Gradient & Ground Levels
A drive that climbs is the single most common reason a swing pair will not work. We measure the fall across the opening at survey, before anything is ordered.

Electric Gates in Wotton-under-Edge
Wotton-under-Edge sits at the foot of the Cotswold escarpment, and the town shows it. Stone terraces and listed buildings fill the centre inside a conservation area, while larger detached houses climb the slope behind, several with drives that rise sharply from the road.
Gradient is the first thing we measure. On the escarpment side the drives climb hard enough that a swing gate would need significant ground work to open cleanly, so a tracked sliding gate along the boundary is usually the sensible answer. In the conservation centre, style and height need agreeing first.
Wotton-under-Edge is about forty minutes from our unit, over the bridge and up the M5. 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 Wotton-under-Edge
We fit electric gates across Wotton-under-Edge 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. Our Essential range starts at £6,995 including VAT, installed, with Premium from £10,200 including VAT for bespoke work.
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.
Automatic gates in Wotton-under-Edge need a safe stopping distance from the road, which is why they open inwards.
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.
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.
