Check the side run

Open, the gate parks beside the opening, so it needs clear wall on one side. We check the wall, the ground level and anything in the way before we quote.

Track and rollers

Made for your measured opening. Keep the track clear and service it as the supplied instructions say.

Swing or slide?

If a gate has room to swing open, the swing garden gate is the simpler mechanism.

Finish

Powder coating, sandblasting and primer, electroplating or hot-dip galvanising. The finish sets how long the paint and rust cover lasts where you live; the warranty page has the table. Galvanising or a non-standard colour adds a week to the 15 to 21 working days.

Questions about Sliding Garden Gate

Can I customise the design and colour of my gate?

Yes. Choose from our design library or send your own. Standard colours are bronze, charcoal, white and sand; any other colour adds about a week.

What lock types do you offer and which is most secure?

Trellis doors take a slam lock, a deadlock or both, up to three locks per door; one is fitted as standard. Hook locks have an anti-lift pin, and electromagnetic locks are available.

A slam lock locks itself when the door closes; a deadlock needs the key. Two locks are harder to force than one.
