Fort Lauderdale Gate Pros provides professional aluminum gates in Fort Lauderdale, FL for residential and commercial properties across Broward County. Aluminum gates are the correct answer for most waterfront and near-water property in Fort Lauderdale, and we say that as a shop that makes more margin selling steel. Aluminum does not rust. In a city with miles of Atlantic beachfront and a canal system long enough to have earned the Venice comparison, that single property outweighs almost every argument for anything else. The metal is roughly a third the weight of steel, which means smaller hinges, less strain on the operator, longer gearbox life and a battery backup that carries more cycles during a storm outage. A marine-grade alloy with a properly cured architectural powder coat will hold colour and finish for decades in an environment where a painted steel gate needs attention every few years. The honest trade-off is stiffness, and this is where cheap aluminum gates earned their reputation. Extruded aluminum flexes more than steel per unit of section, so a wide leaf built from thin residential-grade extrusion will bow and rattle in the first serious blow. We handle it with heavier structural extrusions, welded rather than screwed corners on frames we fabricate, and internal stiffeners inside long bottom rails. Past about ten feet of leaf we will normally steer you to a dual swing or a slide gate rather than one wide leaf, because wind load does not negotiate and neither does physics. Alloy and fastener selection matter more here than most places. We specify marine-grade alloys on direct-exposure properties and stainless fasteners throughout, because a stainless screw in an aluminum frame in salt air is a controlled situation and a plated steel screw in the same hole is a rust stain waiting to run down your new gate. Style range is no longer a compromise: flat-top and arched picket, horizontal slat, louvered privacy, mixed aluminum-and-composite panels and matching pedestrian gates, in blacks, bronzes and wood-grain textured coatings that read like timber from the sidewalk and never need staining. Aluminum is also our default for pool-area and side-yard pedestrian gates, where Florida barrier requirements mean self-closing and self-latching hardware that has to survive chlorine and rain. Repairs are straightforward: bent pickets replaced individually, sagging leaves re-squared, worn hinges and latches swapped for stainless. What we will not do is weld a coated aluminum gate and hand it back unfinished, because a bare heat-affected weld on aluminum looks wrong forever and the coating lifts around it inside a year.
With 15+ years of experience, our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — wrought iron and ornamental steel fabrication, marine-grade powder-coated aluminum, cantilever and roller slide gates, LiftMaster, DoorKing and FAAC operators, Class I-IV operator classifications, UL 325 entrapment protection — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Fort Lauderdale and nearby communities including Pompano Beach, Oakland Park, Wilton Manors, Lauderdale-by-the-Sea.

Materials, equipment and how we do aluminum gates
The difference between aluminum gates that lasts and aluminum gates that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with wrought iron and ornamental steel fabrication, marine-grade powder-coated aluminum, cantilever and roller slide gates, LiftMaster, DoorKing and FAAC operators, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.
Every Fort Lauderdale job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. 15+ years of gate work in Broward County means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.
