From busy streets near Paddington station to quieter pockets by Little Venice, a well-made gate makes daily access safer and smarter. We supply and install side gates, driveway gates and pedestrian gates tailored to your boundary lines and entry points. Every gate is measured, built and fitted for smooth operation and reliable security. We also match new gates to existing fencing for a consistent frontage.
The garden gates Paddington area homes need often differ by building type and access. Stucco townhouses and mansion flats around Bayswater and Marylebone can require narrow side passages, shared boundaries and discreet designs. Modern apartments near Paddington Basin often benefit from clean-lined metalwork and controlled access. We design around tight clearances, steps, utility meters and existing brick piers to keep everything practical and tidy.
Our process starts with a site visit, precise measuring and clear options for materials, finishes and locking. We then fabricate to specification, install with care, and test alignment, swing and latch action before sign-off. If you want automation, we plan power, safety edges and access controls from the outset. Homeowners choose us for punctual scheduling, clean workmanship and a 10-year warranty on our installations.
Working in W2 means planning for restricted parking, delivery slots and busy pavements, especially around St Mary’s Hospital and main routes. We schedule installs to minimise disruption and keep access safe for neighbours and passers-by. Many properties have older brickwork, shared walls and uneven thresholds, so we allow for careful fixing and precise hinge geometry. We can also advise on discreet designs that suit conservation-sensitive streetscapes where applicable.

Costs vary by size, material, ironmongery and site access. As a guide, a simple timber side gate typically starts from £450–£900 supplied and fitted, while metal pedestrian gates are often £700–£1,500. Double driveway gates commonly range from £1,800–£4,500, with automation adding around £1,200–£3,000 depending on motors, power and controls. We provide a detailed written quote after surveying.
Most straightforward side or pedestrian gate installations take half a day to a full day on site once the gate is ready. Lead times for fabrication are usually 2–4 weeks, depending on design complexity and finishes. Driveway gates and automation can take 1–2 days for installation and commissioning. Timescales are affected by bespoke metalwork, paint curing, access restrictions in W2, and any repairs needed to posts or piers.
Many garden and driveway gates fall under permitted development, but there are important limits, particularly on height next to a highway and where listed buildings or conservation areas apply. In the City of Westminster, rules can be stricter on front boundaries and street-facing changes. We’ll ask the right questions during the survey, check constraints where relevant, and recommend a compliant design. If permission is needed, we can support with drawings and specifications.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our installation workmanship, covering issues such as hinge fixing, alignment and structural fitting failures under normal use. Manufacturer warranties apply to specific components like locks, closers, automation motors and control boards, and we’ll explain these clearly in your quote. We also advise on maintenance—such as re-oiling hinges and treating timber—to help your gate last longer and operate smoothly year-round.
We offer timber gates (including closeboard, tongue-and-groove and framed ledged-and-braced styles) and metal gates in contemporary or traditional patterns. Popular options in Paddington include painted hardwood for period frontages, powder-coated steel for durability, and slatted designs for privacy with airflow. You can add matching fencing, secure locks, keypad entry or remote automation. We’ll help you choose based on security needs, exposure, and the look of your property.
