Custom Gates in Newport


Modern Gates Melbourne designs, fabricates and installs custom gates for homes and businesses across Newport. From the period homes and renovated cottages near the lakes to newer builds closer to the station, every gate is made to suit the property and the frontage in front of it, rather than pulled from a catalogue.
With over 20 years of experience and Australian-made steel and aluminium fabrication, we handle the design, build and installation in-house. Newport sits close to the bay, so its gates take plenty of salt air, which is why we powder-coat every finish to hold up against it.
Automatic Gate Solutions in Newport
Automatic gates are popular across Newport, and for good reason: they make everyday access easier and add a real layer of security. We fit automation to new and existing gates, matching a sliding or swing motor to the weight of your gate and the space you have to work with.
Open and close from the car with a remote, let visitors in with a keypad or intercom, or run the gate from your phone. Safety sensors stop the gate if something crosses its path, and virtually every automatic gate includes a manual release so a power cut never locks you in or out. If you are weighing up automatic gate solutions in Newport, we can help you explore the options for gate automation or automatic gates.
Gate Options for Newport Properties
We build the full range of gates and fencing for Newport homes:
- Sliding and swinging gates – the two main driveway styles, matched to your space and access.
- Fencing and pedestrian gates – matching side and front gates that tie the frontage together.
- Security gates – stronger builds for properties that need extra protection.
- Brick infills – steelwork set into brick piers for a solid, finished look.
- Welding and general fabrication – custom metalwork beyond standard gates.
- Front and side gates – made to match your home and streetscape.
We work right across the inner-west, so if you are comparing options you can also see our work in Spotswood and Altona.
Gates Built for Newport Homes
Newport is a mix of period weatherboards and Victorian cottages, renovated family homes and newer townhouses, and the right gate looks different on each. On a heritage frontage near the lakes, a custom steel gate can be shaped to suit the era of the house rather than clash with it, while a modern rebuild often calls for a cleaner, more minimal design. Older blocks tend to have narrower frontages where a sliding gate makes the most of the space, and the closer you are to Hobsons Bay, the more the salt air matters, which is why we powder-coat every gate to stand up to it. Because we fabricate in-house, we can match the gate to your home and street rather than forcing a stock size to fit.
