Forged sliding gates: a visiting card of a private house

Sliding gates with forging are becoming increasingly popular, since with their help you can perfectly decorate the site, bring an element of elegance and exclusivity to it. However, the main task of any design of this type is to ensure a comfortable entry and exit of cars. The retractable door type does an excellent job of this, as it is functional and easy to use. Its main advantages are:

Universality. The size of the plot, the density of its development or the presence of plants near the gate do not matter.
Individual approach. The presence of forged elements indicates that the customer has the opportunity to choose the optimal design or provide their own sketches, according to which the craftsmen will make the product.
Excellent durability, as well as a long service life. Forged sliding gates are made of the highest quality metal, so they are not damaged by temperature changes, natural phenomena, as well as small impacts.

Gate closure is made of metal, wood, polycarbonate and other materials. It all depends entirely on your wishes. Our managers will help you choose the best option, based on the budget, the exterior of the house and the landscape design of the site.

Choosing the forged gate correctly

Our company offers dozens of different options for retractable structures that differ in materials and design. Thanks to this, each customer gets the opportunity to choose the most suitable option. Pay particular attention to the forged elements of the sliding gates, as they can emphasize and complement the general concept of the site design.

A unique characteristic of forging is that it goes well with a stone, metal and wooden fence, as well as various architectural styles. The gate can be located both with the gate and separately. We recommend the last option to customers, as it is more practical and attractive from an aesthetic point of view.

Forged gates are manufactured using hot forging technology, so that even thin parts have excellent strength and resistance to vandalism.

Price forged sliding gates

Flexible and affordable pricing is one of the reasons to contact our company. The cost of the final product is lower than that of our competitors, since for many years we have been cooperating with leading, trusted suppliers of materials.

The cost of the product with installation for each customer is calculated individually, since it depends on a large number of factors. The main ones are:

The length, width and height of the gate. The higher these indicators, the higher the cost of the gate with a gate.
Type of sliding gate mechanism. They can be with both automatic and mechanical rollback.
The complexity of the forging, as well as the number of forged elements.
Sewing material. Among the available options are metal, various types of wood and polycarbonate.

Automatic sliding gates allow you to open and close using the remote control. They work quickly and silently, and also do not require special maintenance.

You can also order combined gates with us. Their cost is lower, since a combination of forged and welded metal structures is used in the manufacture. Such products are optimally suited for suburban suburban areas.

Forged items are always in fashion

Exterior designers constantly bring something new, and only forging remains relevant, as it did 100 years ago. This is quite natural, since professionally performed work is a real art that attracts the eyes of passers-by.

Beautifully designed gates, a gate and a fence can tell a lot about the nature and status of the owner of the house, so their choice is an extremely important stage. Our designers will help you translate the most daring ideas into reality and turn an ordinary fence into a masterpiece.

Forged sliding gates can also be used for garages, storage and other commercial premises. Buying sliding door constructions for legal entities is as simple with us as it is for private customers.

General characteristics of the model

Forged designs, as well as options with the addition of forged parts, are the perfect complement to a massive and sophisticated fence. Such models are classic and due to this do not go out of fashion. Forged products have always attracted attention with sophisticated shapes, voluminous decorations and the elegance inherent in metal.

Artistic options created according to an individual sketch are especially appreciated. The price of such products is available only to a wealthy customer. Serial production gates - the factory stamping method - are more affordable, but devoid of originality compared to designer models. Forging gives the exterior chic, sophistication and personality.

Design description

Retractable models will help to save free space in the yard, so they are often chosen for installation on the territory of small households. Quality gates combine the grace of forging and the convenience of a sliding system.

What the design consists of:

Support - a special support tab for the entire gate mechanism.
Frame - product frame.
Internal sewing - this part consists of forging and decorative elements. Filling topics and materials are diverse. Sewing may consist of a single web or individual parts interconnected. Additional materials are also used, for example, professional sheet. With its help create a continuous canvas covering the courtyard and objects placed on it from prying eyes.
Accessories. Various parts for the operation of the mechanism.

