Overview
About the Flat-Top Dual Swing Iron Gate
A flat-top dual swing iron driveway gate consists of two equal-width gate panels with flat (non-pointed) picket tops that swing inward or outward to open the driveway. The flat top picket profile creates a contemporary, architectural appearance that works exceptionally well on modern, transitional, and contemporary Houston homes where ornate decorative elements would clash with the clean design language.
The dual swing configuration is the most common driveway gate design in Houston — two panels swinging from posts on opposite sides of the driveway opening provide maximum opening width, balanced structural loading on the gate posts, and a symmetrical appearance. Flat-top duals are especially popular in master-planned Houston communities where HOA guidelines favor clean, non-ornate gate aesthetics.
Fabrication & Materials
Each panel frame is 2-inch square steel tube. Pickets are 1-inch square bar, flat-cut at the top, equally spaced at 3-4 inches. Gate posts are 4-inch schedule 40 pipe set in 42-inch concrete footings. Heavy-duty ball-bearing hinges rated for the panel weight. Drop rod for double-panel security when closed. LiftMaster, Mighty Mule, and solar automation compatible.
All Mustang Fencing iron gates are custom-fabricated in our Houston shop. Hot-dip galvanized then powder-coated at 400°F. Gate posts are 3" or 4" schedule 40 steel pipe set in 42-inch concrete footings. Heavy-duty ball-bearing hinges rated for the gate's weight. We offer manual, keypad, and solar-powered automated options.

Frequently Asked Questions
What automation is best for a flat-top dual swing iron gate?
LiftMaster LGO1000 and Mighty Mule FM500 are excellent choices for most residential dual swing iron gates. For heavy gates or high-traffic use, LiftMaster commercial swing operators provide longer service life.

Yes — for sloped driveways, we fabricate racked (angled) gate panels that follow the slope, or step the panels to create a level top with the panel bottoms following the grade.
