As sliding gates are embedded into a track this means they can offer more security than traditionally opening driveway gates.
Sliding gates can be created with two leaves joined together, creating the illusion of a pair of swing gates, which will however slide only in one direction.
We also offer bi-Parting sliding gates, where the two halves of the gate part and slide in opposite directions.
These are ideal for properties that have an entrance with limited space.
Both bi-parting and sliding gates can be produced in metal, wood or aluminium, giving a fantastic choice of sliding driveway gates to suit any style and taste.

Sliding gates use a rail system whereby the gate gets driven forward and back along the track.
However, cantilever gates operate slightly differently using a fixed position at one end with rollers to drive the base bar of the gate forward and backwards, using a counterbalance at the fixed position to prevent the gate toppling forward.