Regardless of the manufacturer, this kit will remain unchanged and required. Automation makes the process of using the gate more convenient and functional. Not present in the design of all models.

Artistic forged parts

Considering the main parts of all the constructions, from the point of view of aesthetics, the additional decorative elements that fill the gate leaves are more important. Designers place details in a chaotic manner or create an original composition from them. Specialists highlight the most popular and common design options. Forged parts can have a variety of appearance and vary in size. Common topics: animals, birds, ethnic patterns, floral motifs, geometric shapes. For greater expressiveness, the reliefs are covered with paint. As a rule, these are golden, silver and copper tones. Sometimes forged parts are covered with snow-white paint.

Gate closure

Specialists in the field of decoration offer various options for sewing. A natural tree with an exquisite canvas made of stylish decorative metal elements looks original and unusually fresh. This option is ideal for log homes and cottages. Ironwork turns the gate into a monumental design. Gates are visually deprived of lightness and weightlessness, but they become more reliable. A great option for combining landscape design with stones and metal compositions.

Combined options combining forged gates with profiled sheets and polycarbonate will protect private property from prying eyes. Profiled sheet is a durable and thin material that ideally coexists with forged structures. Polycarbonate may have a transparent or translucent texture. This material is made in various colorful colors.

Advantages and disadvantages of forged sliding gates

Any design has individual pros and cons. They are associated with the type of mechanism, appearance, material and other individual features.

Benefits

Mounting. The installation process is convenient and easy. Experts assure that it is possible to carry out installation even before installing the fence. It is also possible to carry out assembly of the structure even after the full installation of the main fence. Choose any convenient option.
Individuality. Given the popularity of this type of gate, the service of manufacturing custom designs is widespread. Using sketches and wishes of the client, experienced craftsmen create original compositions, which allows to realize the most daring creative ideas. Many works deserve to be called contemporary works of art.

Appearance. High aesthetic qualities are an undeniable advantage of forged gates. They attract the attention of everyone who passes by. This design will not go unnoticed by the guests of your home. From season to season, forging remains at the peak of popularity.
Practicality. If properly looked after, the gates will stand for several decades without losing their beauty. Practicality, reliability, long service life - all these are characteristics of forged gates. Designs are not afraid of the vagaries of the weather and will protect you and your property from intruders from year to year.
Universality. Experts from the field of exterior decoration note that products of this type harmoniously fit into various design areas - from classic to modern styles.

Automation. At the request of the client, sliding gates can be equipped with a special automatic system. This will allow you to open and close them remotely. Automation is chosen by customers who prefer practicality and convenience.
Ergonomics This advantage is directly related to the type of gate opening. The canvas is pushed to the side, along the fence, not taking up free space. They are installed on the territory of both spacious and compact courtyards.

Disadvantages

All the deficiencies of these designs are associated with the type of sliding mechanism. The length of the fence installed next to it should be enough for the opening (retracting) sash. Near the fence, where the rollback system is laid, there should not be extra objects and plants. Otherwise, it may complicate or disable the sliding mechanism. Many mistakenly believe that when in contact with water, for example, after rain or snow, forged gates lose their appearance and practicality. This is not true. The design and decorative elements are processed with special compounds that protect them from negative external influences. New solutions will not only protect metal products, but also give them a more expressive appearance.

Choosing the right gate

High-quality forged gates cost a lot. Their choice is a complex process.

Before purchasing, it is strongly recommended that you familiarize yourself with the advice from specialists:

Each buyer is looking for the best possible offer, but a suspiciously low price should alert. Forging, especially manual forging, cannot be cheap.
Gates with large decorative elements will fit perfectly into the design of spacious courtyards. Refuse from large-scale designs, hung with a large number of elements, if we are talking about decorating small houses.
If you want the gate to become a key element of the exterior, opt for openwork gates with original decorative forged details. They can be painted with gilding or silver paint. This color will fit perfectly into the classic decor.
Functionality is of the utmost importance. Automatic systems are more expensive than standard models, but they make it possible to control the gate from a distance.

