What does a gate installation service include?

You can get help with anything to do with gates, from gate selection and installation to repair and maintenance. Most gate installers are experienced with a range of fencing types, and can choose a gate to match your existing fence, or help install a fence alongside your gate.


Here are some of the most common types of gates and what you can expect with each service:


Automatic gates 


Need automatic gates or electric gates installed or repaired? These are a popular option for driveways, with everything securely locked away and you don’t even have to get out of your car to open or close it. Your technician will have experience with automatic gate openers, including how to set up access so that your gate can open smoothly via a buzzer, remote, keypad, or intercom. They’ll measure the area and recommend the best gate type to fit, with the most suitable opening methods (swinging or sliding). Your gate installer can order in your gate materials, before installing everything onsite and showing you how to operate your new gate.


Swinging gates 


Swinging gates are the most popular gate type because they’re simple to operate, with your gate suspended on a hinge, and held in place with a latch. Your gate installer will help recommend a gate style that will fit with your existing fence and other features, whether you need timber gates, aluminium gates, or even glass. They’ll order in the materials and assemble your gate onsite, ensuring its level and properly secured at the hinges. Finally, they’ll attach a latch at the correct height for easy opening and closing - with the option to padlock your gate for added security.


Sliding gates


Sliding gates are ideal for homes with limited space on either side of the gate, or for larger gates along driveways, where a swinging gate isn’t practical. Your gate installer will begin by measuring the area and recommending some suitable sliding gates to fit. They’ll order in the materials and begin by installing your footings and metal tracks for the gate to roll on. Next, they’ll put in place posts for your gate. Then they’ll insert wheels into the bottom of your gate and slide it onto the track and lock it into place. Sliding gates do need regular maintenance to ensure they’re clean and well lubricated, and you may need to book sliding gate repair if your gate stops working smoothly or gets damaged.


Pool gates


If you have a pool, you’ll need at least one or two gates for safe access to your pool area. Your pool gate installer will help you select a gate that matches your pool fence, whether glass or aluminium. They’ll install your gate between fence posts, ensuring it meets the regulations for your local area. Common regulations include self-closing and self-latching, latches at a minimum height, and only outwards-opening. If your pool gate doesn’t open or close properly, you’ll need to book pool gate repairs as soon as possible to ensure your pool is safe and compliant.

Repair timber side gate: replace hinges, fit new latch and handle

$280

Subiaco WA 6008, Australia

25th Aug 2026

Looking for a carpenter or experienced handyman to repair an old timber side gate at a Subiaco property. It is a heavy ledged and braced gate, arched top, hung on a timber post fixed to a limestone wall. The gate swings inward. ISSUES: 1. The gate has dropped and now rubs on the closing side so it does not shut properly. The existing pin-and-strap hinges are worn and rusting. Both hinges need replacing and the gate rehung square. 2. The ring handle has come off and the latch no longer works. The timber around the old handle is split and the screw holes are chewed out, so it needs making good before new hardware is fitted. 3. There is a split with some rot at the top of the closing stile that needs cutting back, filling or splicing, and repainting. SCOPE: - Replace both hinges with heavy duty galvanised or stainless through-bolted hinges and rehang the gate square so it closes and latches cleanly - Repair the timber around the handle and at the top of the closing stile - Supply and fit a new two-part gate latch (D&D LokkLatch Deluxe S3 or equivalent) that operates and locks from both sides. Pack out the latch post with a hardwood mounting block if the existing face is too narrow. - Refit the existing cast ring handle as a pull, repairing the split timber behind it - Plane the closing edge only if genuinely required after rehanging, and seal any cut edge NOTES: - Please diagnose and correct the drop first. I do not want the gate simply planed to clear the rub. - Hardware will be supplied, or quote for it separately. - Please bring your own tools, and a small offcut of hardwood in case the latch post needs packing out. - Must be comfortable working with older timber and fixing into limestone or render if the post needs attention. - Happy to send photos of the hinges, handle and closing stile.
