Penge has plenty of Victorian terraces, Edwardian houses and period conversions, often with narrow frontages and shared access considerations. Our designs take account of boundary lines, sightlines and the way vehicles approach from busy routes. For the electric gates Penge area homeowners choose most, we often recommend space-saving sliding gates where opening room is tight. Where there’s clearance, swing gates can create a classic, symmetrical look.
We start with a site survey, check levels and services, then recommend the best gate type and automation kit for your usage. Installation typically takes 2–4 days, including foundations, posts/track, electrics and full safety testing. You’ll get clear handover instructions, maintenance guidance and aftercare support. Many clients choose us because we’re only 15 minutes away and we keep disruption and mess to a minimum.
Working in the London Borough of Bromley, we’re used to the access challenges around Penge East station and nearby residential streets. Parking and deliveries can be tight, so we plan drop-offs and waste removal to reduce disruption. We also account for mixed surfaces—older paving, tarmac and garden borders—so gate foundations stay stable and aligned. Our approach suits everything from compact terraces to wider plots towards Beckenham and Sydenham.

Most installations in SE20 fall between £2,500 and £10,000, depending on size, materials and automation. Typical projects are £4,000–£7,000 for a quality gate set with reliable motors and safety features. Sliding gates can cost more if groundworks and a track are needed, while swing gates may need stronger posts. Intercom systems, remotes and bespoke designs also affect the final budget.
Electric gate installation usually takes 2–4 days from start on site to handover. Timescales depend on groundworks (new foundations, posts or a sliding track), electrical routing, and whether you’re replacing an existing gate. Bespoke metalwork or timber fabrication can add lead time before installation. We’ll confirm a schedule after the survey and keep access to your property as practical during the works.
In many cases, gates and driveway alterations are permitted development, but there are important exceptions. Height limits, visibility at the highway, and whether your property is listed or in a conservation area can change what’s allowed. We’ll talk you through the likely requirements and can advise on a compliant design. If permissions or approvals are needed, we’ll help you gather the right information before work begins.
We provide a 10-year warranty on workmanship, covering installation quality such as alignment, fixings and structural stability. Automation components (motors, control boards, safety devices and accessories) are covered by manufacturer warranties, which vary by brand and specification. We also test safety features on completion and show you how to operate the system correctly. If an issue arises, our local team can respond quickly for inspection and repairs.
You can choose sliding gates or swing gates in timber or metal, with styles ranging from traditional vertical bar designs to solid privacy panels.

After a site visit, we’ll recommend options that suit your frontage, security needs and daily parking routine.
