Frequently Asked Questions
How do I choose the right gate design for my home?
Choosing the right gate design depends on your property layout, available space, and whether you want manual or automated operation. Swing gates are great for wider driveways with enough clearance to open inward or outward, while sliding gates are better suited to smaller or sloped driveways. You should also consider your preferred material – such as aluminium, steel or timber-look – and whether you’d like to add automation, security features or decorative elements to suit your home’s style.
What’s the difference between a manual and an automated gate?
A manual gate requires physical effort to open and close, while an automated gate operates using a motor and can be controlled with remotes, keypads or access systems. Automated gates are ideal for convenience, especially in poor weather or when quick entry and exit is important. They can also enhance security, particularly when paired with intercoms or cameras. Manual gates are generally more affordable upfront, but automated gates offer greater ease of use over time.
Can I install an automated gate on a sloped driveway?
Yes – but it depends on the type of automation and gate style. Sliding gates are often preferred for sloped driveways, as they don’t require the same clearance as swing gates and can be installed to follow the gradient. Swing gates can be automated on a slope, but may need special hinges or raked designs to prevent dragging. A site inspection is the best way to determine what will work and ensure long-term performance.
