Gate as described by Steve and shown in photo (copy included).

Opening is 42 inches wide and the height is 93 inches.  Hinges left and opens out.  Provisions for electrical latching.  Price includes all but hardware.  This means price covers all the materials, construction, finishing, and installation.  The metal grill may add $300.00.  The handle, the hinge pieces, and two rows of clavos,

a bit smaller than the 2 inch you were looking at, will add another $270.00.  I expect your total installed cost will be $2170.00.  I will give you wholesale prices on all my purchases plus 10% for my time and efforts securing the hardware.

 

Project as described includes all materials and labor except as noted…$1600.00

 

A deposit of 50% of the cost to assure timely scheduling of project…800.00 rc’d

Partial payment received ..                                                                500.00 rc’d

Balance of payment is to be made upon completion.

 

Normal completion is four weeks.

 

Occasionally changes need to be made for unforeseen circumstances.  All attempts

To notify you will be made.  In the event you are not able to be reached,

I will make a decision based on what we have discussed concerning your project.

     Gate is 38 inches wide by 82 inches high.  All framing on sides and arch is 5 inches wide.  Iron work should be 29 inches wide and main arch at top to bottom ironwork 26 inches total.  The outside verticle bars need to extend one inch above main grillwork and one inch below and they will be set into the wood framework and that is how entire iron work is held in place. This photo shows four verticle bars.  I only need the outside ones to support the work.  If any doubts as to if they are long enough, make them longer at top and I can cut them off.  Any questions I can answer either by mail or in person.  jm

Dear James,
We are so pleased with our beautifully crafted Mahogany Gate!
Your ideas and suggestion on achieving the "look" we wanted were exactly right, thank you.
The Mahogany wood gate with our El Dorado stone pillars make for an elegant entrance to our yard.
Thank you,
Mark and Melinda Wheeler
