Your project in the canton of Aargau
Lying between Zurich and Basel, Aargau is crossed by the Aare, the Reuss and the Limmat, with the Rhine forming its northern edge. Its small historic towns include Aarau, known for its painted eaves, Baden with its old town above the Limmat, as well as Lenzburg and Zofingen. Around these centres, many residential districts of detached houses, rental blocks and newer estates have grown up, particularly in the Freiamt and along the main transport routes. The canton is German-speaking, but you are welcome to write your request in English. In the old town centres, work on façades or roofs may be subject to rules, so check with your municipality before setting a schedule. Give the municipality, postcode and building access, especially for work in the old centres of Aarau or Baden.
- For a village house along the Aare or the Reuss, mention whether the cellar has ever had damp problems.
- In an old town such as Baden or Aarau, explain how easily a works vehicle can reach the building.
- If you live in a recent condominium building, state whether the other co-owners have already given their agreement.
Gates, fences and railings in the canton of Aargau
For a project in the Freiamt or around Aarau, specify whether you need a fence, gate or terrace railing and the intended material and use. In old towns such as Baden, older balconies and outdoor staircases often retain wrought ironwork that is worth restoring rather than replacing; the municipality will tell you whether its design may be changed. Along the Aare and the Reuss, plots bordering riverbanks or embankments require solid anchoring in ground that is sometimes soft. In condominium buildings, the choice of a new balcony railing is discussed at the owners' meeting to keep the façade consistent.
- For a sliding gate on a gently sloping plot in the Freiamt, have the ground rail checked for level so the gate does not strain the motor.
- If you are renovating old ironwork in Baden, ask for stripping and anti-corrosion protection before the new coat of paint.

Frequently asked questions
What should I specify for a made-to-measure gate in Aargau?
Give the width of the opening, the slope of the ground and whether you want a swing or sliding gate. Specify the material, the style and whether you want motorisation or an intercom. Photos of the entrance help the company plan the installation.
What affects the choice between a sliding and a swing gate?
Available side space, ground slope and vehicle access affect how a gate can move. Provide photographs and approximate dimensions of the entrance. Ask the installer to assess foundations, clearances and controls before agreeing a layout, particularly where the gate opens near a shared route.
What should I compare in made-to-measure gates, fences and railings quotes?
Compare structure, finish, foundations and fitting, with motorisation and access controls separately specified. For railings, clarify the support and intended protective function. Ask how the completed installation is checked and which work on paving or adjoining surfaces is included.
How should I prepare for the made-to-measure gates, fences and railings visit or work?
Prepare a sketch of the entrance or edge to protect and mark known boundaries. Explain delivery and vehicle-access constraints. Keep access codes private, and agree permissions for shared property and any required specialist assessment before fabrication or site alterations proceed.
