Twickenham’s Victorian villas, Edwardian houses and 1930s family homes often need gates that respect original proportions while improving security. We regularly work on narrow side passages, shared accessways and front gardens where space is tight. If you’re in TW1 or TW2, we can recommend timber or metal options that suit local streetscapes and cope with year-round use. We also create matching fencing runs for a consistent frontage.
We start with a site visit to check levels, post positions and swing/slide clearances, then provide a clear specification for materials, finishes and hardware. Gates are built for strength and aligned carefully to prevent sagging, with attention to drainage and ground movement. Automation is installed with safety in mind, including appropriate controls and access options. Homeowners choose us for punctual scheduling, tidy work and a 10-year warranty on installation.
Across the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames, we often encounter mixed paving levels, mature tree roots and older brick piers that need careful fixing. Parking and access can be restricted on residential roads around Richmond and Twickenham, so we plan deliveries and waste removal to minimise disruption. We also account for narrow side returns common to Victorian and Edwardian plots, selecting hinges and opening directions that work in tight spaces. Our approach keeps gates aligned and reliable through seasonal ground movement.

Costs vary by size, material and hardware. As a guide, a basic timber side gate supplied and fitted is often £350–£850. Metal pedestrian gates typically range from £600–£1,500 depending on design and galvanising/paint finish. Driveway gates can be £1,800–£5,500+, with automation usually adding £1,500–£3,500 depending on power supply, safety features and controls.
Most side or pedestrian gates are installed in half a day to a full day once the gate is ready, while driveway gates commonly take 1–2 days. If new posts, brickwork repairs or matching fencing are included, allow extra time. Lead times depend on fabrication and finishing, especially for bespoke metalwork. Automation can add a further day for wiring, commissioning and safety checks.
Many garden and driveway gates are permitted development, but rules can apply to height, visibility near highways, and listed buildings or conservation areas.

We’ll flag likely constraints during the survey and can help you understand what’s needed before work starts. When in doubt, we recommend confirming with the council.
