I spent several days creating a very ornate driveway gate for my personal residence.  It's 20'x5' tall with a rise to 7' in the center.  I've added it in the Symbols Library for anyone interested!

Nice Job JB. At 20' I'm assuming that gate

is going to be a slider. Will you need to put

a horizontal bar near the top for the rollers

to ride on? It can detract from the intended

design.

 

While no where near as ornate, I too designed

a 12' x 7' entry gate for the duplex on our property.

It turned out pretty nice. Hope you have a good

metal guy to bring it to life.

I hope not, I am hopeful that the rollers can ride on the lower bar I created but will find out when I meet with the Fabrication Company next week.  The good news is that they are extremely capable!  Just look at the VERY unique 10' wide by 12' tall entry door that I designed for my personal residence and they fabricated it exacted as designed!

Very impressive. Did you model that door in

Chief as well? Looks like you are definitely

in good hands as far as the fabrication goes. 

 

The Live Oak Estates are really our inside

joke. They are actually a pair of 480 sq ft

one bedroom, one bathroom rental units

that we are now passing off as an exclusive

gated community. :)

Thanks, yes I had the Fabricator send me CAD files of some of the basic shapes and then I modified them and created the design, however, I did not take the time to create actual CAD blocks and create a Model/Symbol as I did with the gate.
