Bexley homeowners understand the balance between privacy and presentation. Those characteristic DA5 properties with their generous front gardens deserve gates that complement the architecture. From the conservation areas near Danson Park to newer estates towards Crayford, each property demands its own approach to entrance design.
Gate selection involves more than picking a style from a catalogue. Ground levels vary significantly across Bexley's clay soil areas, particularly near the River Cray. Proper installation means accounting for seasonal ground movement, ensuring smooth operation year-round. Materials matter too - hardwood weathers beautifully in our climate, while powder-coated aluminium suits contemporary builds perfectly.
Twenty years fitting gates across Southeast London brings perspective. Local knowledge counts when navigating Bexley's planning considerations and understanding which designs suit the neighbourhood aesthetic.
