From smart side access to statement driveway entrances, we design and install gates that look right and work flawlessly. Homeowners near Honor Oak Park station and along the slopes by One Tree Hill often need gates that cope with gradients and tight boundaries. We supply side gates, pedestrian gates and driveway gates, all made to measure. Every installation is finished neatly, with reliable hinges, latches and locks.
Honor Oak’s Victorian terraces, Edwardian houses and 1930s semis each suit different gate styles and heights. We regularly fit timber gates that complement period brickwork, and metal gates that bring a crisp, modern line to front paths. If your entrance is narrow or shared, we can plan opening directions and clearances carefully. For the wider garden gates Honor Oak area, we also match new fencing runs to keep the whole boundary consistent.
We start with a site visit to measure, check levels and discuss privacy, security and access needs. You’ll receive clear options on materials, finishes, locking and automation, then we manufacture and install with minimal disruption. We use durable fixings and set posts properly for long-term alignment. Local homeowners choose us for tidy workmanship, straightforward communication and a 10-year warranty for peace of mind.
Access and parking in SE23 can be restrictive, so we plan deliveries and installation times carefully. Many plots sit on a gradient, so we allow for ground levels, drainage run-off and gate swing clearance before setting posts. We’re familiar with boundary layouts around Forest Hill and Brockley, where side passages can be narrow and uneven. Where needed, we’ll advise on heights and visibility considerations typical for the London Borough of Lewisham.

Costs vary by size, material and whether posts need replacing. As a guide, a made-to-measure timber side gate with quality ironmongery is often £450–£900 installed. Metal pedestrian gates commonly range from £650–£1,400. Driveway gates typically start around £1,800–£4,500, while automation can add roughly £1,200–£3,000 depending on power supply and controls.
A straightforward side or pedestrian gate installation is usually completed in half a day to a full day, especially if existing posts are sound. Replacing posts, correcting levels, or extending matching fencing can push this to 1–2 days. Driveway gates often take 1–3 days, and automated systems may add another day for wiring, safety devices and commissioning. Weather and access in SE23 can also affect timing.
Most garden and driveway gates are permitted development, but there are limits, particularly for gates next to a highway and for overall height. Extra considerations can apply if your property is listed or in a conservation area. We’ll talk through your layout, check the key rules, and flag anything that may need confirmation from the London Borough of Lewisham. If required, we can provide drawings and specifications to support an application.
We provide a 10-year warranty covering our installation workmanship, including post setting, alignment and fixings. If a gate drops due to installation issues, we’ll put it right. Manufacturer warranties apply to automation components and certain locks, and we’ll register these where relevant. Natural movement in timber can occur with seasonal changes, so we also advise on maintenance and can offer adjustment visits if needed.
We fit timber gates such as closeboard, tongue-and-groove, slatted and framed ledged-and-braced styles, with options for painted or stained finishes. For metal gates, popular choices include powder-coated steel with simple vertical bars, decorative tops, or privacy-infill panels. We can add keyed locks, digital access, or full automation for driveways. We’ll help you choose a design that suits your home’s era and the practical needs of your entrance.
