Contemporary wooden gates, especially those featuring horizontal slats and minimalist lines, have become a popular design element in modern Los Angeles homes. Whether it’s for privacy, security, or curb appeal, many homeowners search for contemporary wooden driveway gates to elevate their property's exterior.
However, while wood offers a classic and warm aesthetic, it comes with challenges—namely ongoing maintenance, weather-related wear, and susceptibility to pests and warping. That’s why at DNA Gates & Fences, we don’t offer wooden gates. Instead, we provide vinyl gates with wood-like finishes that mimic the look of timber while outperforming it in durability and longevity.
Why Vinyl Is a Better Alternative to Wood
Vinyl gates can replicate the look and grain of timber with far less upkeep. Unlike wood, vinyl won’t rot, warp, or require constant repainting. These gates are ideal for Los Angeles’ climate, handling heat and moisture with ease while maintaining their appearance over time. Plus, vinyl can be customised to achieve that sleek, horizontal design many associate with modern wood gates.
