    Driveway Gates Made for Toronto Homes

    A driveway gate is the first thing people see when they reach your home. It should look good, keep your property safe and work every day, even through a hard Toronto winter. At Ornate Ironworks & Decor, we design, build and install custom driveway gates for homeowners across Toronto, including North York, Etobicoke, Scarborough, East York and the downtown core.

    Every gate we make is built to order. We do not sell ready-made templates. We start with your driveway, your house and the look you want, then we shape a gate to match. You can choose iron, steel or aluminum, a classic scroll design or a clean modern pattern, and a swing or sliding opening.

    We are based in Woodbridge, Ontario, just north of Toronto, so your project is never far from our team. If you are also planning other metalwork, take a look at our custom iron gates, custom metal fences and metal railings.

    Driveway Gate Designs We Build

    A few examples of the arched, ornate and modern gates we make. Every gate is built to order, so yours can follow any of these styles or something completely new.

    Why Toronto Homeowners Choose Custom Driveway Gates

    Stronger Home Security

    A closed gate gives you a clear line of defence at the edge of your property. It helps keep unwanted visitors out and gives you more control over who comes near your front door.

    More Privacy on Busy Streets

    Toronto lots are close together and many streets are busy. A well designed gate and fence line gives your family a private space without hiding the style of your home.

    Easy Daily Access

    Pair your gate with an automatic opener and you can open it from your car, with a remote or with a keypad. No more stepping out in the rain or snow to open a heavy gate.

    Better Curb Appeal

    A custom gate is a feature people notice. It lifts the look of your home and helps it stand out on the street, whether you plan to stay for years or sell one day.

    Designed Around Your Home

    No two driveways are the same. We shape each gate to the width, slope and style of your property, so it looks like it was always meant to be there.

    Choose the Right Gate Style for Your Driveway

    The best style depends on your space, your home and how you use your driveway. Here are the main options we build for Toronto homes.

    Swing Driveway Gates

    Swing gates open on hinges, like a large door, and can open inward or outward. They suit driveways with enough clear space in front of the gate, and they are a popular choice for classic arched designs with scrollwork.

    Sliding Driveway Gates

    Sliding gates move sideways along your fence line. Because they do not swing across the driveway, they need less open space in front of the gate, which helps on shorter or sloped driveways.

    Automatic Gate Openers

    Any swing or sliding gate can be made automatic. Common choices include remotes, keypads and intercoms. Tell us how you want to use your gate and we will plan the access with you.

    Built for Toronto Winters

    Toronto weather is hard on metal. Snow, ice, road salt and summer heat all wear down a gate that is not built well. That is why we use premium grade steel and iron, apply a marine grade epoxy primer, and finish every gate with an industrial grade coating.

    A strong coating helps protect against rust and keeps the colour looking fresh. To keep your gate in good shape, rinse off winter salt in spring and wipe it down once or twice a year. It takes only a few minutes.

    4. We Install It

    We fit the gate, and any opener or matching fence panels, so everything lines up and works smoothly.

    Before You Build in Toronto

    The City of Toronto has rules for fences, gates and driveways. They can affect what you are allowed to build on your lot, such as height and how close a gate can sit to the street. The rules are different for each property, so it is smart to check with the City before work starts.

    We are happy to talk through your plans with you and design a gate that fits your lot and your needs.

    Driveway Gates in Toronto: Frequently Asked Questions

    How much does a custom driveway gate cost in Toronto?
    The price depends on the size, the design, the materials and extras such as an automatic opener. Because every gate is custom, we give a quote once we understand your driveway and what you want. Send us your details through the estimate form and we will get back to you.
    How long does it take to make and install a custom driveway gate?
    It depends on the design and our schedule. A simple design takes less time than a detailed laser cut or hand finished one. We share a timeline after we review your project.
    Should I choose a swing gate or a sliding gate?
    Swing gates suit driveways with enough open space in front of the gate and work well with classic arched designs. Sliding gates need less space in front because they move sideways along the fence line. We can look at your driveway and help you pick the better fit.
    Can I add an automatic opener to my driveway gate?
    Yes. Swing and sliding gates can both be made automatic. Many homeowners choose a remote, a keypad or an intercom. Tell us how you want to use the gate and we will plan it with you.
    Will my gate hold up through Toronto winters and road salt?
    We build gates from premium grade steel and iron, apply a marine grade epoxy primer and finish them with an industrial grade coating. This helps protect the metal from rust. Rinsing off salt in spring and wiping the gate down once or twice a year keeps it looking its best.
    Do I need a permit to install a driveway gate in Toronto?
    Rules depend on your property and the type of gate. The City of Toronto sets rules for things like fence and gate height and how close they can be to the street, so please check with the City before you build. We can talk through your plans and design a gate that suits your lot.
    Where are you based and which areas do you serve?
    We are based at 136 Winges Rd, Unit 6, Woodbridge, Ontario L4L 6C3. We work with homeowners in Toronto, Vaughan and across the Greater Toronto Area.
    Can you match the gate to my fence, railings or home style?
    Yes. We also make metal fences, railings, pedestrian gates and privacy screens, so the whole front of your home can match. Every piece is designed to suit your property.
