What Happens After Ordering?
A simple guide to what happens after you place your order
1. Your Order Is Confirmed
Once full payment is received and your written confirmation of sizes, style and specification, your order is officially booked into our system.
You’ll receive an Order Confirmation email summarising everything.
2. Your Gates Enter Production
Your bespoke steel gates now move into our manufacturing schedule.
During this stage we:
- Cutting and fabricate the steel frame
- Complete all welding and cleaning work
- Send the gate for Hot Dip Galvanising
- Prepare the gates for powder coating
- Order any automation components (if applicable)
This stage is highly skilled and carried out by our in‑house team.
3. Powder Coating
Once your gates return from galvanizing, the gates are cleaned of imperfections and sent for powder coating in your chosen colour.
This provides a durable, long‑lasting finish and is backed by our 5‑year powder‑coating guarantee.

Before your gates leave our workshop, we carry out:
- Structural checks
