About Us
We are Andy and Jude White and we purchased the business in November 2017 – known then as Affordable Gates Fences & Balustrades Ltd. In 2026 we renamed the company Artisan Gates & Fencing Ltd, though we still trade under the name AGF that our customers know us by.
Andy began as a Fabricator working as a Coach Builder in the 1980’s, manufacturing Caravans through to Fire Engines and Ambulances and finally Project Managing the first Mobile Surgical Unit in New Zealand.
Jude has gardened and fed our family of six from large vegie gardens and fruit trees planted over any property we have owned.
After 15 years of Hydraulic Hosing 24/7 it was time for a change. Andy’s passion for Architecture and Design mean’t when we saw the Gates and Fencing business for sale we knew we could combine our experience and passions.
We enjoy great design combined with quality workmanship, and we custom manufacture every gate and fence on-site. There’s a real satisfaction in seeing a job through from first design to a completed installation we’re proud to stand behind.
