Wrought Iron Gate Singapore – Durable & Elegant Designs

The difference lies in the application method, durability, and overall finish—all crucial factors when choosing a wrought iron gate for your HDB, condo, or landed property:

Powder Coating for Wrought Iron Gates

• Application: Dry powder is electrostatically applied and then cured under high heat to form a durable, baked-on layer.

• Durability: Highly resistant to rust, chipping, scratches, and fading, making it ideal for Singapore’s humid and rainy climate.

• Finish: Smooth, uniform, and flawless—no drips, bubbles, or streaks. Available in various colours and textures.

• Cost: Slightly more costly due to the specialised process and equipment, but the long-term durability makes it worthwhile.

Spray Painting for Wrought Iron Gates

• Application: Liquid paint is sprayed on and dries through solvent evaporation.

• Durability: Less durable—more prone to chipping, fading, and rust over time, especially when exposed to rain or sun.

• Finish: Depends heavily on the skill of the painter and may show inconsistencies like runs or uneven texture.

• Cost: More affordable upfront but may require more frequent touch-ups or repainting.

At Ho Ho, all our wrought iron gates are powder-coated and hand-brushed with a second colour layer—giving a premium two-tone finish and superior rust resistance compared to basic spray-painted gates.

Both mild steel and wrought iron gates offer good durability when properly coated. At Ho Ho, our mild steel gates are powder-coated to prevent corrosion and peeling.

However, our wrought iron gates come with an enhanced two-layer finish—powder-coated first, then hand-brushed with a second colour—making them even more rust-resistant, especially in Singapore’s humid environment.

For gates exposed to direct sun and rain, you may want to consider a stainless steel or aluminium gate, as these materials do not rust and offer the best long-term durability for outdoor conditions.

It’s a common misconception that wrought iron gates are outdated or less desirable—but that’s far from the truth. In reality, wrought iron gates are still highly valued for their strength, intricate design potential, and premium appearance.

The reason fewer companies offer them is because wrought iron material is harder to source, and working with it requires skilled craftsmanship. Wrought iron is tougher to bend compared to mild steel, making the fabrication process more complex and labour-intensive. Only experienced fabricators with the right tools and expertise can craft true wrought iron gate designs.

That’s why at Ho Ho, we continue to specialise in authentic wrought iron gates, handmade by skilled craftsmen right here in Singapore.

Yes. For similar sizes and design complexity, wrought iron gates are typically about $100 more expensive than mild steel gates. This price difference is due to the higher material cost, the additional hammering process required to create the wrought iron texture, and an extra hand-brushed colour layer that enhances both appearance and rust resistance.

Yes. All our gates include on-site measurement, installation, dismantling, and disposal of the old gate. Each gate comes with a 1-year warranty and a lockset with 8 keys.

1. Regular Cleaning Wipe down your wrought iron gate regularly with a soft cloth or wet wipe. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth with mild soap and water. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive scrubbers, as they can damage the powder-coated and hand-brushed finish.

2. Touching Up Rust Spots Although our wrought iron gates are highly rust-resistant, occasional wear may occur, especially in exposed areas. If you notice rust forming, lightly sand the affected spot and touch it up with rust-resistant spray paint or matching metallic paint to protect the surface and maintain its appearance.

3. Dry Thoroughly After Cleaning Always make sure the gate is fully dry after cleaning. Leaving moisture on the surface may cause rust to develop over time, particularly along joints or decorative grooves.

Proper maintenance helps your wrought iron gate stay functional, rust-free, and visually appealing for years to come. Follow these simple care tips to extend its lifespan:

1. Lubricate Hinges and Locks Apply WD-40 or a similar lubricant to the hinges and lock mechanism every few months. This keeps the gate opening smoothly and prevents squeaking, stiffness, or premature wear.

2. Tighten Loose Screws Over time, vibrations and regular use may cause screws or fittings to loosen. Periodically check and tighten all screws and joints to keep your wrought iron gate stable and secure.

3. Inspect for Rust or Damage Wrought iron is highly durable, especially with our powder-coated and hand-brushed dual-layer finish, but it's still important to inspect for any signs of rust, chipping, or dents. If caught early, most issues can be resolved with a quick touch-up using rust-proof paint.
