Custom Gates
Yes — Westforge Works fabricates custom sliding, swing, driveway, pedestrian and commercial gates to suit the property and opening. Gate frames, custom infill, matching panels and gate repairs are all workshop work, and the finished gate is prepared and powder coated or protectively coated in the same workshop. Most gates are supplied for manual operation; automation options are available for suitable gate systems where a customer wants them.

How it works
The process, step by step.
Discuss the opening
We talk through the opening, style, level changes and how the gate needs to work day to day.
Measure / scope
Measurements and a practical design suited to the gate size, weight and site conditions.
Fabricate
Gate, frame, infill and hardware fabricated in the workshop.
Prepare & finish
Blasting or preparation, then powder coating or protective coating in the chosen colour.
Complete / install
The gate is hung or set up and checked for smooth manual operation. Where automation has been requested for a suitable gate, operator and control equipment can also be incorporated.
Practical considerations
Worth knowing before you enquire.
- Gate style, span and weight drive the frame design and hardware selection.
- Coastal properties benefit from a finishing system chosen for salt exposure.
- Photographs of the opening with rough measurements are enough to begin a quote.
- Existing gates can often be repaired or refinished rather than replaced.
- Automation is optional. Where it is wanted, gate weight, slope, opening width and available power are assessed separately.
Frequently asked
Common questions.
Do you make sliding and swing gates?+
Yes. Sliding gates and single or double swing gates are fabricated to suit the opening, then finished in the workshop.
Do you make custom slat gates?+
Yes. Horizontal slat gates are made in steel or suitable aluminium slat-style systems, sized and spaced to suit the property.
Can you powder coat the gate?+
Yes. Gates are prepared and powder coated in-house, or given a protective coating system where the environment calls for it.
Does Westforge make custom gates?+
Yes. Custom sliding, swing, driveway, pedestrian, commercial and industrial gates are fabricated to suit the opening, then prepared and finished in the same workshop.
Can you make a gate without automation?+
Yes. Most gates are supplied as manual sliding, swing or pedestrian gates. Automation is optional and only included where you want it.
Is gate automation required?+
No. Automation is never required. Westforge fabricates manual and automated gate systems, and automation can be included where it suits the gate, the site and the customer requirement.
Can you repair or refurbish an existing gate?+
Often yes — repair, re-hanging, straightening and refinishing are assessed from photographs and measurements.
Can Westforge automate the gate as well?+
Yes. Gate automation is a Westforge Works service. Automation options can be included for suitable gate systems, subject to the gate, site conditions, power and project scope. It is normally scoped as an option within a gate project rather than a standalone service.
Who provides gate automation — Westforge Works or Halo Security WA?+
Gate supply and gate automation are Westforge Works services. Halo Security WA is a separate operating brand under the same parent company, Forgepoint Operations Pty Ltd, covering its own security and property-protection products. Gate enquiries should come to Westforge Works.
