Gates and Railings

We want to install some wrought iron gates, and poolside railings. We had a quote in November from OPM on the Rocha Brava road up from the N125. They initially sounded very encouraging, but their eventual quote was 2 1/2 times the estimate, and we came away, possibly unfairly, thinking "Ohh they are rich Brits, so think of a number, double it and add on a nought!"

We have heard of a British owned company near Silves called GFS Metalworks. Has anybody heard of them, or had work done by them?

Any help, or advice would be most welcome.

Bruce, here you go, I think they are quite expensive as well bot give them a whirl.

There is a small place opposite the old Mestremaco in Lagoa.

Good luck.

One to avoid is Sprayaway in Alcantarilha.

Is only to keen to quote, then doubles the price later for lowgrade workmanship
