Wood gates for the entrance.
Large-format leaves for driveways, garages and courtyards, with a frame and hardware designed for their weight and for sun and rain.
WOODEN GATE · RESIDENTIAL ENTRY
WOOD DOORS / GATES
The first piece you see.
A gate is the most exposed piece of joinery in a house or hotel: it stands outdoors, opens every day and is the first thing you see from the street. That is why its design starts with the structure, a frame that keeps the leaves square so they don’t sag over the years.
We make it in solid wood, with one or two leaves, boarded or paneled, from the architect’s design, and install it with our own team.
WHEN IT FITS
From the driveway to the courtyard.
- 01
Driveways
Two large-format leaves that open the full passage to a garage or parking area.
- 02
Courtyards and service entrances
Single-leaf gates for courtyards, gardens and service entrances.
- 03
With a pedestrian door
A door built into one of the leaves, so you don’t have to open the whole gate.
- 04
Boarded or paneled
Vertical or horizontal boards, or framed panels, to suit the façade.
- 05
With a screen
An open section that lets air and views through with the gate closed.
HOW WE MAKE THEM
Weight is solved in the frame.
- Solid wood frame with rails and joinery that keep the leaves square.
- Hinges or pivots sized for the weight and width of each leaf.
- Anchoring to the wall or posts resolved with the architect before installation.
- Exterior finish and corrosion-resistant hardware, especially on the coast.
- Installation by our own team and after-sales maintenance.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Wood gates
Which wood is best for a gate?
For outdoor pieces we usually use tzalam or macuil for their stability and durability. On the coast we also take care of the finish and of salt-resistant hardware.
What maintenance does a wood gate need?
Like any exterior piece, its finish needs renewing from time to time, depending on the sun and rain it gets. We maintain the pieces we make.
Do you install gates outside Oaxaca?
Yes. We have installed joinery in Oaxaca city, on the coast, in Mexico City and in Valle de Bravo. Freight and travel are quoted separately.
