Forged Full Gate with Greek Motifs (BP61)

BP61 is a forged gate with simple but elegant ornament, for people who value privacy in their own backyard. Diamond-quilted panels with studs fill the leaves, and a forged ring sits at the centre like a door knocker.

The details mix features of Greek architecture with traditional blacksmith elements. We make it in many sizes and versions, one-sided or double-sided.

Quilted panels above, lattice below

Quilted, diamond-shaped panels fill the upper part of the leaves, with fine lattice and scrolls in the lower part. Vertical pilasters with rows of rivets divide the gate and add solidity, the side posts carry a stepped Greek motif, and a light crest of scrolls runs along the arched top.

Relief that catches the light

The gate screens the property completely, and its relief infill keeps the dark surface from looking monotonous, because the light picks out every stud and crossing. The wicket beside the gate repeats the same pattern. We make it to measure and hot-dip galvanize it. The quilted panels are a feature we use on several full wrought iron gates, as they add depth to a closed surface.
