A Guide To Choosing Electric Security Gates

Every single UK homeowner should have security in mind, especially at present with this global pandemic, and with house break-ins on the rise, you should have a security review. If your present front gates are far from ideal, there are state-of-the-art electric security gates that are fabricated to exact dimensions for a perfect fit. When thinking security, obviously you would have adequate CCTV coverage at the front of your property, and with security gates, you would have an intercom in order to communicate prior to opening the gates. As an extra, you can add a small digital screen that allows you to see who is outside.

Opening Styles

There are variations for residential gating, which would include the following:

  • Sliding Gates – ideal if you have limited space
  • Swing Gates – which could be a single gate, hinged on either side, or it could be a pair of gates that open inwards and meet at the centre

Your choice would be based on a few variables, the amount of space, the layout and, of course, your personal preference. The best option when looking at security gating is to search online and find a specialist firm like The UK Electric Gates Company, who are masters of their trade, offering quality bespoke gates using a range of materials. You might have a rustic residence and would like oak or mahogany gates, or for the futuristic look, a combination of black and stainless steel would be ideal. Wrought iron is another fabulous choice, perfect for period properties, and with bespoke solutions, anything is possible.

Electric Motors

The size of the motor would very much depend on the weight and size of the gates, and the technician would advise accordingly when he pays you a home visit. You can have the electric motor and gearing above or below the ground, which is another thing to discuss with the technician. It is preferable to have the motor and gearing under the ground if possible, as this gives it more protection, but the technician would make you aware of the various options. If you’re unsure about the type of gates you’d like, there are blogs that compare swing and sliding gates which might help you make up your mind.

Bespoke Solutions

There’s really no other way to go than made to measure, and with your choice of timber, steel, aluminium or wrought iron, there are many designs to choose from. Choosing the right style will boost the kerb appeal of your property, plus you have the added comfort of remote-control operation – great when it’s raining cats and dogs – and with automatic locking, your home is secure.

To fully explore the many options, search online for a gating specialist and they will show you many fine examples of previous projects and help you to choose the right design. Once everything is agreed, it’s just a question of scheduling the installation and the supplier would fabricate at their factory, in preparation for the day of installation.
