaboration with Fences & Gates Pro.

Neighborhoods

Metal Gates Across Olympia

From South Capitol and Bigelow to the Eastside, Westside, and out toward Tumwater and Lacey, we build and automate gates matched to the home’s era and its distance from the water.

Communities and New Builds

Working With Olympia HOAs and New Construction

The newer communities toward Lacey, Tumwater, and Olympia’s edges commonly review gates through an HOA. We provide the drawings and finish samples that make that signoff simple.

For new construction we coordinate the gate and its automation with your builder on timing and finish, so the entrance completes the exterior rather than trailing it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. We build the gate to match your fence in material, profile, and powder-coat color, ornamental or modern, so the entrance reads as part of the line. Because we fabricate both in-house, the match is exact.

Yes, when specified for it. The marine-damp air is hard on ordinary metal, so near the water we favor rust-free aluminum, finish steel through a multi-step process, and protect the automation and hardware, so the gate keeps operating smoothly for years.

A swing gate suits a level drive with room to arc open; a slide gate rolls along the fence line for a short or sloped lot. Either can be fully automated. The gate opens by remote, keypad, intercom, a wall button, or a vehicle sensor, with safety sensors that stop it if something is in the way.

Yes, and it is some of our favorite work in the area. We reproduce period ornamental detail so a driveway or walk gate suits a Victorian or craftsman home near the Capitol rather than looking like a modern add-on. Because we fabricate by hand in our own shop, period matching is well within what we do, and the gate can still be automated.
