Built to Protect What Matters Most

Fire Resistance

In fire-prone areas, the materials you choose for your gates and fencing matter. Metal and other non-combustible materials create defensible space and won’t contribute fuel to a wildfire — a critical consideration for Conejo Valley properties.

If your gates, fencing, or automation systems were damaged or destroyed by fire, we provide complete rebuild services — from debris removal and new installation to permitting and coordination with your insurance company.

What Makes a Gate Fire-Resistant

LEARN THE DIFFERENCE

Non-Combustible Materials

Aluminum and steel gates and fencing will not burn. Unlike wood or vinyl, metal provides no fuel for a wildfire — a critical factor in creating defensible space around your home.

Embers & Heat

During a wildfire, embers can travel over a mile. Metal gates and fencing won’t ignite from ember exposure, and powder-coated finishes can withstand high heat without contributing to fire spread.

Rebuild After Fire

If your property was damaged by fire, we handle the complete rebuild — debris removal, new gate and fence installation, automation systems, permitting, and coordination with your insurance adjuster.

I feel so lucky to have found Chris of Westlake Dream Gates! Am very picky about who I hire to work on my farm. He was kind, lovely to work with, professional and trustworthy in every way. When you find someone with this kind of ethic, and such high quality outcomes, keep their contact info in your "favorites" file. I've worked with Chris and his crew on two different projects now and will continue to do so in the future!

Dealt directly with owner Chris. He is very responsive and professional. Prices are very competitive. The finished product looks and functions great and is so much nicer and more solid than the vinyl gate we replaced. Very high quality gate and hardware. So much more secure than most gates. I feel like I have a side door more than a side gate. I have already recommended Chris and Westlake Dream Gates and will use them again.

Westlake Dream Gates installed fencing panels on our steep backyard hillside. It was truly a pleasure to work with Chris! He is honest, dependable, and very attentive. The materials used are high quality. He and his crew showed up everyday and cleaned up after. You can tell that his crew enjoys working with him. An overall great experience. Highly recommend.

It’s been a month since Westlake Dream Gates created and installed our custom gates (main gate and a second dog gate) and we are still incredibly happy with the decision to work with WDG for this project. We wanted to go with something sleek, modern, sturdy, eco-friendly, and different from the typical vinyl product in order to update the well-worn wood gates we had before, and WDG delivered on all of those fronts and then some. Because everything is cut-to-fit on-site, Chris and his team worked with us during the installation process to ensure we got the gate designs we wanted along with managing the specific constraints that the walkway presented for this project. They were able to accommodate last-minute design needs without compromising the end result. And the end result has been great! Our family and neighbors have been giving us compliments about it ever since the install! The soft-close feature on both gates has been fantastic in that the gates don’t slam shut, reducing the noise that slamming typically makes while preserving the lifespan of the gates—something the old gates could have really benefitted from. Both gates were also equipped with kick down door stoppers, which makes it a breeze for the pool guy to get his equipment into the backyard without banging the gates in the process. We highly recommend WDG, Chris, and his team and will definitely be in touch when we decide to update the remainder of our property’s fencing.

I had 3 minor welding job repairs. They did a great job it turned out better than expected. They were prompt and price was reasonable. I would have them again for any metal work.
