Planning & Consent
In a conservation area the council has a view on what stands at your boundary. Getting that view early costs a fortnight; getting it late costs a gate.
Bath is a World Heritage city, and much of the housing that suits an automated entrance is Georgian, listed, or inside a conservation area — often all three.
That makes consent the first conversation, not the last. Style, height and finish all matter to the council, and hillside properties bring steep, curving approaches that dictate whether swing or sliding is even possible. We would rather tell you that at survey than after manufacture.
Bath is about fifty minutes from our unit, straight down the M4 and A46. Send us a couple of photographs and rough measurements of your entrance and we will come back with a realistic figure before anyone books a visit.

We design, make and install electric gates for properties in Bath, matching the material and the automation to the entrance rather than the other way round. Essential begins at £6,995 installed, including VAT, and Premium at £10,200 including VAT where the design or access control goes beyond standard.
Safety devices are fitted and set, the forces are measured, and the handover pack covers isolation and manual release. You can price an aluminium entrance yourself with our gate builder before speaking to anyone.
Automatic gates in Bath come as swing pairs or a single sliding leaf, decided by the opening rather than by taste.

In a conservation area the council has a view on what stands at your boundary. Getting that view early costs a fortnight; getting it late costs a gate.

On a steep approach the gate has to work with the slope rather than against it. Sliding along the boundary is usually the answer, and it needs a properly founded track.

The answer where the drive slopes, where the opening is wide, or where you cannot give up the space behind the gate line. The motor sits in the post and the leaf runs along the boundary.

Light, rust-free and almost no upkeep, which makes it the easiest material to automate. Powder coated in black, grey or a custom RAL, with woodgrain finishes available.
We fit electric driveway gates throughout Bath, in aluminium, timber and steel, sized to the opening rather than to a standard range.
Listed and conservation properties often have older gates worth preserving. We service and automate existing gates as well as supplying new ones.
Whoever fitted your gate, we will look at it. We work on Nice, CAME, BFT, FAAC, Beninca and DEA across Bath, and an annual service is £234 per gate system, including VAT.
Before quoting gate automation in Bath we check the power at the entrance, because a new spur can cost more than the motors.
Garage doors in Bath can be matched to the gates in colour and finish so the frontage reads as one thing.
Our gate installers in Bath carry out gate repairs as well as new work, so the same firm sees it through.
Limit switches, obstruction sensing and worn hinges are the usual three. We diagnose before quoting rather than replacing the motor on principle.
Older systems can often keep the gate and gain modern control gear, app access and current safety devices for a fraction of a replacement.
Wind damage and vehicle strikes on leaves, posts and rams. Straightened, repaired or replaced, and re-force-tested afterwards.
Whether you call them electric gates, automatic gates or automated gates, they are the same thing — and our electric gate installers fit, automate and look after all of it in Bath and the surrounding area.
We pride ourselves on offering an unparalleled service to our clients. Here are just a few reasons why our clients recommend us.
For most homes in Bath the answer starts at £6,995 including VAT for a fitted aluminium double gate with above-ground automation. The survey confirms a fixed price, and its fee comes off the installation if you go ahead.
It comes down to space at your Bath entrance. If the leaves can swing back into the property, a pair of swing gates is usually the cheaper answer. If not, or the opening is wider than about five metres, a tracked sliding gate is the sensible choice.
We do — it is the bulk of our repair work. We carry parts for the common makes, so a Bath repair is often one visit, and where a system is genuinely finished we will say so rather than keep patching it.
There is a manual release on every installation. We walk you through it before we leave your Bath property, and it is checked again at each annual service.
Tell us about your opening and we will come back with a realistic price, then arrange a site survey in Bath.
