Hi Arthur,
Hope the below is sufficient for the website;
It is always with intrepidation that a project such as this is undertaken, as choosing the right company is vital especially at the present time, which is why we were so pleased at having made the decision to use Arthur and his team. They are honest, patient, hardworking and true masters of their craft. From initial discussions it was quickly apparent that we were looking for something bespoke and Arthur guided us through the many choices available, brought samples, sent drawings and allowed us plenty of time to find something that we both felt would enhance and improve our property. Throughout this project his team were polite and cheerful, nothing was too much trouble; despite our attempts at getting in their way by planting nearly 60 yew trees and resurfacing the driveway at the same time. Our expectations have been exceeded. The quality and finish of both the railings and gates are superb and neither of us would hesitate in recommending Arthur and his team for any project, infact Arthur, we need you back to look at a first floor balcony soon...
Mr & Mrs Cowley, Henley
Hi Arthur,
Thank you Arthur for providing a high quality of service, it was first class! Everything was done with great precision and care, you take a lot of pride in your business, and it showed in your workmanship. You have a great team with Chris and Tommy. A big thank you to you all.We would highly recommend you to friends and family.
Best wishes
Mr & Mrs Deol
We are very pleased and will certainly recommend you to others.
Mr Shankland
Hi Arthur Please find our testimonial below and apologies for the delay. From our first meeting with Arthur, we felt confident in his professional and friendly approach. One of our main concerns was around the safety for our toddler, which through his expert knowledge Arthur was able to address from the outset. The service from start to finish was impeccable, and the work itself looks immaculate. Would highly recommend for an all round excellent experience.
Chris & Claire
It is rare to discover an artist who is as efficient and obliging as he is talented and reliable. Whether it is a workaday commission like gates or an ornamental rose arbour, Arthur has a flare for creating the clients wishes perfectly and he does so with the true enthusiasm of a craftsman who loves what he does. I have no hesitation in recommending him for any and all Wrought iron work, and am very happy for prospective customers to inspect the work he has done at my home. Kind regards and good luck
Michel, Farnham Common
In employing Ark Wrought Ironwork Ltd to install Automatic Wrought Iron gates we could not have chosen more wisely. In every respect their work was exemplary, carried out efficiently and with an obliging attention to personal requests. Quality products were used and the quotation was competitive. We would therefore highly recommend their work to anyone considering a similar installation.
John Williams Windsor
Hi Arthur Its not my style to give testimonials but on this occasion I felt the professional way your company handled the whole project was particularly worth commenting on. From design to completion was very well done,your commitment to ensuring it was completed on time and to budget was an important part of giving customer satisfaction. We would also like to give special mention to T.C. Building Services who lived up to your recommendations, the brickwork and alterations to the driveway are of a very high standard. I would not hesitate in giving a reference to Ark Wrought Ironwork Ltd and T.C. Building Services Well done Arthur and Thanks to you and your team from a very satisfied customer
Peter & Joyce
Originally we wanted a wooden 5 bar gate, but after discussing our options with Arthur and him taking us to see a previous installation, we decided on a 5 bar gate design but in metal.We are over the moon with it, and it has been a pleasure working with Arthur & his team.
We would gladly offer any potentional customers a reference for there workmanship.
Mr & Mrs James - Windsor
"Thank you to Arthur and his team - I am absolutely delighted with my railings. They look fantastic and they were installed quickly and efficiently. An excellent job. Thank you again"
Barbara
Dear Arthur,
I always like to compliment when it is well deserved.
My wife and I are very pleased with the new gate installation at our home, the installation has been carried out in a very professional manner. We are also impressed with the way you have left the area of your work so clean and tidy. We would have no hesitation in recommending you to any of our friends.
