Ease, convenience and beauty for your property

Cantilever gates have an advantage over other gates in areas that experience snow and ice because the gate does not touch the ground.  This is possible because cantilever gates have rollers attached to large gate posts on the storage side of the fence. The storage is usually about half the length of the gate opening and allows the gate to open fully.  You may continue the overscallop arch into the storage or not.

When your driveway slopes up to your house, a swing gate often will struggle because they cannot fully open uphill.  Cantilever gates slide and store to the side of the opening.

The overscallop nature of these gates means the top rails are curved in a beautiful arch, making it look more attractive and ornate than a gate with flat rails. The presence of these gates gives a property a more high-class feel and can even increase its property value.  Even if your fence is a typical ornamental style with flat rails, it can be accented with an overscallop or arched gate.
