Period & Listed Property
Next to a listed building the gate has to sit comfortably with what is already there. That usually means timber or a painted steel, and a design agreed before anything is cut.

Electric Gates in Llandaff
Llandaff is a cathedral village inside the city, with period properties around the Green, Cardiff Road and Bridge Street.
A good deal of Llandaff is covered by conservation area status and some properties are listed, so gate height, style and finish all need thinking about early. Frontages are often narrow, which can rule out swing leaves and point towards a sliding gate.
Llandaff is roughly forty minutes from us, just off the A48. 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.
01
Electric Gate Installation in Llandaff
Electric gates in Llandaff are fitted by us end to end, in aluminium, timber and steel, with the automation sized to the weight of the leaf. The published starting figures are £6,995 including VAT for Essential and £10,200 including VAT for Premium, both fully installed.
We measure the closing forces on completion, fit photocells and safety edges as standard, and talk you through the manual release in person. You can price an aluminium entrance yourself with our gate builder before speaking to anyone.
We would sooner talk you out of the wrong automatic gates in Llandaff than fit them and be called back.
Narrow Lane Access
Single-track approaches limit both the delivery and how far a leaf can open before it is into the road. Both get checked at survey.
Electric Sliding Gates
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.
Aluminium Electric Gates
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.
02
Driveway Gates Built for Llandaff Properties
Driveway gates on a slope in Llandaff need thinking about early, because a gate that clears the ground closed may catch when it opens.
03
Gate Servicing and Maintenance in Llandaff
Older gates in Llandaff are often timber on original ironwork. We can service the automation and advise honestly on whether the gate itself is worth automating further.
Servicing and repairs across Llandaff on any make of automation, installed by us or not. £234 including VAT per gate system for the annual visit.
If you are replacing failed gate automation in Llandaff, the gates themselves are often perfectly sound.
Garage doors in Llandaff are a smaller job than the gates and often the one that gets put off longest.
A gate stuck open is a security problem, so gate repairs in Llandaff of that kind get priority in the diary.
Motor & Control Gear Faults
Boards, capacitors, limit switches and receivers. Most failures are one component rather than the whole system, and we say which.
Photocell & Sensor Faults
Beams that trigger on sunlight, leaves or nothing at all. Usually alignment or a failing sensor rather than the whole safety system.
Gate Not Closing
Limit switches, obstruction sensing and worn hinges are the usual three. We diagnose before quoting rather than replacing the motor on principle.
