Custom Metal Vehicular Gate
Premium Custom Metal Vehicular Gates in San Antonio, TX
A custom metal vehicular gate is one of the smartest upgrades you can make for your property. It improves security, controls access, and instantly upgrades curb appeal. At Alamo Decks & Fence, we design and install custom metal driveway gates for residential and commercial properties throughout San Antonio and nearby areas. Every gate is built to fit your driveway, your fencing style, and how you actually use your property.
If you want a metal gate that feels solid, operates smoothly, and looks like it belongs on your home or business, you are in the right place.
Professional Metal Driveway Gate Installation
Vehicular gates are not one size fits all. A proper installation requires planning for driveway width, slope, daily traffic, wind load, and long-term durability. Our team handles the full process from design to installation so you end up with a gate that works reliably and holds up in Texas weather.
We build custom metal vehicular gates for:
- Residential driveways
- Private roads and shared access points
- Ranch and large property entrances
- Commercial and industrial properties
- Gated communities and multi-tenant sites
Each gate is fabricated to match your specific opening and installed with the correct posts, hardware, and clearances.

Metal Materials and Finishes
We work with durable metal materials selected for strength, performance, and appearance. Your gate material is chosen based on size, weight requirements, and desired look.
Common options include:
- Steel-framed vehicular gates for strength and stability
- Ornamental iron style gates for classic designs
- Aluminum gates where reduced weight is important
Finishing is just as important as the material itself. Proper coatings help protect against rust, fading, and wear caused by heat and moisture. We will guide you through finish options that balance appearance and maintenance needs.
Benefits of Custom Metal Vehicular Gates
Improved security and access control
A metal driveway gate clearly defines who can enter your property. Whether manual or automated, it helps reduce unwanted access and gives you control over vehicle entry.
Long-lasting durability
Metal gates outperform many wood options when it comes to daily use, sun exposure, and long-term strength. Proper fabrication and finishing make a big difference in lifespan.
Enhanced curb appeal
A custom metal gate becomes a focal point of your property. When designed to match your fence and home style, it adds value and a polished, high-end look.
Custom functionality
From wide double-drive gates to space-saving slide gates, your gate is designed around how you use your driveway, not the other way around.
