From SW1 mews entrances to townhouse side passages, a well-made gate makes daily access safer and smarter. We design and install side gates, driveway gates and pedestrian gates that complement Westminster’s historic streetscape. Whether you’re near Westminster Abbey or walking distance from Victoria, we’ll match proportions, sightlines and finishes. Expect tidy workmanship, clean edges and reliable hardware that stands up to heavy use.
The garden gates Westminster area often needs are tailored to Georgian townhouses, mansion flats and luxury apartments with shared access routes. Narrow side returns, basement lightwells and communal pathways call for precise measuring and considerate installation. We regularly work with brick piers, railings and existing boundary walls, ensuring the gate sits true and closes cleanly. If you need discreet security for a courtyard in Pimlico or a smart entrance off a mews, we’ll specify the right build and fixings.
Our process starts with an on-site survey, clear options for materials and locking, and a fixed scope of work. We manufacture to fit, then install with accurate alignment, smooth operation and weather protection where needed. Automation can be added for driveway gates, with safe controls and reliable motors. Homeowners choose our garden gates in City of Westminster because we communicate clearly, protect surrounding finishes, and stand behind our work with a long warranty.
Westminster streets can mean restricted access, controlled parking and tight delivery windows, so we plan surveys and installs carefully. Many properties have listed-style facades, shared entrances or existing railings that require sympathetic detailing. We can advise on hinge types for heavy gates and corrosion-resistant fixings for exposed frontages near Whitehall and St James’s Park. Where council considerations apply, we help you stay compliant while achieving a premium finish.

Costs vary by size, material and hardware. As a guide, a made-to-measure pedestrian or side gate in timber is often £450–£1,200 supplied and fitted. Metal gates typically start around £750 and can reach £2,000+ for heavier designs. Driveway gates commonly range from £2,000–£6,000, while automation can add £1,200–£3,500 depending on motors, power and controls.
A straightforward side or pedestrian gate installation is usually completed in half a day to one day once the gate is ready. Driveway gates often take one to two days, and automated systems can add another day for wiring, safety testing and commissioning. Timescales depend on access in SW1, the condition of posts or brick piers, and whether we’re matching new fencing or repairing surrounding structures.
Many garden and driveway gates fall under permitted development, but there are important exceptions in the City of Westminster. Height limits, highway-facing boundaries, conservation areas and listed buildings can change what’s allowed. If your gate fronts a pavement or forms part of a heritage frontage, extra checks may be needed. We review your site, advise on likely requirements, and can help you gather the details needed before work starts.
We provide a 10-year warranty on workmanship for our gate installations, covering issues such as fixing integrity, alignment and operational performance when used normally. Manufacturer warranties apply to components like locks, closers and automation motors, and we’ll explain these clearly at handover. To keep everything working smoothly, we also advise on simple maintenance such as lubrication and periodic checks, especially for exposed metalwork.
We supply timber gates (including slatted, tongue-and-groove and framed ledged-and-braced styles) and metal gates in classic railings or more contemporary designs. Popular upgrades include privacy infill panels, arched tops, decorative finials, and heavy-duty locks for side access. For driveway gates, we can add automation with keypads, fobs or intercom entry. We’ll recommend options that suit your frontage, security needs and existing fencing.
