RESIDENTIAL METAL GATES & FENCES
Custom steel and aluminum gates and fences for Toronto homes. Built to suit your property, with practical options for security, privacy, and everyday access.
A gate or fence should make your property easier to use while giving you the security and privacy you need. We build everything from decorative front gates to solid privacy panels, with materials and finishes suited to outdoor use in Ontario.
Weld Rich & Steel fabricates custom gates and fences in steel, wrought iron, aluminum, and Corten steel. Depending on the project, options can include reinforced posts, closer picket spacing, features that make climbing more difficult, gate automation, and solid infill panels. We work through these details with you so the finished design fits both your home and your daily needs.
Weld Rich & Steel builds custom wrought iron fences and ornamental metal fencing for homes across Toronto and the GTA. A fence can frame a front garden, follow a walkway, or connect with an entrance gate. We design it around your property and the look you want, whether that means simple pickets or more decorative ironwork.
We start by discussing where the fence will go, how much space is available, and how you use the entrance or yard. Site measurements and any drawings you provide help us plan the fence panels, posts, and framing. Picket patterns, decorative details, and matching gates are considered together, so the finished work looks consistent.
Before fabrication begins, we agree on the design, finish, and installation requirements. If you are planning other exterior metalwork at the same time, take a look at our custom railings and residential metal fabrication services. Coordinating these pieces can help bring the whole exterior together.
To get started, request a quote and send a few photographs, approximate dimensions, and any reference drawings you have. Let us know what matters most to you, such as privacy, the style of the ironwork, or access through a matching gate. Those details help us understand the project and discuss suitable options.

Materials & styles
The right material depends on the size of the gate or fence, the look you want, and how it will be used. Steel, wrought iron, aluminum, and Corten offer different options for strength, privacy, and appearance. Designs can be simple and modern or include traditional decorative details.
| Material / Component | Best Use | Durability | Key Features |
|---|---|---|---|
| Wrought Iron | Decorative gates, ornamental fencing | High | Scrollwork and custom profiles for decorative ironwork |
| Steel (Welded & Structural) | Driveway gates, perimeter fencing, reinforced frames | Very High | Strong welded frames with options for reinforcement and automation |
| Aluminum | Modern fence panels, lightweight gates | High | Does not rust like steel; suits horizontal or vertical slat designs |
| Corten (Weathering Steel) | Architectural fences, feature gates | Very High | Develops a natural patina for a weathered appearance |
| Privacy Panels (Solid Metal) | Full-privacy fences, side-yard barriers | Very High | Solid panels for privacy and a simple, continuous look |
| Hardware & Finishes | All gate & fence systems | High | Powder coating, galvanized steel options, hinges, locks, and hardware for gate automation |
Start with the areas you want to protect and how people will enter the property. Reinforced posts, welded frames, and suitable picket spacing help create a sturdy gate or fence.
Solid panels provide more privacy, while open pickets let you see through the fence. The height, spacing, and placement should also take local requirements into account.
Consider how you will open and lock the gate each day. Options include manual latches, keypad entry, and remote openers. Hinges and other hardware need to suit the gate’s size and weight.
The material and finish need to suit year-round outdoor exposure. Options include powder coating, galvanized steel, and aluminum. The choice of finish and ongoing care will affect how well the fence holds up.
