Gates made for Tipton

Tipton is canals, old works and housing packed in between, so access for fitting is often tighter than the job itself. Driveway gates, side gates, railings and security grilles measured, fabricated and fitted across Tipton and the DY4 postcodes around it, straight from the workshop on Hayes Lane.

WHAT WE MAKE HERE

Ironwork in Tipton

Tipton is heavy with trading estates, yards and works units, so most of what we fabricate there is site gates, fencing and lockable access gates built for daily use rather than for a front garden. In practice most of what we are asked for around Tipton is yard gates, with everything else on the list available alongside it.

ASKED AND ANSWERED

Working in Tipton

What do you make for customers in Tipton?

Across Tipton (DY4) it is mostly yard gates, site fencing, unit security gates and domestic side gates. Tipton is heavy with trading estates, yards and works units, so most of what we fabricate there is site gates, fencing and lockable access gates built for daily use rather than for a front garden. Everything is measured on site before anything is cut, because openings around here are almost never the size people expect them to be.

Do you charge extra to come out to Tipton?

No, the travel is in the price. Tipton is about 9 km from the workshop on Hayes Lane in Stourbridge, well inside the patch we cover every week. What changes the price is the opening: the width, the height, whether there are posts to hang from and how much detail is in the ironwork.

Do you work in Tipton regularly?

Yes. Tipton is canals, old works and housing packed in between, so access for fitting is often tighter than the job itself. We are based on Hayes Lane in Stourbridge and cover the Black Country and the West Midlands as standard, so Tipton is normal week work rather than a special trip.

Does the type of property in Tipton change the job?

Yes, mostly in scale and in how hard the gate gets used. Yards and units around Tipton need heavier sections, bigger hinges and drop bolts that will still find the socket after a year of being kicked shut, because a site gate gets opened forty times a day by people in a hurry. Fitting is the other difference: a yard is open while the work happens, so it gets planned around deliveries and working hours rather than done whenever suits us.

How long does a gate take from first call to fitting in Tipton?

Measuring is usually within a few days of the call, and most gates are fabricated and fitted within a few weeks of that. Tipton is a short run from the workshop, so neither the measuring visit nor the fitting is difficult to arrange. Where steel posts have to be concreted in we let them go off properly before hanging the gates, which can mean coming back a second time.

Can you repair a gate in Tipton rather than replace it?

Yes, and it is often the right answer. Dropped leaves, worn hinges, posts that have moved and latches that no longer meet are all repairs. Because we fabricate gates ourselves we can put new steel into an old one instead of selling you a new set, and if it genuinely is beyond saving we will tell you that too.

Can you match existing gates or railings in Tipton?

Usually we can get very close. Send a photo or let us look at what is there and we will match the bar spacing, height and top detail so a replacement section reads as part of the same run. On very old cast work an exact match in fabricated steel is not always possible, and we will show you the difference before you commit rather than after.
