Seaside Exposure
Weather off the water is unforgiving on anything mechanical. We specify the finish, the fixings and the automation enclosure for it from the outset.

Electric Gates in Porthcawl
Porthcawl is a Victorian and Edwardian resort town that kept growing, so you get seafront villas and period terraces near the front, then substantial detached housing on the higher ground behind, and modern estates further back again.
The seafront properties and the ones behind them need different answers. Near the front the priority is a finish that survives the weather and automation that will not seize; further back, on the larger inland plots, it is usually a straightforward swing pair with room to spare.
Porthcawl is about forty-five minutes from our unit, straight down the M4 to junction 37. 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 Porthcawl
We fit electric gates across Porthcawl and the surrounding area — aluminium, timber and steel, as swing pairs or tracked sliding gates, with the automation chosen to suit the weight and the traffic. Installed prices start at £6,995 including VAT for the Essential range, rising to £10,200 including VAT for Premium bespoke work.
Nothing leaves site without a force test, working photocells and safety edges, and a written handover explaining the manual release. You can price an aluminium entrance yourself with our gate builder before speaking to anyone.
Automatic gates in Porthcawl can be added to existing pillars where those pillars are sound.
Wind Loading
An infilled leaf on an exposed plot catches the wind like a sail. We size the posts and automation for the exposure, and often suggest a more open infill than you first had in mind.
Pedestrian Gates
A matching side gate keeps people out of the vehicle opening, which is better for safety and saves cycling the main gates a dozen times a day.
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.

Driveway Gates Built for Porthcawl Properties
Where an entrance in Porthcawl is shared, driveway gates need access control that the neighbours can live with as well.

Gate Servicing and Maintenance in Porthcawl
South-westerlies come straight in off the channel, carrying salt a long way inland. We would rather fit the right finish at the start than replace corroded hardware in three years.
We take on gates in Porthcawl regardless of who fitted them, and work across all the main automation brands. An annual service visit is £234 per gate system, including VAT.
Plenty of our gate automation work in Porthcawl is on gates that were hung manually years ago and have earned an upgrade.
Our garage doors in Porthcawl come in up and over, roller shutter and sectional, all available with electric operation.
A gate that judders or reverses needs gate repairs in Porthcawl before it becomes a safety issue.
Annual Servicing
One visit a year keeps the moving parts right and the safety devices working, and it is when we catch the fault before it becomes a call-out.
Repairs, Any Brand
Gate not opening, motor failure, photocell or intercom faults, repaired on any make of automation whether or not we installed it.
Safety Checks & Force Testing
Photocells, safety edges and a measured force test. If your gate has never had one, it is worth booking before you need the paperwork.

Common questions
Electric gates in Porthcawl — your questions.
Our Essential aluminium range starts at £6,995 including VAT for a fitted 3m × 1.6m double swing gate with above-ground automation, and a tracked sliding gate in Porthcawl starts at £9,954 including VAT as a complete system. You can price an aluminium entrance yourself with our gate builder before speaking to anybody.
Most Porthcawl installations are a day or two on site once the groundwork and the power are sorted. What adds time is anything underground — foundation boxes and drainage — or a new supply run to the entrance.
It comes down to space at your Porthcawl 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 Porthcawl repair is often one visit, and where a system is genuinely finished we will say so rather than keep patching it.