What determines the cost?

The final price depends on many factors:

the material from which the sewing and additional elements are made,
the work of an artist, kovaly or a blacksmith, when it comes to custom-made products,
complexity of elements and fittings,

the use of additional materials for processing and painting,
gate sizes
the presence of an automatic system that will require additional costs for installation and operation - the energy consumption will increase slightly.

Examples of forged gates and gates made by us

Such a product can last for centuries, even if created from a metal or alloy that is vulnerable to corrosion. For this, various external coatings were invented - you just need to monitor the state of protection and update it in time. For example, at a metal staircase, first of all, the coating on the steps and railings wears out, and at the gate - hinges and handles. But you need to inspect and inaccessible places.

Production of forged gates and gates

The first thing that guests or visitors will see is the gate. Made to order are guaranteed unique, and high-quality forging is always harmoniously combined with different materials: brick or masonry, wooden walls and fences. It is very likely that the forged gate, gate, gazebo, bench, staircase will last much longer than everything else in the estate.

The product can be hardened, of mild steel of various grades, as well as a combination of metals and alloys, with forged and cast parts. High strength removes most of the restrictions on design and construction - this applies to both shape and size. But in general, the larger the product, the more solid it weighs. Often, a ladder or gate is installed using a crane, because we are talking about weight in centners and even tons. And the foundation should be adequately massive: reinforced concrete columns, slabs, etc.

How to buy forged gates?

Yes, the opportunity to order forged gates, stairs or something else directly in Moscow is very convenient. And if it’s quality and inexpensive, it’s unbelievable. Turning to us, you can make a fairy tale a reality, and quite quickly and for a reasonable price.The entire range of products is displayed right on the site, clearly demonstrating that we are able to forge almost the entire estate. And even many elements of the house: porch, doors, visor, balcony, stairs, etc.

First you need to decide on the style of design by looking at the photo gallery of ready-made similar products. You can order a copy of the desired size, something similar or completely original version. That gate can be deaf or trellised, straight or arched - all this is practically a classic these days.

The same applies to style: classicism, high-tech, baroque, renaissance. Decorative elements can also be forged, but in general, everything looks like a real masterpiece of art.

Yes, it is almost completely manual work, high quality requires adequate qualifications and experience. The whole process is carried out in stages by our full-time specialists: from design to on-site installation. By the way, products with a family signature are now in fashion.

First, according to the description of the customer, a sketch is developed, after its approval - a full-fledged project with related documentation. Further, the product is made in metal, delivered and installed, put into operation. Everything is official, by agreement.

And finally, about the technical points. Who said forged gates should be archaic? Quite the contrary: they are able to provide a level of comfort for users no worse than the most modern designs of a similar purpose.

So, there is no need to push heavy shutters manually: you can equip the gate with an electric drive and control it remotely from a miniature remote control. Moreover, all this machinery will not be evident, even the cable and the drive itself can be hidden in the cavities of the structure or behind the decor. As an emergency, you can provide a mechanized drive or manual, but always use automation: press a button - the doors open, move in / out and press again - close. If you wish, you can automate even more: install sensors so that the gates “themselves” open and close when necessary, without requiring extra attention.

Retractable construction

The design of the sliding gates is quite reliable and convenient. Such a mechanism for opening gates is usually used in cases where there is not enough space at the entrance to the territory for using swing systems. The rollback system allows you to optimize the entry area to the house territory as much as possible.

The opening can be as wide as possible, since the system provides only one leaf.

The design of the sliding gates includes:

support for the whole mechanism (most often - channel),
frame - external frame for mounting the sash,
internal lining - with forging elements in the form of a wide variety of design elements - patterns, drawings and so on. In addition to forged parts, additional solid fragments can also be used to fill, which will allow you to fence yourself off from prying eyes,
elements of the working mechanism - rollers that provide sliding doors, catchers for stopping them, protective caps and much more,
automation elements - are not required, but with the help of an electric drive the gates will become much more functional.

