When it comes to curb appeal and functional design, the modern side gate is having a moment in Los Angeles. Whether you’re upgrading your home's side access or adding a discreet security solution, side gates offer a unique opportunity to add style without taking over your entryway.
But these days, it’s not just about function—it’s about clean lines, modern finishes, and durable materials that stand up to California’s weather. That’s where DNA Gates and Fences steps in.

Why Vinyl and Aluminum Are Better Than Wood
🔗 Explore all our Gate Installation options
Traditional wood gates might have once ruled the side entry market, but in LA’s climate, they require constant maintenance. At DNA Gates and Fences, we don’t offer wood—but we do offer vinyl gates with stunning wood-look finishes. These gates deliver all the warmth of timber without the risk of warping, rotting, or fading.
Aluminum side gates are another popular pick—lightweight, rust-resistant, and strong enough for long-term outdoor use.
