Your Entrance, On Purpose
A ranch arch is a statement — so it’s worth deciding what you want it to say before the first post goes in. Our arch design service walks you through the options, shows you real examples we’ve built, and produces a design matched to your property, your equipment, and your budget.
The Big Design Decisions
Structure:
- Log entryway — authentic, high-character logs; the quintessential rustic ranch look
- Square milled beam — clean, refined lines milled in our own sawmill
Finish:
- Rustic — natural surfaces that weather into the landscape
- Stained — deepens the grain for a polished, estate-level appearance
Base:
- Timber posts — traditional and strong
- Stone column bases — masonry that adds grandeur, mass, and frost-proof support (and pairs beautifully with heavy automatic gates)
Details:
- Ranch brand signage, entrance lighting, automatic gates, side fencing, and cattle guards — designed in from the start instead of bolted on later
How the Process Works
- Site visit and consultation — we look at the approach, sightlines, grade, and equipment clearances
- Design and options — structure, finish, base, and add-ons with straight talk on cost trade-offs
- Build — our own crew mills, welds, lays stone, pours footings, and stands the arch
- The reveal — an entrance that encapsulates the spirit of your ranch
