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.

Screw bolts into gate and attach new gatch latch

$110

Rye VIC 3941, Australia

26th Oct 2026

I need someone experienced with gate repairs/handyman work to repair the latch and lock on my double driveway gate. The latch/lock hardware has come loose and some of the screws/bolts have come out. The left gate wooden post is just a bit loose from the soft soil (it's not broken or cracked) so needs to be secured upright so it doesn't move. I'm thinking a clip on top of the gate to make it easy to open / close gates without having to use down bolts on both gates. hardware needs to be properly reattached and secured. The job includes: Reattach and secure the existing gate down bolts Replace missing or damaged screws/bolts with suitable new ones Securely bolt/screw the fittings into the gate so they don't pull out again Put a the latch if necessary so both gates close Check the existing drop bolts/lower gate hardware and tighten where required Supply any appropriate screws, bolts, washers or other small fixings needed I've attached photos showing the gate, lock and existing holes. I'd like a strong, durable repair rather than simply putting the old screws back into damaged holes. Re: Supply of latch. I can buy it from Bunnings or you might have one on hand that can fit. Thanks Marc

Handyman Required – Install Colorbond Gates to Existing Carport

$300

Frankston South VIC 3199, Australia

23rd Oct 2026

Looking for an experienced handyman to install new Colorbond gates across an existing carport opening, in front of where a trailer is currently parked. The gates and hardware are onsite and my husband tried to install one gate which he did - maybe not correct. The carport has existing posts on both sides of the opening, which should be suitable for mounting, subject to inspection. Work required: * Install and securely mount the Colorbond gates to the existing carport posts. * Fit hinges, latch and supplied hardware. * Potentially add some timber framing to one side to achieve the correct fit. * Some additional screws, bolts or minor fixings into existing brickwork (small part on side) may be required. * Ensure the gates are level, secure and open and close properly. * Supply any minor additional timber or fixings required. Photos of the existing carport and the gates being supplied are attached. Looking for someone with experience installing gates, fencing or similar structures who has their own tools. When my husband did the one gate and remastered the opening is 40mm shorter than the gates when assembled. He doesn’t have tools or know how to shorted Colourbond so looking for someone who can assemble the larger gate, refit the gate he did and make it all work

Very punctual - done to a great standard. Very happy with the job. Highly recommend.
