YEARS OF EXPERIENCE
Custom Fencing & Gate Fabrication in Tulsa
Fencing and gates define boundaries, secure properties, and add character to residential and commercial sites. At Iron Werx we fabricate fences and gates tailored to your security needs and design preferences. Whether you need perimeter fencing with controlled access for a business, ornamental iron fencing for a historic home, or privacy gates for a residential property, our Tulsa-based fabrication shop has the experience and techniques to deliver.
Why Fencing & Gates Matter
A thoughtfully fabricated fence provides safety, privacy, and security while enhancing a property's curb appeal. For commercial properties, fencing controls access and protects assets; for residential clients, it creates private outdoor spaces and increases property value. Materials, post systems, finishes, and gate integration all affect longevity and performance. Professional fabrication and installation are essential to ensure the fence stands up to wind, soil movement, and daily use.

Installation Considerations & Best Practices
- Post embedment: Proper concrete embed depth is essential—typically dictated by fence height, local frost line, and wind loads.
- Alignment & drainage: We ensure proper grading to avoid gaps and to maintain aesthetics and function.
- Gate posts & reinforcement: Heavier gates require reinforced posts with deep footings and through-bolts to withstand movement.
- Coordination: For permit-required installations, Iron Werx will coordinate with local authorities or contractors on site plans and inspections
Pricing & Timeline
- Typical timeframes: Small residential fence projects can be completed within 2–4 weeks; larger commercial projects may require longer lead times for material ordering and coordination.
- Pricing factors: Linear footage, material choice, gate complexity, finishes, site prep, and permit needs.
Maintenance & Longevity
- Annual inspection of anchors, brackets, and panels.
- Lubricate hinges and operator components to extend life and ensure smooth operation.
- Clean stainless periodically to remove contaminants that may accelerate corrosion.
Common
Applications
- Typical timeframe: Custom gates typically take 3–6 weeks from deposit to installation depending on complexity, finish, and whether automation or electrical work is required.
- Pricing factors: Gate width, materials, automation, finish, site preparation (grading or concrete), and permit requirements for commercial installations.
