Need a person that makes gates

I'm looking for a person who makes gates. Prefer aluminum material for both gates. One gate will be both security as well as decorative that will restrict access to a porch. The other gate will be security only (don't really care what it looks like as long as it is on hinges, has a hasp/closure that we can put a lock on) to restrict access to the crawl space under the house. Much like Speed1y's other post for electrician, would like a person that will return phone calls, actually SHOW UP and would get the job done in my lifetime. (What a concept......I say with a patient smile on my face as a little frustration puts a warm glow on my skin). We're on Water Island and we'd be happy to pick up the individual if they don't want to wait/take the WI ferry. Anyone have someone they would recommend that has the qualities I'm looking for?

I have used Carlos Iron works on the highway across from Sea Chest for iron gates--- not sure about aluminum. 774-5477

Thanks Exit Zero! I'm familiar with the location of Carlos Iron Works. Pass by that place a lot when on island going to Sea Chest, Napa, or the pharmacy (to get bandaids and neosporin - smile - .....doing projects can be very hazardous work). I'll give him a call to see if he does any aluminum work. Salt/sea air out there on the point is not very friendly to metals. I know salt/sea air also can 'pit' aluminum over time if we don't keep a wax on it. Would really prefer aluminum if I can find someone that works with it.
