Fencing and Gates, Common Questions
What Birmingham Property Owners Ask Us Most
Do you build both residential and commercial fencing and gates?
Yes. Iron City Iron Works handles fencing and gate projects for homeowners, property managers, commercial real estate owners, and construction contractors throughout the Birmingham metro area. Residential work often includes decorative metal fencing, driveway entry gates, child safety gates, and pet containment gates.

Our team has over ten years of professional welding experience and understands the compliance requirements that apply to both residential and commercial fencing projects across the Birmingham area.Can you fabricate a gate to fit a non-standard or unusual opening?
Yes. Because every gate Iron City Iron Works produces is custom fabricated, non-standard openings are not a problem. We build to your exact measurements and design requirements rather than fitting a stock product to your space.

Custom gate fabrication is one of the core capabilities that sets us apart from suppliers who rely on pre-made panels or catalog sizes.Do you offer pet containment and child safety gates?
Yes. Iron City Iron Works fabricates custom pet containment and child safety gates for residential clients throughout the Birmingham area.
