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.

$350
Camberwell VIC 3124, Australia
4th Oct 2026
Looking for an experienced painter/handyman with excellent attention to detail to finish some timber work at our home in Camberwell. For the baby gates: * Leave the existing natural timber gate frames exactly as they are. * Leave the black hinges as they are. * Fill screw holes, joins and any rough/unfinished areas in the added timber mounting posts/blocks only. * Sand those posts smooth, prime and paint them in a high-quality white lustre / satin finish so they blend neatly with the existing white staircase and look professionally finished. * Care needs to be taken around the acrylic panels, hinges and latch hardware. For the 2 timber Adirondack chairs: * Prepare/lightly sand as required. * Repaint in a high-quality white lustre finish. * Apply an appropriate durable exterior protective finish/sealer. The chairs sit under a covered verandah. Please bring your own sanding equipment, filler, primer, brushes/rollers, drop sheets, PPE/gloves and other tools.

Supply & Install Timber Side Gate
$750
Kew VIC 3101, Australia
3rd Oct 2026
Looking for an experienced carpenter, fencer, or handy person to supply, build, paint, and install a pedestrian side gate between our house wall and the boundary fence. Task Details: Dimensions: Approx. 120 cm wide x 1.8 m high (matching boundary fence line; site check required).

Fence-Side Fixing: Securely anchored into existing boundary fence post/framing. Ground Clearance (CRITICAL): Must be puppy-proof. Install a low-profile timber plinth across the gravel so the closed gate has <25mm clearance without dragging on stones when opening.

Tasker to Supply: Steel gate frame (or adjustable frame kit), Treated pine palings/battens, posts/timbers, and base plinth, Colorbond Monument exterior paint/stain, Heavy-duty hinges, double-sided key-lockable gravity latch, and structural fixings What to Include in Your Offer: - Confirm your quote covers full supply of all materials, latch, painting, and labour. - Briefly explain how you plan to anchor the post on the clad wall side. - Your availability and photos of previous gate installations.

I require a double door gate installed at my father's property. The height to be approx 1.8m high x 2.3m wide. He prefers a steel frame with a material that can't be seen through, so no gaps.

Replace the hinges on a wrought iron garden gate.
$200
Kew VIC 3101, Australia
1st Oct 2026
I need a welder or metalworker to replace the two hinges on a wrought iron garden gate. This budget is for labour only. I will supply and pay for the hinges and fixings separately. Please do not include hardware costs in your offer. The gate: Single leaf, approximately 2 metres wide Open picket style, estimated 40–80kg Both the gate frame and the gate post are hollow steel square tube Street-facing front gate on a brick pier Existing hinges are old hand-made welded barrel hinges, rusted and worn Photos are attached — please look at them before making an offer. Scope of work: Support the gate, cut off the two existing welded hinges and grind the surfaces flush Weld the gate-side half of each new hinge to the gate frame. Tack weld and check alignment first, then complete the welds using a staggered sequence to avoid distortion Mark out, drill and bolt the post-side half to the hollow post using through-bolts with backing washers or plates, or rivnuts — not self-tapping screws alone, as the top hinge carries a tensile load Check the gate swings level, closes correctly and does not scrape Clean the welds and touch up all bare metal with cold galvanising primer and a matching topcoat Hinges: I will supply weld-on / bolt-on gate hinges rated to at least 150kg. Please tell me in your offer: What fixing method you would use on the hollow square post Whether you need me to purchase any specific bolts, rivnuts or backing plates so I can have them on site before you arrive I have a second gate of the same type. If this job goes well I will book you for that one as well — you are welcome to quote both leaves together if you prefer. Requirements: Own MIG or stick welding equipment, plus angle grinder, drill and metal drill bits Access to power, or your own generator Demonstrated experience with gate and fence welding — please mention similar jobs in your offer

Fantastic work! He went far beyond my expectations and was incredibly thorough. He noticed many issues I hadn’t even considered and used his expertise to fix them properly. He replaced poor timber, added a latch, and adjusted the gate’s height and angle so it closes perfectly. None of these were in my original requirements. I’m very grateful for his care and professionalism. Highly recommended!

Old iron pedestrian gate at front house in Kew, mounted to a brick pillar. Bottom hinge is missing but the gate still swings on the top hinge. new hinge really needed to match existing one or close to it. Two issues: Gate will not latch shut – latch and/or striker need realignment or replacement. Gate will not swing fully open due to raised ground from tree roots in front of it – need small adjustment/trim at bottom of gate to regain clearance. Looking for someone to restore both reliable closing and full swing with minimal visual change to the existing gate
