What does a gate installation services in London 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 these types of gates, 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.

Replace back gate with secure, attractive private entrance
£1,500
Wandsworth, Greater London, SW18
23rd Aug 2026
I’m looking to replace my existing back gate at my property in Wandsworth. The aim is to create a secure, good-quality entrance that functions almost like a private entrance to the property, rather than just a basic garden gate. I’m open to the material and design — timber, composite, aluminium or another suitable option — but the finished gate should: - Look attractive and complement the property - Feel substantial and well-finished - Provide good privacy and security - Have a good-quality lock/latching system - Be durable and suitable for regular daily use - Include any necessary replacement/repair of the frame, posts or hinges - Be properly fitted and finished rather than a basic like-for-like replacement I’m open to suggestions from someone experienced in gates and external entrances, particularly if you can recommend a design that gives it a more premium/private-entrance feel. Budget: £900–£1,200, depending on the final design/materials. I’m willing to go up to £1,350 for a genuinely bespoke/high-quality solution if justified. Timing: As soon as practical. I’d ideally like someone to assess the existing gate/opening and advise on the best solution before proceeding.

Denmark Hill, Greater London, SE5

A garden gate was broken so removed, which has left out garden open to the elements. My son was going to install it, but he's been in hospital for 6 weeks with an infection etc. Gate is wooden and been assembled, and lumbar has been bought and needs to be cut down for the supports.
Kevin and his son were fantastic to work with. Very punctual, polite, and great at keeping me in the loop. A job that had been sitting on my to-do list for over two months was sorted in under an hour. Really happy with their work and would highly recommend them!