Mr Barnett Gerrards Cross
Dear Arthur Please accept our sincere thanks for the great job, you and your team did in creating the new entrance to our home. I was concerned about having this work done as there are so many cowboys offering electric gates and we always like to work from personal recommendation. Sadly we had none amongst our friends and family, but were very impressed by the glowing testimonials on your own site. Now the job is completed I'm very happy to say that our own experience of Arkwrought Iron Works has also been exceptional. Right from the beginning, you were able to offer advice to us in terms of design, and the preparation of CAD drawings of our final gate design was invaluable for our planning application. This was necessary in our case as our driveway and entrance are crossed by a public footpath. Once the work started it was obvious you were well equipped with quality tools which matched the level of workmanship of the finished product. The groundwork was done very quickly, yet we still had access in and out of our property whilst the work was underway. If you remember, most of this work was done under a portable gazebo in torrential rain, which immediately filled the various trenches, highlighting the need for an additional soak away to prevent the motor boxes filling with water. Nothing was too much trouble and Chris's work in fabricating the gates themselves was outstanding. Tommy's brickwork was very neat and square in every direction, despite the pillars being 16' apart. Once the capping stones went on, we could see how the entrance would look. The final part was the installation of the gates themselves and I'm pleased to say, the quality of the powder coating was certainly on a par with the rest of the work. I would have no hesitation in recommending you for any similar work. Your work was competitive and yet the quality was high and attention to detail outstanding.
Gordon & Jackie Stolliday
I recently had a small handrail installed at my Mother's house by Ark Wrought Ironwork, as soon as I spoke to Arthur and looked at his website I had made the decision to use his company, they were very professional, my mother can now decend from the garden safely.
Mr Hann, Gerrards Cross
I would just like to say how pleased we are with the gates and railings Arthur and his team have made for us. They were a pleasure to deal with and gave us exactly what we wanted, and would recommend them without question.
Many Thanks
Mr & Mrs Sandler, Iver
"Ark have done several specialist metalwork jobs for us and I am happy to recommend them wholeheartedly and without reservation. They tackled both an aesthetically challenging project on our front railings which attracted very favourable comments from all and a skilful engineering project on the installation of a river lock gate and boat house doors. Ark are very competitive on price, thorough, skilled and good problem solvers with simple reliable solutions, very tidy and incredibly conscientious. Ark even made a small repair on our gates that a truck had damaged on a bank holiday Monday when I had said the repair could wait. First class"
Chris Taylor, River Thames
Arthur & Team, I just wanted to let you know how pleased both Colin and I are with the automated 5 bar gate and railings you have installed for us at Cherry Tree - they are just as we envisaged. The overall service from our very initial enquiry to the finished product has been excellent and we cannot thank you and your team enough for all the hard work that has gone into our project. I would have no hesitation in recommending your company to anyone now or in the future.
Colin & Dee Yeandle
Dear Arthur A big thank-you to you and your team for stepping into the breach so promptly and putting right the appalling mess left by our previous gate installer. Your attention to detail, reliability and constant reassurance that all would be well has restored our faith in human nature. We are thrilled with the unique design of our custom built sliding gate which compliments the house beautifully and certainly draws admiring glances from passers by. The gate system is very quiet, smooth and easy to operate, which is a must with four grown up children coming and going at all hours of the day and night! Once again, many thanks to all of you for an excellent job and for being so friendly and approachable at all times. Graham and I would be more than happy to recommend your company to any potential customers. Regards,
Tricia & Graham Nattress,
Dear Arthur
A big thank you on completion of our gates and railings. Despite the snow and rain, the installation went incredibly smoothly. Your attention to detail was really appreciated, especially as we had problems with differing land levels which you solved such that you now can’t tell there was a problem to begin with.
We are very impressed with the wire free gate opening that works off a SIM card. It has been very useful for our teenage children to gain entry using their mobile phones. It has allowed us to control access of the gates in so many ways. The other day I opened the gates for our window cleaner from my phone whilst on a business trip in Romania! Not only do they give us much improved security, they look good too. We have had many comments from friends, so expect a few phone calls. I would recommend your company without any reservations whatsoever
Mr & Mrs Ross, Gerrards Cross
Dear Arthur
Once again thank you very much for a great job,the handrails are just what we wanted and we will gladly recommend you to other people.
