Need security gates to my front door and kitchen door. Last contractor botched it. Front door is arched at top and door is recessed, so security gate needs to have arch as well to be able to open fully or be not quite as tall as door itself or expand and swing? Hinges should be same side as door Should be simple to figure out. I need suggestions. Last one could not open far enough to get furniture out!! Had to cut it off!! Back door opens in. Security gate should have hinges same side as door to open fully. Not like previous contractor! Unfortunately I am not there, I am locked down in another country so must rely on a reliable person. The gates should be hot dipped please, not rusted steel. Maybe expanding aluminium gates - need advise. Thanks,

I need custom pedestrian gates made to replace wooden gates which are failing due to age. The main house is wood based so 2 gates need to be made with a post cemented on that side to ensure privacy. So sheet non rust metal outside cover is likely the best means. Also I need gates painted black. I also need one gate at the front of the house that has entrances. I want a padlock on each gate to secure the property when no tenants are occupying the property.
