Sevenoaks is known for large detached houses, period properties and executive homes, and the gate style needs to suit the architecture. For traditional frontages, timber gates can be crafted to match existing fencing and brick piers. For contemporary builds, powder-coated metal gates deliver crisp lines and long-term durability. If you’re in the electric gates Sevenoaks area such as Dunton Green or Kemsing, we’ll also factor in road visibility, gradients and turning space.
Our process starts with a site survey, clear recommendations and a written specification covering safety edges, photocells and manual release. We handle groundworks, posts, cabling, automation and commissioning, then show you how to use the system and maintain it. Homeowners choose us for punctual scheduling, clean working practices and dependable aftercare. For electric gates in Sevenoaks District, we build to last and stand behind the workmanship.
Across Sevenoaks District we often encounter sloping drives, mature tree roots and mixed surfacing that affect foundations and gate tracking. Parking and access can be tight near Sevenoaks High Street, so we plan deliveries and waste removal to keep things moving. We also design around established brick piers and boundary walls common in TN13 and TN14. The result is an installation that looks intentional and operates smoothly year-round.

Most installations in Sevenoaks fall between £4,000 and £7,000, with a wider typical range of £2,500 to £10,000 depending on size, materials and automation. Sliding gates can cost more where a track, groundwork or additional safety equipment is needed. Intercom systems, keypad entry, upgraded motors and bespoke metalwork also affect the budget. We’ll survey your driveway and provide an itemised estimate.
Electric gate installation usually takes 2–4 days, depending on groundwork, power supply routing and whether new posts or piers are required. Straightforward swing gates on existing solid supports can be quicker, while sliding gates may need more preparation for levels and tracking. Weather, curing times for concrete, and the complexity of intercom wiring can also extend the programme. We confirm timings after the site survey.
