From Bermondsey Street to the riverside near Tower Bridge, a well-built gate makes a big difference to privacy and security. We design and install side gates, driveway gates and pedestrian gates that suit Bermondsey’s mix of streets and mews access. Whether you want a discreet side entrance or a statement driveway gate, we tailor the look and the hardware. We regularly work across SE1 and SE16, including London Bridge and Rotherhithe.
The Bermondsey area includes converted warehouses with communal entrances, Victorian terraces with narrow side returns, and modern apartments with shared boundaries. We’re used to tricky access, uneven brickwork, and tight openings that need accurate measuring. For terraces, we often fit slimline side gates with secure locks; for larger plots near Surrey Quays, driveway gates and automation are popular. If your fencing is tired or mismatched, we can replace sections to match the new gate.
We start with a site visit to measure, discuss security needs, and confirm swing/slide clearances. You’ll receive clear options on materials, finishes, locks and automation, plus a tidy installation plan. Our team builds for longevity with quality fixings, treated timbers and corrosion-resistant metalwork. Local homeowners choose us for reliable scheduling, neat workmanship, and a 10-year warranty for peace of mind.
Bermondsey streets often mean limited parking, controlled access, and tight delivery windows, so we plan materials and installation times carefully. Many properties have brick piers, rendered walls, or shared boundaries that need the right fixings and considerate working. We also account for wind exposure along the riverside and choose hinges and closers accordingly. If any Southwark requirements apply, we’ll flag them early and help you stay compliant.
Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
Costs vary by size, material and hardware. As a guide, a made-to-measure timber side gate with quality hinges and lock typically starts around £450–£900 supplied and fitted. Metal pedestrian gates are often £700–£1,500 depending on design. Driveway gates range from £1,800–£5,000+, with automation usually adding £1,200–£3,000 depending on power supply and safety features.
Most side or pedestrian gates are installed in a single visit once the gate is made, often 2–5 hours. Driveway gates can take 1–2 days, especially if posts or brick piers need strengthening. Automation typically adds another half to one day for motors, safety edges and commissioning. Timescales depend on access, ground levels, curing time for new posts, and any electrical works required.
Many garden and driveway gates fall under permitted development, but there are limits, particularly for gates facing a highway or if your property is listed or in a conservation area. Height, position and visibility can affect what’s allowed. We’ll discuss your layout in Bermondsey and advise what’s likely to be permitted. If needed, we can help you gather details for Southwark guidance before work begins.
We provide a 10-year warranty on workmanship for our gate installations. This covers fitting, alignment, fixings and structural issues arising from installation. Materials are covered by the relevant manufacturer warranties, and we’ll explain what applies to timber treatments, metal finishes and automation components. Regular maintenance (such as lubrication and occasional adjustment) helps keep everything operating smoothly, and we can provide an aftercare plan if requested.
Popular options include treated timber ledged-and-braced side gates, contemporary slatted timber for privacy, and powder-coated metal gates for a sharper, low-maintenance look. For driveways, we can supply swing or sliding gates, with manual or automated operation. Hardware choices include deadlocks, digital locks and self-closing hinges. We’ll recommend a design that suits your boundary, security needs and any matching fencing requirements.
