Gate Supply for Contractors: Reliable Gates for Renovation Projects
t269-29

Gate supply for contractors works best when the metalwork manufacturer is involved early, measuring on site and approving a written drawing before production starts. Techno Kol Uzi makes gates to measure in its Tel Aviv factory, so each gate fits the opening and the client's design rather than a standard size. This keeps renovation schedules predictable and reduces rework on site.
Why contractors choose made-to-measure gates
Renovation projects rarely have perfect openings. Walls are out of square, old frames shift, and clients change their minds about style. Made-to-measure gates are built from the actual dimensions on site, so they fit the opening instead of forcing the opening to fit a catalog size.
For a contractor, this means fewer surprises during installation and fewer callbacks after handover. The gate arrives ready to hang, and the rest of the works can continue on schedule.
What we need from you before production
To start, send photos of the opening and the surrounding wall, along with any drawings or design references the client has chosen. Include the intended use: pedestrian, vehicle, or both, and whether the gate will be manual or electric.
- Photos of the opening from the front and side
- Approximate dimensions and the wall material
- Preferred finish and color
- Whether an automatic opener is needed
This information lets us prepare a clear quotation request and schedule an on-site measurement.
Measurement, drawing and client approval
Our team visits the site to measure the opening precisely and check how the gate will swing or slide. We then prepare a drawing and a written specification covering frame profile, infill, hinges or rollers, locks and finish.
The drawing goes to you and the client for approval. Making changes at this stage costs nothing in the workshop, which is why we treat this step as essential rather than a formality.
Production and finishing in our factory
Once the drawing is approved, the gate is cut, welded and assembled at our factory at 37 Rival Street, Tel Aviv, where we have worked in iron, aluminum and steel since 1945. Steel parts can be hot-dip galvanized for corrosion protection, and powder coating is available in a range of colors.
Finishing is done before delivery, so the gate arrives ready to install without on-site painting that could damage the wall or the client's new work.
Installation coordination on site
Gates should be installed after the wall and ground works are finished, or with the posts set correctly beforehand. We recommend agreeing on the installation date with the client and the other trades in advance.
- Confirm the post and wall condition before delivery
- Plan the access route for the gate panels
- Check that electrical supply is ready if an opener is fitted
Clear coordination prevents delays and protects both the new gate and the surrounding finishes.
Safety and standards for residential gates
Gates for homes and yards should be sturdy, well hung and safe for children and pedestrians. For railings and similar guarding elements in Israel, the reference is the SI 1142 standard, though exact dimensional requirements should always be checked with the project engineer.
Where a gate is part of an automated system, its safety features and clearances should also be confirmed with the installer and the engineer before final handover.
Frequently asked questions
Can you make a gate to fit a non-standard opening?
Yes, every gate is made to measure from the dimensions taken on site. Irregular or out-of-square openings are handled in the drawing stage.
Do you visit the site before making the gate?
Yes, we measure on site and check the swing or sliding path before preparing the drawing for approval.
Can the gate be galvanized or powder coated?
Steel gates can be hot-dip galvanized for corrosion protection and powder coated in a range of colors. Finishing is completed before delivery.
Do you supply gates for both private homes and building committees?
Yes, we supply gates for private homeowners, building committees, contractors, architects and interior designers.
Common mistakes to avoid
Ordering a gate before the opening is measured and the wall is finished is the most common error, leading to misfits and delays. Skipping the approved drawing stage also causes costly changes after production has started.
Our recommendation
Share photos and dimensions early, and get the client to approve the written drawing before production begins. Agree on the installation date after the wall and posts are ready.
Summary
Made-to-measure gates from a factory with on-site measurement and approved drawings give contractors a smoother renovation process and fewer surprises.
