01Materials, colours & finishingMatch the character of your property.
Choose a steel, timber or combined design, or ask about the woodgrain finishes in our catalogue. We can work from an Aegis design, your own design or discuss a gate to complement an existing entrance.
The finish of your electric gate can make a significant difference to their appearance and durability. Our gates are finished to a high-standard using heat-cured polyester powder coating, available in a wide range of colours.
Where required, this can be preceded by hot-dip galvanising and a mordant solution/T-wash pre-etching process to help extend the lifetime of the gates.
02Sizing & spaceUseful starting points for your survey.
Our electric gates are available in a range of standard sizes, with widths of 3,000mm, 3,500mm and 4,000mm, and heights of 1,600mm, 1,800mm and 2,000mm. Depending on the gate design, widths of up to 5,000mm and heights of up to 2,500mm may also be available.
The diagrams in our gallery provide a useful guide to gate dimensions and spacing requirements. However, every entrance is different, so our team will assess your property and take accurate measurements to ensure your electric gates are suitable for the available space and can be installed safely.
To get started, simply send us a photograph of your entrance and approximate measurements. We'll discuss your requirements and arrange a site survey to confirm the final specifications.
03Controls & everyday accessChoose how residents, staff and visitors come in.
Remote operation, intercoms, CCTV and number plate recognition can be considered as part of the installation. We help you plan access around the people and vehicles that use the entrance.
For commercial parking, ask about barrier integration, ANPR and parking bollards. Functions, compatibility and any additional systems are confirmed during design.
04Safety from the startEvery entrance needs its own assessment.
Automated gates are moving machinery. Gate design, operating forces, pedestrian access and protective devices need to be considered together by the installer.
Photocells may form part of the protective system. Depending on the design, an interrupted beam can prevent closing or trigger a stop and reverse. Photocells alone do not make every installation safe; the complete installation and its ongoing maintenance matter.
Tell us how children, visitors, pets and vehicles use the entrance so these needs can be considered at the survey.
05Installation, repairs & aftercareSupport for a new entrance or an existing system.
Aegis installs, repairs and maintains gates and barriers. We can also assess automation for existing doors and gates, subject to their suitability.
Ongoing maintenance helps identify wear and operating issues. If a system needs attention, tell us the gate type, the fault and any equipment details you have. We will explain the available service and maintenance options.
Customers are also encouraged to visit and view their products being manufactured before committing to an order, allowing them to see the time, effort and quality that goes into our gates.
A little clarity
Your questions,
answered.
Have something specific in mind?
Talk it through on 01206 323900.
Can you automate the gates I already have?
Often this is worth exploring. We first assess the gates, supporting structure, condition and how the entrance is used. The survey establishes whether automation is suitable and whether repairs or alterations are needed.
Which is better: swing or sliding gates?
The best fit depends on your driveway, available opening space, ground levels and access needs. Compare the options above, then book a site survey so the recommendation is based on your property.
Do you work on both homes and commercial sites?
Yes. The service covers residential driveways, car parks, business entrances and industrial sites. Gates, barriers and access arrangements are designed around the use of each property.
How much will my electric gates cost?
Size, design, finish, automation, groundworks and entry controls all affect the quotation. Tell us what you have in mind and arrange a free, no-obligation survey for a tailored price.
Can I choose the style and colour?
Yes. Use the design gallery to shortlist a style, then discuss materials, colours and dimensions with the team. The available finish and specification depend on the chosen product.
