The Job
What we built
An old wrought iron gate had rusted through at the base and dropped on its hinges. We cut out the failed sections, let in new bar to match the original scrollwork, then squared the frame back up.
The gate was shot blasted, treated for rust and repainted, and rehung on new heavy duty hinges so it swings true again.
