From Maze Hill to Charlton, a well-made gate finishes a garden properly and keeps access controlled. We supply and install side gates, driveway gates and pedestrian gates, tailored to your layout and daily use. Whether you’re near Greenwich Park or closer to Deptford, we’ll match the gate style to your frontage and fencing. Every installation is measured precisely for a clean swing and reliable closing.
The Greenwich area includes Georgian townhouses, Victorian villas and modern waterfront apartments, each needing a slightly different approach. Period properties often suit traditional timber gates with vertical boards and decorative tops, while contemporary builds tend to suit slimline metal frames and minimalist infill. We also design gates to align with existing brick piers, railings and boundary lines common around SE10. If you want matching fencing, we can replace or extend panels for a consistent finish.
We start with a site visit, discuss access and security needs, then provide a clear written quote. Gates are built for durability with proper posts, hinges and ground fixings, then finished with weather protection and dependable hardware. For added convenience, we can fit automation and safe locking systems, with tidy cabling routes planned from day one. Local homeowners choose us for neat workmanship, punctual scheduling and a 10-year warranty.
Access and parking can be restricted around Blackheath and central Greenwich, so we plan deliveries and waste removal carefully. Many properties have older brickwork and narrow side returns, which affects post fixing and hinge choices. We also consider exposure on open frontages and near parkland, specifying finishes and hardware that cope with wind and rain. If any council considerations apply, we’ll flag them early and keep the job compliant.
Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
Costs vary by size, material and hardware. As a guide, a simple timber side gate typically starts around £350–£750 supplied and fitted, while larger driveway gates often range from £1,500–£4,000+ depending on design and supports. Metal gates are usually £700–£2,500+ for pedestrian/side sizes. Automation can add roughly £1,200–£3,000 depending on power supply and safety features.
Most side or pedestrian gates can be installed in half a day to a full day once the gate is ready, including setting posts and fitting locks. Driveway gates typically take 1–2 days, especially if new posts or groundworks are needed. Automation usually adds another day for motors, cabling and safety testing. Lead times depend on bespoke fabrication, finishes, and any access constraints in SE10.
In many cases, garden and driveway gates are permitted development, particularly when replacing like-for-like and staying within typical height limits. However, rules can change for properties near listed buildings, conservation areas, or where boundaries meet highways and footpaths. We’ll ask the right questions during the survey and advise if checks with the Royal Borough of Greenwich are sensible. If permission is needed, we can provide supporting details for your application.
We provide a 10-year warranty on workmanship for our gate installations, covering issues such as post movement, hinge alignment and fitting-related faults under normal use. Manufacturer warranties apply to specific components like locks, latches and automation equipment, and we’ll explain these at quotation stage. To keep everything performing well, we also recommend simple maintenance such as periodic lubrication and timber re-treatment where applicable.
We offer timber gates (closeboard, tongue-and-groove, slatted and framed) and metal gates (steel or aluminium styles, from traditional to modern). Popular choices include matching side gates and fencing for privacy, or decorative pedestrian gates for front paths. For driveways, we can supply single or double-leaf gates with automation and secure locking. We’ll help you choose based on security needs, exposure, and the look of your property.
