What Are Metal and Wood Gates?

Traditional metal and wood gates typically consist of wood slats or panels framed by a steel or aluminum structure. While this approach offers strength and style, the wood components still require ongoing care—staining, sealing, and occasional replacement due to moisture and UV exposure.

MetalGrain redefines the category by crafting complete gate systems from powder-coated metal, then applying realistic woodgrain finishes through sublimation. The result: a gate that looks like wood, performs like metal, and lasts for years.

Benefits of MetalGrain’s Wood-Look Metal Gates

1. Authentic Wood Appearance: Choose from cedar, walnut, oak, teak, or ashen woodgrain finishes—engineered with high-definition sublimation for texture and realism.

2. All-Metal Durability: Made from aluminum or galvanized steel, MetalGrain gates resist rust, rot, cracking, and fading in any climate.

3. Low Maintenance: Unlike real wood gates, ours require no staining, painting, or sealing—just occasional rinsing.

4. Fully Integrated Design: Match your gate to our fencing systems with seamless slats, posts, rails, and trim for a clean, modern finish.

5. Custom Sizes and Hardware Options: Available in swing or sliding configurations, MetalGrain gates can be customized to fit your space with compatible locks, latches, and hinges.
