Criminals and terrorists tend to favor targets that offer minimal resistance. Research shows that the presence of a robust perimeter security system can decrease the incidence of criminal activity while helping to support increased business success. On a lighter note, security gates can also help organizations and institutions control the flow of traffic — automotive and pedestrian alike.
Once, businesses and other commercial properties had to sacrifice aesthetic appeal in favor of security. However, today’s ornamental security gates from TYMETAL Corp provide the best of both worlds with no need to compromise. With both standard and customized designs offered by TYMETAL, you get security you can rely on with designs that complement and elevate the property’s visual appeal.
The Fusion of Aesthetics and Security in Ornamental Gates
Commercial security gates are used on properties all over the world. From governmental and public services buildings to industrial complexes and military installations to airports and schools, these essential tools perform a critical function. Security gates restrict access and enhance privacy while aiding in managing high volumes of traffic and deterring intruders. With ornamental gate options, you get the same durability and performance combined with an attractive design.
Features and Design Elements of Ornamental Security Gates
Creating a safe and secure environment doesn’t have to compromise aesthetics. Likewise, installing a visually appealing security gate system shouldn’t require sacrificing security needs. Let’s explore some of the design elements you can expect from ornamental gates, which are available in both standard and custom options to suit any property.
Ornamental Gate Styles and Architectural Enhancements
At TYMETAL, our expert team can manufacture any gate to match commercial fencing and provide custom manufacturing to suit individual requirements. The various picket styles available, which include internal, extended, convex, and compound, impact the lines of the overall finished product. Whether you need something streamlined and modern or something more ornate, there is a design option to suit your objectives.
Additionally, clients can choose their picket tops. Smashed point tops look like the traditional spear-top, which also add a visual deterrent to anyone considering hopping the fence. More minimalist options like flat-top pickets provide a clean, simple effect. Three-point and ball-top finials offer additional decorative appeal to the finished product.
High-Quality Materials for Durable and Elegant Gates
Ornamental gates can be adapted to virtually any configuration and are designed for lasting beauty and performance. TYMETAL fabricates ornamental gate frames and pickets from aluminum alloy extrusions. This material is of the utmost quality. It’s lightweight and malleable in the shop, making it an excellent option for custom designs. At the same time, these high-quality materials offer superior strength and corrosion resistance, ensuring they remain aesthetically pleasing for years to come.
Custom finishes range from mill aluminum to baked-on powder coating, which clients can opt for in custom or standard colors.
Benefits of Ornamental Security Gates
Ornamental gates offer the same benefits as less aesthetically pleasing options, with the added bonus of looking great and complementing the property’s design schematics. Benefits include:
- Enhanced Security: Ornamental security gates are more than just a visual deterrent. They control access and reduce risks of trespassing, vandalism, and more.
- Improved Access Control: High security locations can limit entry to those with the proper authorization. Both manual and automatic options provide the ability to limit entry to select personnel for improved security measures.
- Traffic Management: With ornamental security gates in place, facilities can better manage the flow of traffic. While is particularly critical for high-traffic locations, any property can benefit from the enhanced safety and operational streamlining that security gates provide.
- Reduced Costs: Many insurance carriers recognize the efficacy of security gate installation and their ability to reduce theft and other losses. In turn, they may offer reduced premiums. Additionally, by protecting the property’s assets, businesses and organizations will spend less on recovery efforts and the costs associated with mitigating damages.
- Increased Curb Appeal: No matter the property, a properly designed security gate can enhance its professional appearance.
