Cantilever Gate Installation in Burien, WA

FERRO-GATES completed a custom cantilever gate installation in Burien, WA with black TERRA slats, a BENINCA automatic operator, wireless keypad access, remote control operation, and integrated LED lighting.

This project was built for a private driveway that needed a modern entrance system, controlled access, privacy, and reliable daily operation. The gate layout also needed to work without a ground track, which made a cantilever sliding gate a practical solution for the property.

Project Details

Project type: Cantilever sliding gate installation
Location: Burien, WA
Gate style: Black TERRA slats
Frame: Custom welded steel frame
Operator: BENINCA automatic gate operator
Access control: Wireless keypad and remote control access
Lighting: Integrated LED lighting
Use case: Private driveway entrance

Why a Cantilever Gate Worked for This Burien Driveway

A cantilever gate was selected because it slides without a ground track. This can be useful for driveways where dirt, leaves, moisture, gravel, uneven surfaces, or slight slope conditions may affect a track-based sliding gate.

For this Burien property, the cantilever design helped keep the driveway entrance clear while supporting smooth automated movement for daily use.

Black TERRA Slats for a Modern Privacy Gate

The gate was finished with black TERRA slats. This style creates a modern privacy-focused appearance while still keeping the gate visually lighter than a fully solid panel.

The horizontal slat layout works well for properties that need privacy, a clean entrance design, and a consistent look with nearby fence or perimeter sections.

Custom Welded Steel Frame

The gate frame was custom welded to fit the driveway opening and property layout. For cantilever systems, frame strength and alignment matter because the gate moves without support from a ground track.

The custom steel frame helped support the TERRA slat infill, operator setup, keypad access, and integrated lighting while keeping the gate stable for regular use.

BENINCA Operator and Wireless Keypad Access

The gate was equipped with a BENINCA automatic operator for automated movement. The system also included wireless keypad access and remote control operation for convenient entry.

Wireless keypad access is useful for homeowners, guests, service providers, deliveries, and controlled driveway entry without relying only on physical remotes.

Integrated LED Lighting

This project also included integrated LED lighting. The lighting improves visibility around the entrance and gives the gate system a more finished appearance in the evening.

For a modern TERRA-style gate, lighting helps the final installation feel more complete and intentional, especially when paired with black horizontal slats and a clean steel frame.

Just had a new fence installed by Ferro-Gates. Although they usually specialize in metal fences, we preferred a wood one. Their estimate was the most affordable of the 3 we had done, and the work was outstanding. Max made sure that he understood exactly what we wanted. The quality of the construction was excellent, and he solved a problem we had with our old back gate for years. Highly recommend using them.

It’s been a month since the Ferro fence was installed and the metal fence design and beauty have been praised by lots of neighbors and friends. The Ferro staff meticulously designed and installed at the solid concrete foundation with care. My family are so impressed by their working spirit and the good quality of the fence. Kudos to everyone of Ferro. I strongly recommend the Ferro fence system. Thank you, Max and Darya.

Ferro Gates installed a privacy screen using the Tisa picket fencing, which is normally used for a standard fence. They were able to adapt to my request and built an outstanding privacy screen on our back deck. I am completely satisfied with the excellent and timely work, and the high quality of the fencing material. I highly recommend them and the fine
product that they use.

I was referred to Ferro-Gates by a local fence installer, they went with me to a supply store and picked up all the supplies I needed for a small privacy wall project. Metal slats looked good, the final touch was really spot on, very good quality performance, very friendly people in the office and quick and efficient loading at their warehouse. I highly recommend and will always trust them with my future project.

We,ve installed fence and two pedestrian gates with Ferro-Gates
The materials are modern, grey color. This is the only one company near the Bellevue, WA, which provides not only black metal fence. The communication was very clear,an estimate hadn't any hidden parts, and it was pretty reasonable price for the fence and hardware they used for the installation. They probably spent more time for the gates installation on my property, than they expected, because we are pretty picky. But the result is exactly the same as I we discussed. Thank you for your time and patience!