Mr & Mrs Fisher
Arthur,and team-a big thank you.There is little point in having security gates,if they fail,(albeit after 11 years of effective working) and are not repaired,quickly. Your willingness to attend an emergency inspection at 9pm, in the cold,to propose alternative solutions and then come up with the least expensive and most efficient option ,followed by prompt,cheery and effective workmanship, leaves 5 very happy gatekeepers, once again-Secure. Please let your potential customers know that I would be very happy to speak and to commend your company,BUT,please don't get too busy,as we need your time for annual maintenance too.
Mr Ray Campsie
We recently had the misfortune to have a break-in which prompted us to have a side security gate fitted and Arthur was recommended to us by a relative who had been through a similar experience. We have been delighted with the whole process as Arthur was able to provide us with some useful guidance on security issues as well as being prompt in providing plans, manufacturing and subsequent installation of the gate. We would certainly recommend that you contact Arthur if you are considering the installation of security systems.
Mr W Barnes
Arthur Thoroughly recommended. Really pleased, high quality finish and service. Thanks very much
Richard and Fiona Powell
Dear Arthur, Many thanks to you and your team for the great job you did in installing our gates. We were very impressed with your advice, flexibility and standard of workmanship. Most importantly we are really pleased with the end result - the red ceder gates fit perfectly into their surroundings. As a true craftsman you clearly take great pride in what you do and that pays off in the quality of the result. We would have no hesitation in recommending you to potential customers.
Ian Peters
Dear Arthur
On behalf of Andy and myself, I would just like to thank you and your team for the superb new gates you have recently installed at The Old Thatch. Aesthetically they look really great and very in keeping with our period cottage (which had been one of my initial concerns) and practically they provide the added security to our property that we require. They are easy to operate and so far we have not experienced any problems with the intercom system. All in all we all delighted with the end product. You and your team have been very easy to work with at every stage of the process, and have consistently provided us with all the necessary information and expertise. We have been pleasantly surprised by the level of service and after care (which we hope will continue should we experience any problems in the future) and we would be pleased to recommend Ark Gates to any of our friends or family.
Many thanks again for a great job. Regards Helena and Andy Shirley

Many thanks for a speedy and professional job
Jonathan Findler, Ascot
I have read the other customer testimonials for the jobs you have done for people. I would like to add how pleased I have been with the service I have received. After having a new extension on my property I was not told by the builders that I would need railings so I was completely in the dark as to what I would need. My railings were fitted this afternoon and I am very pleased with the end result. I would not hesitate to recommend your company to anyone interested in having this type of work done.
Mrs V Lawrence, Harrow
Arthur I hope you will add this on your testimonials as I am one of your satisfied customers! I am pleased that Cathy recommended you to me!
victoria Lawrence
Dear Arthur, We wanted to thank you and your team for doing such a great job with the gates. From the design to the final installation you have provided a professional and outstanding service and we would have no hesitation in recommending you to our friends and family.

Good job, thank you. Glad to see the gnome making an appearance on the photo!
As a testimonial, happy to say:
"Very pleased with the speed and quality of the work. We got exactly what we wanted and would certainly use Arthur again. BVS, Chalfont St Peter"

Dear Arthur I would just like the thank you for an extremely professional job. The railings and gates have exceeded my expections.
Kevin Dunton
Arthur,
I approached you to quote on a new gate installation in the New Year (2009), you were the first of four companies I spoke with over several months on the potential solutions I could install, you set the benchmark. You understood my access requirements, considering the proximity to the main road, access for my children returning from school, the need to manoeuvre the RIB trailer, the dog and security considerations. Having conducted your site survey your proposed solution met my requirement. I appreciated the professionalism that you maintained right the way through the process, from site visit, quotation stage, consultation as I discussed alternative solutions suggested by other companies, your focus was always on the quality of the product and install. This approach continued through the installation process, you started on time and finished on time. You always left the drive area clean and fully operational. The finished result exceeded my expectation. While this is not a small investment, when I started to understand the complexity of the work and engineering involved, it does represent good value for money. It is difficult to 'value' improved security, I am sure I now sleep better at night and will be less concerned about security when away from home. What made the difference to me, is you personally ran the show 'end to end' I wish you all the best in the future and would have no hesitation recommending you to any household or business considering a similar project.
