Why aluminium

Why choose aluminium gates?

Melbourne can give you four seasons in one day. Your driveway gate has to put up with all of it, every day.

Doesn’t rust, easy to live with

Aluminium forms a thin natural oxide layer that protects it, so it handles Melbourne’s rain and humidity without drama.

  1. Measure

    We visit your property and measure the entrance: width, slope, and the space the gate needs to open or slide.

  2. Design and fabricate

    We design and fabricate the gate frame and infill in our Kilsyth workshop to match your fencing and site.

  3. Install

    We install the gate and, if requested, fit or prepare it for automation.

  • Great for custom and ornate designs
  • Needs proper galvanising, primer and powder coat

Gate automation · What to ask before you buy

What affects the cost?

Size, design, finish, sliding or swing, and whether you automate. Aluminium gates often cost a bit more upfront than a simple steel gate of the same size but need less upkeep. We quote after we measure.

Alex built a magnificent deck for our home. His excellent workmanship and expertise is very evident. I enjoyed great communication and customer care throughout the build. I highly recommend Adoni for anyone considering steel fabrication (fencing, gates, balustrades etc) or a decking project for peace of mind, service quality and delivery on time. A job well done, thank you!

FAQs

Aluminium gate questions, answered

Do aluminium gates rust?

No. Aluminium doesn’t rust: it forms a thin natural oxide layer that protects it. The powder coat finish can slowly age in harsh sun or near the coast, and a wash with mild soapy water a couple of times a year is usually all it needs.

How long do aluminium gates last?

A well-made aluminium driveway gate can last 25 years or more. Real results depend on build quality, coating, location and care.

Are aluminium gates good near the bay?

Yes. Salt in the air speeds up corrosion on steel, but aluminium shrugs off most of that, so it is usually the safer bet for bayside homes. A quick rinse to wash off salt every few months helps any gate.

Aluminium or steel driveway gates?

It depends on how you want the gate to look and feel and where you live. Steel is tougher; aluminium is light, low-maintenance and doesn’t rust. Our aluminium vs steel guide has the full comparison.

Are aluminium gates secure?

Aluminium is solid for everyday residential use, and steel has the edge on pure toughness. For most homes the lock, hinges and motor matter as much as the material.

Can aluminium gates be automated?

Yes. We can build the gate automation-ready now and fit a motor later, or automate it from day one. A lighter gate means the motor works less hard.

How much do aluminium gates cost in Melbourne?

It depends on the size, design, finish, sliding or swing, and whether you automate. Aluminium gates often cost a bit more upfront than a simple steel gate of the same size but need less upkeep. We measure on site and give you a straightforward quote.
