Electric gates & access
Bespoke automated gates, barriers and access control designed to suit your property and the way you use it.
Designed around your site
Effortless arrival, controlled access and a gate designed for the property.
Automation is a system, not an add-on. Gate weight, geometry, wind exposure, power, drainage and safe movement all need to work together.
We listen to what the boundary needs to achieve, assess the practical constraints and turn those decisions into a clear written specification. You see the agreed materials, scope and programme before installation begins.

Helpful detail
Electric gates questions.
These are useful starting points. A site survey is the best way to confirm the right specification.
Can an existing gate be automated?+
Sometimes. We first check its structure, hinges, geometry and suitability for safe automation. A new gate may be recommended where modification would compromise reliability.
What happens during a power cut?+
Appropriate manual release arrangements are included so authorised users can operate the gate when power is unavailable.
Do you service and repair electric gates?+
Yes. We can inspect, service and fault-find automated gate and access-control systems.
