Every gate we build is bespoke. Browse our work by style below — metal, aluminium and iron gates, wooden gates in Iroko and Accoya timber, and our commercial installations — or get in touch to start designing yours.
A quick side-by-side before you dive into the galleries below.
| Style | Look & feel | Maintenance | Best suited to |
|---|---|---|---|
| Wooden (Iroko / Accoya) | Warm, natural, characterful | Low — occasional oiling for Iroko, virtually maintenance-free for Accoya | Period and country properties, natural settings |
| Metal | Strong, classic, versatile finishes | Low — powder-coated finishes resist corrosion for years | Most residential driveways and boundaries |
| Iron | Traditional, ornate, substantial | Moderate — benefits from periodic re-coating | Period homes, grand entrances |
| Aluminium | Sleek, modern, lightweight | Very low — naturally corrosion-resistant | Contemporary properties, low-maintenance living |
| Commercial | Functional, robust, built for volume | Low — specified for heavy daily use | Business premises, public sector, multi-site access |
Including Iroko and Accoya timber — both hardwearing, low-maintenance hardwoods well suited to the UK climate.
Iroko is a dense West African hardwood, often called "African teak." It's naturally resistant to rot, insects and warping without chemical treatment, with a rich golden-brown tone that weathers to a soft silvery-grey if left unfinished — a low-maintenance option with real character.
Accoya is a sustainably-sourced softwood that's been acetylated to match the durability and stability of tropical hardwoods, backed by a 50-year above-ground durability guarantee. It resists swelling and shrinking better than most timbers and takes paint or stain beautifully, making it ideal if you want a specific finish colour.
Traditional wrought iron and steel gates, built and finished for durability and kerb appeal, automated to the same security standards as every gate we install.
Automated gates, barriers and bollards for commercial and public sector sites — from single entrance gates to full multi-site traffic control.
It depends on the height, position and location of your property — for example, gates near a highway or over a certain height can require permission. We'll advise on this as part of your free site survey, before any work is agreed.
A straightforward single-gate residential installation is often completed within a few days, while bespoke ornate designs, long runs of railings or multi-gate commercial sites take longer. We'll give you a clear timeline as part of your quote.
Aluminium and Accoya timber are the lowest-maintenance options — aluminium is naturally corrosion-resistant and Accoya is dimensionally stable with a 50-year durability guarantee. Metal and Iroko wood need only occasional attention, while traditional iron benefits from periodic re-coating.
Yes. We design and fit the automation to suit the gate, weight and site — from sliding and swing gates to barriers and bollards — using BFT automation for reliable, long-lasting operation.
Yes. We regularly combine automated gates, video door entry and access control into a single, seamless system, so you can see and grant access to visitors from your smart device, wherever you are.