Regards,
Richard Logan

We have recently had a set of wrought iron gates fitted by arthur. We are delighted with the quality of the work, the reasonableness of the price and the professionalism involved from first discussions to completion. We would recommend this firm to anyone looking to have some electronic gates fitted. thank you arthur. Jim Morrisroe

They came They designed They manufactured They installed
We were completly satisfied, what more could you ask.
John Penrose GX
Hi arthur......having just finished the second job for us recently, thought it would be correct of me to drop you a line from both my wife and myself. Rarely I take this action but feel I have to compliment you and your firm for the quality of finished product fitted at our home.Additionally, your input in the design against a vague brief from ourselves has been much appreciated and to keep my wife on side with your inputs in this aspect is a definite compliment to you! Finally my thanks for completing both jobs on schedule and within agreed budgets and for your attention to detail in putting final touches to enhance the finished products. We have received very positive compliments from friends and family on your workmanship and have recommended you strongly to them should they require your specialised services......once again many thanks and best wishes. regards John & Mary (McConvey) Seer Green, Beaconsfield Bucks HP9 2YS

We decided to fit a security gate in an alleyway between myself and my neighbour we wanted to use a local company if possible, we contacted Ark Wrought Ironwork, Arthur came and talked through some options, he then manufactured a gate we are delighted with and now feel safer with our added security we would gladley supply a reference for his work if required.
Mr Richards - Langley
Arthur has installed a G.S.M. intercom system on our gates which is working well. He has also installed gates and controllers for two of my garden design clients. His work is thorough, efficient and reliable - well done.
Mrs Bryant - Ascot
When we decided the time had come to automate our gates a friend referred us to Ark Wrought. We were pleased with the pre sales service and it was obvious they were passionate about their business. The work was completed on time and to budget and we've had plenty of compliments from the neighbours.
D.S.
Over the past ten years my department at the Imperial College has used Ark Wrought Ironwork for the fabrication, welding and fitting of steel and metalwork covering projects from gates and barriers to other projects in secure areas. The professionalism shown has always been amongst the best of any of our contractors and the standard and quality of work is consistently of a very high standard and delivered to time and cost.
Mr David Bond
I am not the sort of person who would usually provide a testimonial but on this occasion I am happy to do so. Having seen the quality of work produced by Ark Wrought Ironwork for properties in our neighbourhood and hearing good things about them, we asked them to quote for railings to the front boundary and an automated gate system to the driveway. Arthur came to our house and listened to what we wanted, explaining how each part of the process would be carried out. He arranged to return two days later with the quotation. Arthur always informed us when his team was going to be on-site or when the team would be at the workshops manufacturing. To cut a long story short I will state that we were very impressed and pleased with all aspects of the service provided by Ark Wrought Ironwork, from the bound quotation, to the communication between Arthur and ourselves and of course, the finished product.
Mr Carter - Langley
We would like to thank you so much for your reliability, professionalism and trustworthiness. You gave us all the time and help with choosing everything and we couldn�t have asked for more. Thank you so much and we would always choose you for any future work.
Mrs Stevenson - Gerrards Cross
I would just like to say how pleased we were with the quality workmanship we recieved from Ark Wrought Ironwork when they installed some electric gates at our home. All Arthur's team were polite and courteous at all times, and the finished product is excellent, and would be only too pleased to recommend Arthur to any potentional customers.
Mr Lang- Gerrards Cross
We had been thinking of installing wrought gates and fencing for a long time and were eventually polarised into action after we were burgled. We were looking for a robust solution of high quality, attractively priced and delivered on time. Arthur and his team delivered on all counts! As a bonus we were really impressed with the enthusiasm and all round knowledge that seems to be the hallmark of the Arkwrought culture and work ethic. I would happily recommend Arthur and the Arkwrought team to anyone considering investing in an automated gate system.
