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 gatesÂ
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 gatesÂ
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 Automatic Gate Arm Bracket - Timber Fence
$100
Lindfield NSW, Australia
3rd May 2026
The mounting bracket for my automatic gate opener has pulled out of the timber rail. I need a handyman to securely re-attach it so it can handle the tension of the motor. The job involves: • Reinforcing the mount: The original holes are stripped and show some rust staining. You will likely need to use larger timber structural screws or, ideally, bolt through the rail with a backing plate for maximum strength. • Re-aligning the arm: Ensuring the gate closer (piston) is level and functions smoothly without straining the motor. • Weatherproofing: Applying a bit of wood filler or sealant to the old holes to prevent further rot/rust. Details: • Material: Painted timber fence rail. • Equipment: Please bring a drill, heavy-duty timber fasteners (Coach screws or through-bolts), and basic wood repair tools. • Timing: Flexible, but looking to get it fixed within the next few days. Advice for the Fix • Don't just use bigger screws: Since those holes look a bit "blown out," simply putting a larger screw in might only work for a few weeks. • The "Through-Bolt" Method: Ask the Tasker if they can use "cup head bolts" that go all the way through the timber to the other side with a large washer and nut. This is the only way to ensure an automatic closer doesn't rip out again.

Experienced Fencer Needed to Repair and Reinforce Side Timber Gate
$200
Harlaxton QLD, Australia
31st May 2026
I need an experienced fencing contractor or handyman to repair my side timber gate in Toowoomba. Please note that some of the attached photos were taken before the gate fully collapsed, so its current condition is worse than shown in some images. I am looking for a proper long-term repair, not a temporary fix. The job includes inspecting the gate, frame and posts, rehanging and realigning the gate, and replacing all worn or damaged hardware with new heavy-duty components, including hinges, latches, catches and any other fittings required. I would like a heavy-duty drop bolt (slide-down ground bolt) installed to secure the gate when closed, as well as an additional heavy-duty sliding bolt or locking bolt fitted around the middle of the gate so it can be securely locked and supported when required. Any additional support hardware needed to prevent future sagging or failure should also be installed. I would also like a suitable hold-open mechanism fitted so the gate can be secured in the open position and not swing shut in windy conditions. Please inspect the existing posts and advise whether any post movement may have contributed to the failure. I am looking for someone experienced in gate and fencing repairs who can provide a strong, reliable repair that will last, as I intend to replace the entire fence at a later date. Please quote including labour and materials and provide details of your experience with similar gate repairs.
Brady came out to repair my broken gate.He assessed the job quickly,did excellent work and the gate is now solid and working great.He was professional ,efficient and fair on the price.Great person to work with and I’d definitely hire him again.

Looking to get a basic timber gate built and installed on the side of our house. Approx width would be 1.7m. There was a metal fence there previously so it already has some fence posts. Slight incline also. Won’t need it painted, just need it installed
Warren & Justin did a great job of putting up a timber gate. Excellent communication, super quick turnaround and very happy with the result. Thanks guys!

I have an existing timber fence going to a side patio. I am installing the patio roof. After this, I can’t use the existing gate since it is against the pillars. I need to permanently seal this door and make a new door for entry. I am also open to other options.
