Made-to-measure for unique entrances. Our hand-forged designs match your style. We offer full automation and security options.

What sets our estate gates apart?

Our gates are hand-forged for architectural harmony

We measure and design every gate to fit your site, whether that’s a sweeping drive or a compact entrance.

We offer security features for rural properties

We add integrated access control, from simple locks to full automation and remote entry systems.

All our work is forged in-house

Every piece is handcrafted by our skilled blacksmiths, ensuring exceptional quality, attention to detail, and a truly bespoke finish.

Why choose our automated gates?

A bespoke automated gate installation from us does more than secure your entrance — it enhances your property with handcrafted metalwork designed around your style, space, and security needs. Every gate is forged by highly skilled blacksmiths in our workshop, ensuring a truly tailored finish that complements your home.

With a focus on automation, our gates combine traditional craftsmanship with modern convenience, giving you maximum security, privacy, and effortless access control.

John and his team did a great job! We came across Anvil Forge at Reading Waterfest and arranged for John to come to talk to us - long story short, they manufactured and installed railings on our patio. John and his team (Spencer and Aidan) did a great job - they were very friendly and kept us informed throughout.
