    DRIVEWAY GATE #13-1
       
An equal number of full grids horizontally within the fixed width at 5.11" square per grid. To create an equal number of full grids vertically becomes more difficult. Here we were able to increase the width of the bottom rail to 11-1/2", up from the normal 8-1/2". The homeowner preferred this over the aesthetics of a row of partial grids along the bottom.

Driveway Gates #13 nestled in the rolling hills of west Marin County, California--flanked by matching gate and panel. Surface-mounted to a steel frame exposed on the property side and automated with above-grade motors.

CPW and the homeowners are currently considering designs for two wood lighting fixtures to seat themselves on top of the columns.

    DRIVEWAY GATE #13-3
      Grid Openings: 4.27"W x 5.09" H

Open flush-Joined grids that are slightly irregular, with the width being almost 1/4" more than the height. This also helped to provide equal grids vertically and horizontally across the gates. We also added to the normal width of the bottom rail, bringing it to 10".

Many communities, such as Kent-Woodlands in Marin County, CA, require that a certain percentage of the Driveway Gate is open, with a smaller percentage as solid. This is obviously to prevent a neighborhood with barrier-like gates fronting the properties.

There is a decided difference between grids that overlap, such as lattice, and grids that are joined flush.

Note: What we have here is an example of of successive layers of finish applied with the best of intentions. Read the labels: Most stains and pigmented finishes seal on the first coat and any additional coats simply lay on the surface and result in a splotchy finish.

As an Automatic Gate, showing the sub-Grade SEA motors. Mounted to pins that pivot, with the top and bottom pins perfectly aligned. The motor is under the steel plate on the bottom. More information on this type of automation motor can be found on the Specifications page. If you or your installer opt for the in-ground motor, CPW will call out the clearance and provide the plates top and bottom mortised into the gate.

The matching Pedestrian Gate style #60-1

An equal number of square grids horizontally is easily calculated within a fixed width. Vertically, however, and we are almost always left with the choice of either a partial grid at the bottom, or an extended grid height, or a bottom rail with an increased width. Here our bottom row of grids are the same size as the others by increasing the width of the bottom rail. But beware, in that this is not always possible and depends largely on the size of the remainder grid.
