Alexandria, LA · The Only In-House Gate Shop in Central Louisiana
Gate Shop
Alexandria, Louisiana
We're the only gate fabrication shop in Central Louisiana welding custom iron and steel gates in-house. Every gate we build is cut, welded, and finished by our AWS-certified welders — not ordered from a catalog.
What Makes Us Different
We Build Gates. Most Companies Just Install Them.
Every other fence and gate company in Central Louisiana orders prefabricated panels from a distributor. We don't. We have a welding shop where our AWS-certified welders fabricate custom iron and steel gates from raw material — angle iron, square tube, flat bar, and ornamental components.
That means we can build any size, any design, any configuration. Non-standard openings, matching existing ironwork, custom scroll work, your initials or a logo welded in — none of that is possible when you're limited to what a distributor stocks.
It also means tighter quality control. We inspect every weld, every hinge, every latch before a gate leaves our shop. When something goes out under our name, it was built by us.

Gate Shop FAQ — Alexandria, LA
Are you actually a gate fabrication shop in Alexandria, LA?
Yes. We have a welding shop in Central Louisiana where our AWS-certified welders fabricate custom iron and steel gates from raw material. We don't order prefab gates from a distributor — we cut, weld, and finish every gate ourselves. That's what makes us different from every other fence and gate company in the area.
What's the difference between a fabricated gate and a prefab gate?
A prefab gate comes in standard sizes from a manufacturer — you pick from what's available. A fabricated gate is built to your exact opening, your design, and your specs. We can match existing ironwork, build custom scroll designs, add your initials or a logo, or engineer a gate for a non-standard opening that no prefab panel would fit.
How much does a custom fabricated gate cost in Alexandria, LA?
Custom gate pricing depends on size, material, design complexity, and whether you need an automated operator. A basic single driveway swing gate starts around $800–$1,500 fabricated and installed. Ornamental iron double gates with scroll work and automation typically run $3,000–$8,000+. Call (318) 446-2134 for a free estimate on your specific project.
Do you install automated gate openers?
Yes. We install LiftMaster and Viking gate operators on swing and slide gates. We can integrate keypads, card readers, intercoms, loop detectors, and remote access systems. We handle the full installation — gate fabrication, operator mounting, wiring, and programming.
Can you match an existing gate or fence design?
Yes. Bring us photos or measurements of your existing ironwork and we'll fabricate a gate that matches. We do this regularly for homeowners adding a driveway gate to an existing ornamental iron fence.
Do you build gates for commercial properties?
Yes. Commercial gates are a significant part of our work — warehouses, industrial facilities, parking lots, schools, and government properties. We build heavy-duty steel slide gates, swing gates, and barrier arms for commercial applications throughout Central Louisiana.
What areas do you serve from your gate shop?
We serve Alexandria, Pineville, Natchitoches, Leesville, Marksville, and all of Central Louisiana from our shop. We also travel for larger commercial gate projects statewide.