Forging options

Forged gate elements are the most significant parts in the appearance of products. The variety of different design options is simply huge.

For example, the sewing can be made in the form of forged wood with the addition of lace lace metal elements around. Such a design will be very appropriate for the design of the gate near the log house.

Metal stitching makes the design more solid and reliable. Such products are perfect for any type of landscape design, and will also go well with stone fences.

Sewing from translucent polycarbonate sheets is also considered very relevant today - this material perfectly protects against extraneous noise from the street, but at the same time allows you to maintain a complete overview. And forged elements make the design easier, airy and elegant.

Popular and stylish elements of forging with ethnic motifs, silhouettes of animals, birds and mythical creatures (especially dragons) are considered today.

Forged at any time remain forged geometric patterns.

Advantages and disadvantages

Forged sliding gates, like any other fencing options, have their own characteristics, advantages and disadvantages.

Such gates have a lot of advantages, these include:

universality - products can be selected for openings of any size, you just need to provide enough space for the system to roll back,
convenient installation - you can install such a system at any time during the construction of the fence, since the installation is made in the space between the posts and does not interact with other elements of the fence,

possibility of individual production - you can order forged gates to order, then manufacturers will take into account all your requirements and wishes for the design of the system, you can also provide your own sketch according to which the products will be made,
beautiful and expensive appearance - emphasizes the status and prestige of the owner,
high quality, reliability and long service life - forged gates are made manually of high quality metal, the gate leaf has high stiffness and perfectly resists natural influences, as well as vandalism,

the ability to use a variety of coatings - modern coating options provide a wide selection of colors, and also perfectly protect the product material from negative environmental influences,
suitable for any design style - forged products harmoniously fit into both classic design and ultra-modern style,
the possibility of using automation - This functionality makes the system even more versatile and convenient to use.

There is only one drawback with sliding gates, it concerns only the design of the product.

The peculiarity of rollback systems is that for them it is necessary to allocate free space for rollback. Therefore, when buying a product, it should be noted that the sash should be one and a half times wider than the width of the opening itself, and therefore there should be enough free space where the gates will be rolled back.

For example, if the opening is planned to be made four meters wide, then the total length of the sash should be six meters. And, accordingly, there should be exactly the same amount of free space where the system will be shifted.

It is because of this feature that retractable systems are not suitable for everyone, they can be installed only if there is a sufficient amount of free space on the side of the sash.

Product Cost

The final cost of the finished product depends on many factors, namely:

varieties of sewing material - it can be made with profiled sheet, wood, metal, polycarbonate or have an “open” version without sewing,
the complexity of decorative forging - the complexity of the execution of decorative forged elements can be different, they are all done manually, and the cost of their manufacture is quite high,
individual design - if you want to order a personal sketch from the designer, you will need to allocate additional funds to pay for his work,
the size of the structure and the amount of materials used.

See how the forged gates are created in the next video.

Design

This type is used in areas where before entering there is not enough space to open the swing wings. That is why sliding gates are recommended to be installed where maximum optimization of the entrance space and the site in general is necessary.

Consists of a design of several elements.

Supporting mortgage. As a rule, it is the channel. It serves as a support for the whole mechanism.
Frame. Actually the external frame, which is necessary to collect the sash.
Internal sewing. This is where art forging is used, because the content can be completely different, both in drawing and design, and in material. At the same time, the filling of the frame can consist of forged elements alone (or a solid forged fabric) or have an additional continuous filling of various materials, used as protection from prying eyes.
Accessories for the working mechanism. This includes a whole set, the composition of which remains unchanged for all manufacturers:

Roller carriages for sash movement
lower and upper catchers, used to stop the gate,
upper roller for directional movement,
knurling roller
plugs protecting the mechanism.

