Automated Gate Installation for Homes Across Shoreham-by-Sea

Shoreham-by-Sea has a varied mix of residential properties. Detached homes with generous driveways sit along the Adur valley, the town centre has older and more characterful properties, and newer developments stretch out towards Lancing and Southwick.

Homeowners across this stretch of the West Sussex coast are choosing electric driveway gates for better security and a defined entrance, especially where the property sits on a busier road or opens directly onto the street.

We work with homeowners throughout this area, including properties in Steyning and Upper Beeding where rural driveways and countryside settings suit a more traditional gate style. Every system is designed around the specific property: its entrance width, driveway layout and the character of the home.

What Our Customers Say

Electric Gate Installation & Related Services

We cover everything from the initial site visit through to gates, automation, access control and any entrance works. All work is carried out by our own team. Services include:

  • Bespoke electric driveway gate installation: swing and sliding systems in hardwood, aluminium, metal and steel-framed designs, built to the dimensions of your entrance rather than cut down from a standard size.
  • Electric gate servicing and maintenance: scheduled servicing and one-off visits for Bank House installations and gates originally fitted by other companies.
  • Automated gate systems: automation equipment from Roger Technology, CAME UK, NICE UK and DITEC Italy, chosen to suit the weight, size and daily usage of your gate.
  • Access control systems: video intercoms, coded keypads, proximity fobs and app-based entry, set up around how you use the gate day to day.
  • Driveway entrance works: brick pillars, fencing and groundwork carried out as part of the same project, so the finished entrance looks complete rather than patched together.
  • Security barriers and bollards: where a gate alone is not sufficient, we can install additional physical access controls at the entrance.

Electric Gates for Shoreham-by-Sea Properties

Homeowners in Shoreham-by-Sea want electric gates that do a proper job on security without making the front of the property look industrial. For homes on busier roads or with street-facing entrances, the gate design matters as much as the mechanics.

We work through both at the same time: the right gate for a contemporary seafront home is a different conversation from a hardwood design for an older property in the Adur valley, and we treat them as separate briefs.

Frequently Asked Questions

Homeowners in Shoreham-by-Sea want gates that look like they belong there, not a generic product bolted onto the entrance. Contemporary homes near the seafront or on newer developments tend to suit aluminium or metal gates.

Older and more characterful properties in the Adur valley towards Steyning and Upper Beeding often work better with hardwood swing gates that fit the feel of the entrance. We look at the property during the survey and go through the options before making any recommendation.

Yes. Automated gates remove the option for opportunistic vehicle access and a controlled entrance is a visible deterrent in itself. For properties directly off busier roads, which is common in parts of Shoreham-by-Sea, electric driveway gates stop vehicles pulling onto the driveway uninvited and give you full control over who can enter. Add a video intercom or keypad and you have a complete access control solution for the entrance.

The timescale depends on the scope of the job. A straightforward gate installation takes less time than a project that also involves new pillars, groundwork or fencing. We agree the full schedule with you before work starts so there are no surprises. The team works tidily, the site is cleared at the end of each day, and we sort out temporary access arrangements with you in advance.

The price depends on gate size, material, automation type, access control requirements and whether entrance works such as pillars or groundwork are included. A compact pair of aluminium swing gates with basic automation is a very different job to a wide bespoke hardwood sliding gate with video intercom, underground motors and new brick piers.

We provide a full quotation after the site survey, so you know exactly what is included and what it costs.

We recommend annual servicing. It keeps the mechanical and electrical components in good condition and picks up wear before it becomes a fault, far less disruptive than an emergency.

We service both our own installations and gates fitted by other companies across Shoreham-by-Sea and the surrounding area. Get in touch to arrange a service.
