From Streatham High Road to the quieter streets near Streatham Common, homeowners want secure access without the daily hassle of manual gates. Our electric gate installations are built around how you use your drive—school runs, deliveries, visitor parking and evening arrivals. We design gates that look right on period frontages and modern plots alike. Expect a tidy, well-managed install with clear communication throughout.
Streatham’s mix of Victorian and Edwardian houses, mansion flats and newer apartments means entrances vary hugely—narrow side drives, shared accessways and wider front gardens. We regularly work across Streatham Hill, Streatham Common and Streatham Vale, adapting layouts to boundary lines and existing brick piers. Whether you need a compact sliding gate for limited swing space or a statement pair of swing gates, we’ll match proportions, materials and finishes to your property.
We start with a site survey, confirm measurements, check levels and discuss safety requirements before recommending the best gate type and automation. Installation typically takes 2–4 days, including groundwork, posts, motors, safety edges and commissioning. We test operation thoroughly, set up remotes and intercom access, and show you how to use manual release for peace of mind. Local homeowners choose us for dependable scheduling, neat workmanship and a 10-year warranty.
Working in the London Borough of Lambeth often means managing on-street parking, narrow access and busy traffic routes around SW16 and SW2. We plan deliveries and waste removal to keep disruption down, and we’re used to setting gates square on sloping drives and older thresholds. Period properties around Streatham Park can have existing piers and boundary walls that need careful fixing and alignment. Our designs account for sightlines, pedestrian safety and reliable daily use.

For electric gates in the Streatham area, most installations fall between £4,000 and £7,000, with a wider range of roughly £2,500 to £10,000 depending on size and specification. Costs vary with sliding vs swing design, materials (wooden or metal), groundwork, and the automation kit. Adding intercom systems, extra remotes, safety edges or new piers can increase the overall budget.
Most electric gate installs take 2–4 days from start to commissioning. Timing depends on whether we’re fitting new posts or working with existing piers, the amount of groundwork needed for power and cabling, and if the drive needs levelling for smooth operation. Sliding gates can take longer if a track or substantial foundation is required. We’ll confirm a clear schedule after the site survey.
In many cases, electric gates are permitted development, especially when replacing existing gates or staying within typical height limits. However, rules can change if your property is in a conservation area, the gates front a highway, or the design significantly alters the boundary. We’ll discuss your specific site in Streatham, check likely constraints, and advise if a planning application or additional approvals are sensible before installation.
We provide a 10-year warranty covering our installation workmanship, including fixings, alignment and structural fitting of posts and gate leaves. Automation components (motors, control boards, safety devices and intercom equipment) are covered under the relevant manufacturer warranty, and we’ll handle any warranty issues with you. We also test and commission the system on completion, ensuring safe operation and reliable access from day one.
We install sliding gates and swing gates in both wooden and metal finishes, tailored to your entrance width and available space. Popular choices include hardwood or treated softwood gates for a warm, traditional look, and powder-coated metal gates for low maintenance and crisp lines. We can add intercom systems, keypad entry and multiple remote controls. We’ll guide you on style, privacy level and durability to suit your property.
