Arch Top Privacy Fence with Welded Steel Gate in Kempsville

When you’re ready for your new fence — this is what “ready” looks like. A treated arch top privacy fence with a custom welded steel frame gate, installed in Kempsville.

The wood fence and the steel gate are a combination that works particularly well for driveway entries and larger openings. Wood privacy panels are beautiful and warm. But large wood gates — especially double gates spanning 8 to 14 feet — can be heavy, prone to sagging, and hard to keep swinging true over time. A welded steel frame solves that problem.

Why Steel Frame Gates for Large Openings

A steel frame gate uses a welded metal structure as the skeleton, with wood pickets applied to the face. You get the look of a wood gate with the structural integrity of metal.

No sagging. Steel doesn’t sag or rack the way a wood-framed gate does over time, especially in wide spans.

Holds weight. Wood pickets add significant weight to a large gate. A steel frame carries that load without the hinge hardware slowly tearing out of the posts.

Stays true. The gate closes cleanly year after year — not after a few seasons of swelling and settling that makes wood-framed gates start to drag.

For driveways, RV access points, and any gate over about 6 feet wide, we often recommend steel framing.

The Arch Top Detail

The arch on the fence panels and gate gives the whole installation a custom, finished appearance. It’s a relatively small detail in terms of materials but a big one visually — the curved top line looks intentional and refined rather than utilitarian.