Also in the hardware kit may include rackHowever, this is only necessary if automation of the entire structure is required.
Automation. This item is not required at all. However, automation will help make the gate even more functional, that is, the installation of additional elements and an electric drive.

Artistic forging

In addition to the basic structural elements, the most significant for external aesthetics is the actual filling of the sash. It is here that the greatest variety of design options appears.

First of all, various sewing options are diverse. Wood with openwork made of original metal elements perfect for fencing areas with log houses.

Metal stitching allows you to give the construction a greater monumentality, make it more reliable. Such gates fit into any landscape design and look great with stone fences.

Recently becoming popular sewing with translucent polycarbonate sheets. In addition to the fact that such an addition of art forging gives the whole structure some lightness and even airiness, polycarbonate performs a useful function of noise protection, practically without hiding the courtyard and giving the owners an excellent overview.

Forged elements themselves can have a huge variety of motifs and variations - ethnic motifs, natural patterns, outlines of animals and birds, strict clear geometric patterns and so on.

This article is an overview of sliding structures from Alutech.

Description of the manufacturing procedure

First of all, it is necessary think over the design and prepare a sketch of the future design. There may be several sketch options. The first is just a sketch aimed at translating a design idea into material expression.

Next stage - careful step-by-step sketch design taking into account the size and configuration of the sash. All the artistic elements that make up the canvas should be executed on paper in compliance with scale.

In this case, two variants of a scaled sketch are necessary - a general plan-diagram of the arrangement of elements relative to each other with connecting elements and a separate diagram of each component.

After that, they proceed directly to the manufacturing process, that is, forging individual elements or sections. The next step will be assembly in one piece according to the initial sketch. To do this, use welding.

When the process is complete, you must clean all welding spots, remove seams and sag. After that, the surface can be prepared for painting or varnishing and carry out the final stage.

Installation is carried out only after completion of the entire manufacturing process and painting.

Installation Procedure Description

The general installation scheme is quite simple and takes place in several stages. Since the gate is not only one leaf, the installation steps are as follows.

Preparation of support pillars.
Foundation pouring.
Carrying out wiring in case of installation of automation.
Making the gates themselves.
Installation

Most stages of installation of forged sliding doors have their own characteristics.

The ideal option for supports is stone or brick.
The foundation is prepared for the foundation and poured on only one side (rollback) for the support beam.
It is important that the wiring is done as high as possible.
Making the sash is the most crucial moment. Painting is carried out before installation, however, after the process is completed - the forged elements or the web are attached to the frame of the frame.
Next, the roller carriages are correctly and accurately installed. They must be very reliable, since the weight of the sash with forged metal elements is higher than that of other materials.
Then, the sash is actually installed and all the final stages - the end roller, upper and lower catchers, and so on.

Features of designs with a gate

Often the gate is made as a separate section, and, accordingly, is established in the same way. This requires additional support from the side opposite the direction of the rollback.

However, there are times when the gate must be built into the door leaf. To do this, even at the stage of creating the sketch, it is necessary to arrange the artistic elements in such a way that they create several symmetrical sectors.

Then you can make a more complex frame, which provides for the possibility of additional installation of loops. In the manufacture of all stationary sections are sewn up immediately, and the gate, as an additional part, is sewn up and installed last.

What are the prices made up of?

The pricing feature of the forged sliding gates is that a rather large number of elements are the components of the final cost.

Sewing Material - sheet metal, wood, profiled sheets, polycarbonate or the complete absence of such material when the gates are “open”.
The complexity of decorative elements and their combinations. Here, only manual manufacturing is used, and the work of blacksmithing masters is rather highly paid. It becomes clear that it’s almost nonsense to buy cheap forged sliding gates.
Create an individual sketch - when contacting a designer or artist.
Sash size affects the amount of materials.
Separately, the cost is considered retractable fittings and automation kit.
The cost of materials for processing and coating of metal.

In the following video, an example of a design equipped with an automation system is shown:
