Gate with a Permanent Crown and Coat of Arms (BP184)

BP184 is made for a family home with a history, or one about to start one.

A permanent crown spans the opening above the leaves, and at its centre sits the family coat of arms, picked out in gold.

Gates with a fixed crown are usually rich and palatial, full of blacksmith ornament, metalwork and acanthus, and this one is no exception.

Your crest, exactly as drawn

We forge coats of arms precisely to the pattern you send us, and we can place them anywhere on the gate: in the crown, on the leaves or on the pillars. More ideas are collected in our wrought iron gates and fences section.

Classicism with a Renaissance accent

BP184 is a double swing gate in a classicist style with Renaissance touches. The fields between the posts are filled with spans of scrolls and plant accents, light rather than heavy. Above the arched top of the leaves runs the fixed crown, and beneath it the coat of arms presides over the whole entrance.

Despite the rich ornament, the gate is practical: the open pattern gives good visibility, it works with masonry and metal fences alike, and the protective finish means it needs no impregnation or regular maintenance to keep its looks. It suits classical architecture best, though we have also seen it look striking in front of a modern house.

Swing leaves under a fixed crown

Despite the generous size of the leaves, they open very lightly and smoothly, and the clear width of the opening lets you drive in comfortably and safely. The hand-forged materials combine a fine appearance with high strength and full resistance to the weather, and the gate protects the property from uninvited guests while keeping a good view of what happens beyond it.
