It’s always exciting when someone contacts you with a project and they let you off leash to built whatever you like. That was the case with these two gates. The owners contacted me when they purchased a new house in the awesome Biltmore area of Phoenix. I stopped in to check it out and I got hit with an idea right away. I wanted a classic Phoenix type style with a few twists. Installing anything in cement and stone walls requires a bit of imagination and that’s always the fun part. I think the design of both gates goes very well with the surrounding space…somewhat blending in, instead of attraction too much attention. Both gates are built from heavy angle iron with a woven wire mesh for the centers.
