Garden Gates

decorative gate

This 37 foot section of forged fencing is part of a commission that included driveway, pedestrian, and service drive gates. Three 6' x 6' grill panels and three additional 12' fencing sections. All the work was assembled using traditional methods, ie. mortice and tenons, riviting and slitting and drifting. The middle horizontal bar is 3/4" round passing through 3/4" square bars which were heated in a coal forge and then a 3/4" round hold was slit and drifted through them. The bottom bar is 3/4" by 1" and had 1/2" round holes slit and drifted to accept a 1/2" tenon that was forged on the end of the 3/4" square vertical bars. All material used is solid bar stock.

Glenn also creates driveway and garden gates, light fixtures, grills, and decorative fence work, as well as tables, lamps, and fixtures for interiors. He considers himself fortunate to be able to do his own design work for commissions and original creations, a practice that allows him to create challenges that lead to continual growth and self-expression.
