Differences Between Metal Driveway Gates

Steel Driveway Gates
Steel is the most common type of metal driveway gate. Steel is easier to work with than aluminum and cheaper to purchase. It’s also heavier than aluminum and tends to rust over time.
Aluminum Driveway Gates
Aluminum is the 2nd most common sort of metal driveway gate. It is lightweight but more difficult to work with than steel. It must be cleaned thoroughly prior to welding for best quality.
Other Types of Metal Driveway Gates
Copper
Copper is very beautiful although prohibitively expensive to work with. One viable alternative is to put a beautiful copper powder coat finish over steel:

Bronze
Bronze is another very expensive metal which makes it very unaffordable for most. An option is a bronze powder-coated finish over steel or aluminum substrate:

Corten Steel Metal Driveway Gates
Corten steel can also be used to create metal driveway gates. It’s about twice the price of mild steel, but is used for aesthetics when a self-sealing rustic finish is desired. There is some debate about exactly how much Corten steel actually seals, as some notable Corten steel art installations have suffered over time from the typical staining experienced with mild steel.
