Biggin Hill’s semi-rural setting means many properties have wider frontages, set-back entrances and generous parking—ideal for automation. We regularly work on large detached houses, bungalows and period properties where the right gate style matters as much as performance. Timber can complement traditional façades, while metal gates suit cleaner, architectural lines. Our designs also account for gradients and wind exposure common on higher ground around Berry's Green and Cudham.
We start with a site survey, check clearances, choose the safest opening method, and confirm power and cabling routes. You’ll receive a clear specification covering safety edges, photocells and manual release, followed by careful installation and testing. We keep disruption low, protect your driveway and planting, and leave everything working smoothly. Local homeowners choose us for dependable communication, neat workmanship and aftercare you can rely on.

Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
Most electric gate installations in Biggin Hill fall between £4,000 and £7,000, depending on size, materials and automation type. As a guide, the overall range is usually £2,500–£10,000. Sliding gates can cost more where extra groundworks or a longer track is needed, while swing gates may need stronger posts and hinges. Adding intercom systems, keypads and multiple remote controls will also affect the budget.
A typical installation takes 2–4 days from ground preparation to commissioning. Timescales depend on whether posts or piers need rebuilding, how far power and cabling must be run, and whether the driveway needs adjustment for a sliding track. Bespoke wooden or metal gates may require lead time for fabrication, but on-site work still usually fits within a few days. We confirm a schedule after the survey.
In many cases, electric gates are permitted development, particularly when they sit within your boundary and don’t exceed common height limits. However, rules can change if your property is listed, in a conservation area, or if the entrance affects highway visibility. We’ll flag any likely issues during the survey and help you understand what Bromley’s requirements may be before work starts. Safety compliance for powered gates is always essential.
We provide a 10-year warranty covering our workmanship and installation standards, giving you confidence that the gates are fitted correctly and built to endure. Manufacturer warranties apply to motors, control boards and accessories such as intercoms and remotes, with terms varying by brand. We’ll explain what’s covered, how to maintain the system, and what to do if you ever notice unusual noises, misalignment or intermittent operation.
We install wooden and metal electric gates in a wide range of styles, from traditional close-board timber to contemporary slatted or wrought designs.

We’ll help you balance privacy, visibility, maintenance needs and the look of your home so the gates feel like part of the property.
