HOW MUCH DOES A CUSTOM METAL GATE COST IN ARIZONA?

Everything you need to know about custom metal gate pricing - materials, size, design complexity, and what to expect when getting a quote in Arizona.

Custom metal gates are one of the most impactful investments you can make for your property. But what does a custom metal gate actually cost in Arizona?

Key Pricing Factors

Several factors determine the cost of a custom metal gate:

1. Gate Size

A standard single driveway gate (10–12 feet wide) will cost significantly less than a double gate spanning 16–20 feet. Taller gates cost more due to material and structural requirements.

2. Material

  • Steel tube: Most cost-effective, very durable, excellent for powder coating
  • Wrought iron: More ornate options, slightly higher material cost
  • Aluminum: Lightweight, naturally corrosion-resistant, mid-range pricing
  • Stainless steel: Premium option, significantly higher cost
  • 3. Design Complexity

    A simple horizontal bar gate design costs less than a design with custom scrollwork, decorative panels, or laser-cut inserts. The more custom fabrication involved, the higher the cost.

    4. Finish

    Standard powder coat is included in most quotes. Custom colors or special finishes like patinas or galvanizing add to the cost.

    5. Automation

    If you want an automated gate opener, the automation system is typically a separate cost installed by a gate automation specialist. Basic single-gate automation starts around $800–$1,500.

    Typical Price Ranges in Arizona

  • Simple single pedestrian gate: $500–$1,500
  • Single driveway gate (8–12 ft): $1,500–$3,500
  • Double driveway gate (14–20 ft): $2,500–$6,000+
  • Custom ornate driveway gate: $4,000–$10,000+
  • Commercial entry gate system: $5,000–$20,000+
