Custom gate welding at Frankie D's Naples shop
Our Story

A Naples family business that's been building gates for 15+ years

We're not a franchise. We're not a big national chain. We're a Naples family that takes ornamental ironwork seriously — and treats every property like our own.

Meet Frankie

From a one-truck repair shop to Southwest Florida's most-recommended gate company

Frankie D started this business in 2010 with one truck, a welding rig, and a reputation he'd built repairing gates for friends and neighbors in Naples. Word spread fast. Within a few years, he'd hired his first full-time installer; within five, the team had grown to a full crew running multiple jobs a week across Collier County.

Today we install gates and fences from Marco Island all the way north to Cape Coral, but the philosophy hasn't changed: every job is run like Frankie himself is going to inspect it — because most of the time, he is.

We've built our reputation one HOA-board approval, one estate driveway, and one happy homeowner at a time. We don't run high-pressure sales. We don't pad our quotes. We just do the work right and stand behind it.
