This particular customer reached out to us after seeing a reel on his Instagram. He was searching for a very specific gate and when he saw it on our page he new that that was the driveway gate he wanted.
The sliding gate itself was a soft curved composite gate in a black frame with black composite infill.
The customer had been doing a lot of home renovation and decided that a driveway gate to secure his gate entrance would be perfect.
So after going on a quote and measuring up we drafted him a free quote and got to work.
The Fabrication
After the quotation was approved we drafted the gates to precise specifications as part of our made-to-measure service, before beginning fabrication and profiling at our Tuxford workshop.
We constructed the frame using heavy-gauge steel fabricating the cantilever gate to exact measurements Heavy-section posts were also fabricated. Once the steelwork was complete, we sanded the frame to automotive standards to achieve an exceptionally smooth finish perfect and necessary for when powder coating.
Once dry the gates were moved into our finishing booth where they were test fitted and adjusted before all composite boards were cut to size and inserted. The Sliding Gate was now ready to be sent to site.
The Automation: Premium Electric Swing Gate Technology
Our electric sliding gates come standard with high-performance above-ground DEA motors. We meticulously select each motor based on the specific weight and dimensions of your gates to ensure long-term reliability.
DEA motors lead the industry with top-of-the-marketfeatures, including:
- Advanced Onboard Safety Encoding: Precision obstacle detection for peace of mind.
- State-of-the-Art Bluetooth Integration: A seamless programming and management system for easy adjustments.
- Heavy-Duty Housing: Our control boards are factory-mounted in modern, sleek steel enclosures. These provide ample space for additional power supplies or custom controllers as your security needs evolve.
Safety and Compliance
We prioritize a safety-first approach. Our cantilever driveway gates are always fitted with the top off the market carriages and tracks for smooth and safe running.
Because this gate utilizes a cantilever design, it eliminates the trip hazards and maintenance issues associated with floor tracks. Our safety configuration is designed to meet and exceed all current UK safety and conformity regulations.
To complete the safety suite, we install wall-mounted photocells and a high-grade GSM system, providing both security and convenient remote access for the user.
The Gate Installation
Efficiency and quality are the hallmarks of our installation process. Once our expert installers arrived on-site, the posts were set, the automation was calibrated, and the gates were hung with precision.
Our in-house groundworkers managed all necessary site alterations, ensuring the driveway and entrance were left in pristine condition. The installation was completed well ahead of the deadline and, as always, executed to the highest industry standards.
