We swithered for years about replacing our old gates but came across AES and liked the work on their website.
Gordon visited to discuss our situation, suggested a local site where we could see similar gates and generally provided very full information and quotes.
We went ahead with the work this month and we are delighted; the whole operation was very professional and our gates work so well. We’ve had lots of comments from passers-by.
AES have now taken on the maintenance of all our gates and I feel we are in good hands.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We recently had AES Scotland design and install electric gates for our driveway, and we are honestly delighted.

The communication from the beginning, the update on how things were progressing and the end result have been fantastic (and they worked through the horrendous weather to complete)!

I'd highly recommend AES, a lovely team and great quality workmanship!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Can't recommend AES enough, Gordon and his team were amazing from start to finish. Advising on all aspects of the gates and making sure they were the right fit for my property. The final product looks amazing and works flawlessly. I will be back in the future for any other work.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We got new gates fitted by AES. I have to say the whole process was exceptionally easy. Lisa in the office was extremely fast in coming back to me. Gordon came out to measure and gave me a view I had not considered. Gordon and his colleague came out on the day they said and fitted the gates. Very impressive service. I would highly recommend this company.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. AES were recommended to us by friends who had new gates installed and were very happy with the outcome they achieved. Our situation was very different - old, deactivated, concealed motor, iron gate on a shared driveway that apparently had never worked well - we weren't too hopeful that a fix was possible and were bracing ourselves for a completely new install.

However, Gordon and his team managed to clear out the motors and get them working again. The intercom and controls were dragged from an old, unreliable dialler system in to the 21st century and we can now see from and control our gates from anywhere in the world. A new free exit radar and safety features we hadn't even thought about were installed for an altogether more complete system. Gordon even kindly took the time to explain the system to the neighbours that share our driveway.

The quality of workmanship speaks for itself but Gordon and his team were also by far one of the easiest to communicate with and most professional contractors we have dealt with throughout a complex renovation. We would recommend AES to anyone.

Design Flexibility & Long-Term Corrosion Protection

At AES (Scotland) Ltd, we design and install bespoke wrought iron driveway gates, steel gates and metal entrance gates across Edinburgh, Fife and Scotland, offering durable, secure and visually striking metal gate solutions tailored to each property. Our gates can be manufactured to a wide range of designs, from traditional ornamental styles to clean, contemporary layouts.

Wrought iron and steel gates offer exceptional flexibility in design. Decorative scrollwork, curved tops, simple vertical bars or fully bespoke patterns can all be incorporated, allowing each gate to reflect the character of the property and the preferences of the client. More intricate designs typically require additional fabrication time, while simpler designs provide a cost-effective yet elegant solution. All of our metal gates are hot-dip galvanised and powder coated, providing long-term protection against corrosion and weathering. This process ensures a durable, low-maintenance finish that resists rust, blistering and flaking, making wrought iron and steel gates well suited to Scottish conditions.

Matching Iron Railings & Custom Metal Fabrication

Routine cleaning is usually all that is required to keep the gates looking their best. Powder-coated finishes are available in a wide range of colours, allowing the gates to be matched to surrounding architecture or boundary treatments. Whether you prefer a traditional black finish or a bespoke colour, we ensure a high-quality, long-lasting result.

To create a cohesive boundary, we also supply matching wrought iron railings and metal fencing panels across Scotland, designed to complement your driveway gates and overall property entrance. These can be produced in various heights and styles to suit both residential and selected commercial properties, enhancing security while maintaining a consistent appearance. Alongside our established designs, we specialise in fully bespoke wrought iron and steel gates. Whether you have a reference image, an existing design to replicate, or a completely original concept, our team can manufacture a gate that fits your site, layout and aesthetic requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions About Wrought Iron Gates

1. Why choose wrought iron gates?

Wrought iron gates offer an excellent combination of security, durability and timeless visual appeal. Available in both traditional and contemporary designs, they can be tailored to complement a wide range of properties while providing a strong and reliable entrance solution. When professionally manufactured and installed, wrought iron gates can enhance security, kerb appeal and long-term property value.

2. Do wrought iron gates rust?

Not when properly protected and maintained. At AES (Scotland) Ltd, all metal gates are hot-dip galvanised before being powder coated, providing long-term protection against corrosion and weathering. This process helps prevent rust, blistering and flaking, making wrought iron gates well suited to Scottish conditions.

3. Are wrought iron gates secure?

Yes. Wrought iron gates are widely regarded as one of the most secure gate options available. Their robust construction provides excellent resistance to impact and forced entry, helping to improve perimeter security while maintaining an attractive appearance. Additional security measures can also be incorporated where required.

4. What security features are available for metal gates?

Metal gates can be integrated with a wide range of access control and security systems. Popular options include keypads, audio and video intercoms, GSM dial-to-open systems, remote controls, proximity readers and smartphone-based access control. The most suitable solution will depend on the property’s security requirements and how the gate will be used on a day-to-day basis.

5. Can wrought iron gates be made to a bespoke design?

Yes. Every wrought iron gate can be tailored to suit the property and the client’s requirements. From traditional ornamental scrollwork and decorative detailing to clean contemporary designs, gates can be manufactured to a specific design, reference image or completely bespoke concept.

6. How long do wrought iron gates last?

A professionally manufactured wrought iron gate can provide decades of reliable service when properly maintained. Lifespan depends on factors such as fabrication quality, protective finishes, environmental conditions and ongoing maintenance. Hot-dip galvanising and powder coating play an important role in maximising longevity and long-term performance.
