From busy school-run mornings to late-night arrivals from Wallington station, automated access makes life easier. We design and install electric gates that suit Wallington’s residential streets, including Beddington and Hackbridge. Whether your driveway is tight or wide, we’ll recommend the right opening style and safety setup. Expect a clean finish that complements your frontage rather than overpowering it.
Wallington’s mix of 1930s semis, Victorian terraces and modern developments often comes with varied driveway widths, levels and boundary lines. We’re used to working with brick piers, rendered walls and newer composite fencing, matching gate proportions to the property. If you’re updating a tired frontage, we can align the gate design with existing paths, planting and lighting. The result looks intentional and adds value as well as security.
We start with a site survey, measure clearances and check power and drainage routes before confirming a specification. Installation typically takes 2–4 days, including automation, safety edges and commissioning. Every system is tested thoroughly, and we show you how to use remotes, intercom and manual release. Homeowners choose us for tidy workmanship, clear communication and dependable aftercare across the electric gates Wallington area.
In the London Borough of Sutton, access and parking can be tight on residential roads, so we plan deliveries and work areas carefully. We also account for sloping drives and mixed surfaces common around SM6, ensuring smooth gate travel and solid foundations. Near places like Beddington Park, properties often have mature hedges and established boundaries, so we route cables discreetly and protect planting. Our approach keeps the site safe, tidy and neighbour-friendly.

Most installations in Wallington fall between £4,000 and £7,000, with a wider typical range of £2,500 to £10,000 depending on size and specification. Costs vary with sliding vs swing operation, materials (wooden or metal), groundwork and piers, and the automation package. Adding intercom systems, extra remotes, safety edges or upgraded motors can increase the overall budget.
Most electric gate installations take 2–4 days from start to commissioning. Timescales depend on whether new posts or piers are needed, how much groundwork and cabling is required, and whether the driveway needs adjustments for levels or drainage. Sliding gates can take longer if a track or substantial foundation is required. We confirm a schedule after the site survey and keep disruption to a minimum.
Electric gates are often permitted development, but there are important exceptions. Height limits, visibility splays near highways, and listed buildings or conservation considerations can affect what’s allowed. If your entrance is close to the pavement or you’re changing boundary treatments significantly, it’s worth checking. We’ll flag any likely issues during the survey and can advise on what to confirm with the London Borough of Sutton before work begins.
We provide a 10-year warranty on workmanship for the installation, covering issues related to fitting, alignment and fixings when used and maintained correctly. Automation components such as motors, control boards, intercoms and safety devices are covered by manufacturer warranties, which vary by brand and specification. We’ll explain what’s included before you proceed and provide handover guidance to help keep the system running reliably.
