Gate CAD Drawings for Architects | Techno Kol Uzi
t269-34

Architects can request gate CAD drawings as part of the design package, showing plan, elevation, sections, frame profiles, hinge and post locations, and finish details. Techno Kol Uzi prepares a written specification and drawing after on-site measurement, and the client approves it before production starts.
Why architects need gate CAD drawings
A gate is often the first element visitors see, and it has to fit the opening, the wall structure and the overall facade language. Clear CAD drawings let you coordinate the gate with paving levels, drainage, lighting and planting before anything is built.
Drawings also give the contractor and the client a common reference, which reduces disputes on site. When the gate is shown at true scale with dimensions and materials, questions get answered on paper instead of during installation.
What a useful gate drawing package includes
A complete package usually covers the elevation of the gate, a plan view showing posts and swing or sliding direction, and sections through the frame and infill. Details of the joints, the fixing to the wall or post and the finish should be shown clearly.
- Overall elevation with critical dimensions
- Plan and swing or slide clearance
- Frame and infill profile sections
- Post, hinge and fixing details
- Finish and coating specification
How we work from your brief
The process starts with an inquiry that includes photos and any existing drawings of the opening. We then visit the site to measure the opening, check the wall construction and note levels, slopes and obstructions that affect the design.
From these measurements we prepare a drawing and a written specification. You review it, we make the requested changes, and once you approve the final version, the gate goes into production at our factory on Rival Street in Tel Aviv.
Technical points to agree early
Some decisions are easier to make at the drawing stage than later. Gate weight, span, the type of wall or post it attaches to, and whether it is manual or automatic all influence the frame design and the fixings.
For railings and guarding elements, the Israeli standard SI 1142 applies. We do not quote exact values from memory: the relevant dimensions are confirmed with your structural or safety engineer and shown on the drawing.
Finishes and coatings shown on the drawing
Specifying the finish on the drawing avoids confusion later. Options include hot-dip galvanizing for steel and powder coating in a colour chosen from a sample or RAL reference. The specification should name the coating system, the colour and the area it applies to.
Aluminum and stainless steel components have their own finish requirements, and these should be listed separately so the fabricator and the painter know exactly what is expected.
Working with us as your fabricator
Techno Kol Uzi has been manufacturing iron, aluminum, glass and stainless steel works since 1945, and today the third generation of the family runs the factory. We produce gates to measure for private homes, building committees, contractors and interior designers.
Because we fabricate in-house, we can review your drawings for manufacturability and suggest practical changes before production. Installation is coordinated with the site schedule so the gate arrives when the opening is ready.
Frequently asked questions
Can you work from my own CAD drawing?
Yes, we can start from your drawing and check it against the measured opening. We will flag any dimensions or details that need adjustment for fabrication and installation.
Do I need to visit the site before the drawing is made?
Yes, an on-site measurement is part of our process so the drawing matches the real opening. It also lets us check the wall, levels and fixing points.
Which file formats do you provide?
We discuss the format you need when you send your inquiry, so the drawings can be used in your design software. Please tell us your preferred format at the start.
Who approves the drawing before production?
The client approves the final drawing and specification before any production begins. Changes are made before approval, which keeps the fabrication schedule clear.
Common mistakes to avoid
Architects often leave out the finish, the swing clearance and the fixing details, which causes changes on site. Confirm these items in the specification before the drawing is approved.
Our recommendation
Send us the opening dimensions, photos and any structural constraints at the start, and ask for the finish to be written on the drawing. This saves a revision round and keeps the gate consistent with the rest of the facade.
Summary
Clear gate CAD drawings with a measured site survey and a written specification make coordination and approval faster. Techno Kol Uzi produces them as part of a process that ends with factory fabrication and installation.
