Custom metalwork Hermanus
Steel Gates, Railings, Fencing and Coastal Metalwork for Hermanus
Iron-D-Zign has created custom metalwork since 1995, serving Hermanus and surrounding Overstrand areas with driveway gates, pedestrian gates, railings, fencing, enclosures, repairs, refurbishment, and custom fabrication.
Built with coastal conditions in mind
Coastal metalwork in the Western Cape has to cope with salt air, moisture, wind, rain, UV exposure, and higher rust risk. Good design considers drainage, preparation, material choice, access for maintenance, and finish selection.

Questions about gates, railings, fencing and repairs
Do you make custom driveway gates in Hermanus?
Yes. Iron-D-Zign makes custom driveway gates in Hermanus and surrounding Overstrand areas, including sliding, swing, and site-specific gate designs.
Can you repair a rusted or sagging gate?
Yes. Rob can assess rusted, sagging, damaged, or worn gates and advise whether repair, reinforcement, refurbishment, or replacement is the sensible route.
Why does coastal metalwork rust faster?
Coastal metalwork is exposed to salt air, moisture, wind-driven rain, UV exposure, and changing weather. These conditions can accelerate corrosion when materials, preparation, drainage, or finishes are not suitable for the site.
