Naples, Florida Aluminum Driveway Gates
by JDR Metal Art
We bring world-class metal artistry to Southwest Florida. Forget the generic fence companies; get a gate that is a piece of art!
Project Showcase: Custom Doberman Themed Estate Gate
Here at JDR Metal Art we recently completed this 14′ set of traditional style aluminum driveway gates for a Naples, Florida Doberman kennel.

The framing is heavy duty 2″x 2″ x 3/16″aluminum square tubing and the pickets are 1″ x 1″ x 1/8″ square tubing. There is a section of solid sheet at the bottom of each gate panel, along with decorative lettering and palm trees on the arched panel tops.



Why Aluminum Beats Wood & Steel for Naples Entrances
In the high humidity and salt air of Southwest Florida, standard gate materials often fail. Wood gates—even expensive ones—are susceptible to warping, rot, and termite damage within just a few years. Traditional steel gates struggle against the corrosive coastal breeze coming off the Gulf.
At JDR Metal Art, we fabricate exclusively with heavy duty 7 gauge marine-grade aluminum (6061-T6 structural grade). It offers the heavy, substantial look of wrought iron but is chemically incapable of rusting. This means your gate will look as pristine in ten years as it does the day it arrives, whether you are on the water in Port Royal or inland in Golden Gate Estates.
Custom Gate Designs for Every Naples Architecture

Naples is unique because it blends ultra-modern coastal architecture with rustic, expansive properties. We design to match your specific location:
- Golden Gate Estates: We build wide, single and dual-swing gates perfect for larger acreages, focusing on privacy, security, and wildlife themes (deer, horses, and native flora).
- Coastal & Waterfront Homes: For properties closer to the Gulf, we offer sleek, modern laser-cut designs that provide privacy without blocking the breeze, finished with a heavy-duty powder coat to withstand salt spray.
- HOA Communities: We can work with your architectural review board to create custom ornamental scrollwork that meets community standards while standing out from the generic “builder-grade” gates
More Than Just a Gate: Custom Plasma Cut Art
Most local fence companies in Collier County buy pre-fabricated panels from a catalog. We are different. Every gate we build is designed, built, powder coated in-house. We use high-precision CNC plasma technology in our shop to create custom plasma cut gates.
This allows us to incorporate personalized elements that standard fabricators can’t touch, including:
- Custom Text & Address Numbers: Integrated directly into the metal frame, not just stuck on.
- Intricate Wildlife Scenes: From realistic Doberman silhouettes (like our featured project below) to Egret and Palm Tree motifs that reflect the Florida landscape.
- Business Logos: Perfect for custom ranch entrances and commercial properties.
Nationwide Shipping & Easy Installation for Florida Clients
Don’t let distance limit your design choices. We ship custom gates to Naples, Bonita Springs, Estero and Marco Island monthly. Our gates are engineered with a “DIY-friendly” philosophy or for easy hand-off to any local fence contractor.
- Ready-to-Hang (No Welding Required!): We build our very own heavy-duty adjustable, sealed bearing gate hinges directly to the gate posts or gate frames, taking the guesswork out of alignment.
- Automation Ready: Our gates are built with reinforced mounting brackets for automatic openers, making them compatible with LiftMaster (we recommend the LA 500 for most applications!) and other major systems.
- Personally Delivered for Safety: We load every gate project on our own trailer and personally delivery it to ensure it arrives at your driveway in flawless condition, ready to hang.