Mr David Wren - Stoke Poges
Delighted with our service. Delighted with the company! Delighted with the result.
Mr McCarthy - Gerrards Cross
Arthur and Chris put in some security gates at my home. They asked me what I wanted and set to work measuring and designing. They produced a design which fulfilled all my requirements, gave me a price and then constructed an entrance which has made my family and I all feel much safer and are sleeping much better after we had intruders at 3 oclock in the mornining a few weeks earlier.They delivered on time, completed when they said they would. Everything was cleared up afterwards. They were great to deal with and I was left with an entrance system to which we are very pleased with.
S. K. - Holyport
Our experience with Ark Wrought Iron and Gate Automation can be summed up as follows: Listening to our requirements carefully and responding promptly. Preparation and good explanation of a well produced job spec. Completion of the project on time as promised. Quality workmanship in all respects. Follow up maintenance and response to any subsequent needs - always excellent. In short it has been a pleasure to deal with such a well run, reliable, and courteous company.
Jon Stephens - Langley
Thankyou for such a great job. The gates were delivered and installed hassle free, on time and within budget without any compromise on quality and service. I would certainly recommend you in the future.
S. S.
Just a short note to say thank you very much for your excellent service installing the new electric gates to our home. As you know we appointed you blind without personal recommendation, not knowing any friends or family that had any gates installed, and were slightly concerned about what and how you would deliver. I'm pleased to say that without exception your communication was excellent, keeping us informed at all stages and you provided exactly what you promised. Unfortunately in our experience it is rare to receive such good honest service and for that reason we have written to say thanks.
D. S. Abbotsbrook
Arkwrought were very helpful in designing the type of security closure system to suit our individual needs. They tailor-made it, which was perfect, and were very receptive to understanding every one of our exacting requirements. The job started and finished on schedule, on budget and the site was left in pristine order. Every small detail was attended to. We have absolutely no hesitation in recommending them to anyone else.
Mr Hardy - Gerrards Cross
I was very pleased with the work that Arthur's company carried out when they installed my gates. He was competetively priced and above all he carried out the work efficiently and on time. I feel much more secure as a result. I also appreciated that he was available when I had queries following the work.
Brea Stephens - Farnham Common
Dear Arthur, I just wanted to drop you a quick line to thank you for the excellent job you did installing my electrical gates. Sadly in this day and age, it actually comes as a surprise when people do what they say they will, on time and on budget!!! The after-sales service has been spot on too. Please feel free to forward my contact details to any prospective client who is considering using your services as I would be delighted to endorse your company. Kind regards
Mr Peter Smith - Stoke Poges
Arthur came to my home at my request to put in some security gates. They took one look at the mess my front entrance was in, asked me what I wanted and set to work measuring and designing. They produced a design which fulfilled all my requirements, gave me a price and then constructed an entrance which is the envy of all my neighbours! They delivered on time, completed when they said they would and, best of all, within budget. Everything was cleared up afterwards. There was a great deal of rotting tree trunks, overgrown bushes and the debris of builders from days gone by, but all disappeared and I was left with an entrance system with which I am delighted and which has not failed once. I cannot recommend them too highly: they are real craftsmen and extremely reliable and efficient.
Mr Kallipetis - Farnham Common
I live in a Victorian Gothic Revival lodge with a beautiful stone arched entrance from which the original gates were brutally removed in the Sixties. It was very important that the replacements looked right as they would be imposing. I did a lot of research and wasted a lot of time with unsuitable companies. And then I came across Ark Wrought Ironwork Limited. Arthur and Chris treated the work as a labour of love from start to finish. It was as important to them to get it just right as it was to me. They did a wonderful job. They were always courteous, respectful and caring and I'm delighted with the finished result. I recommend them highly and without hesitation.
