Simple To Use
Not every automated gate needs an intercom or an app. This customer wanted something straightforward, so we set the gates up to run from a push button. One press opens them to come in, another sends them closed behind you, and that’s the whole story.
It’s a nice option if the people using the gates are mostly the household, rather than a stream of visitors needing to be buzzed in. There’s less to learn and less to go wrong, and it still gives you the security of gates that stay shut until you open them. Should the customer ever want to add an intercom later, the groundwork is there.
The Benefits of Aluminium
We built these in aluminium for the same reason we recommend it to a lot of customers. It doesn’t rust, it handles the Sussex weather without complaint, and a powder-coated RAL finish holds its colour well over the years rather than fading or flaking. For a gate that’s on show at the front of the house every single day, that staying power matters.
Paired with the clean bell-top shape and the vision bars letting a little light through, the customer ended up with gates that bring security, style and convenience to the entrance without shouting about it.
The Result
The finished gates do their job and suit the house, which was the whole point. The driveway is secure, the colour ties the frontage together, and running the gates is as easy as pressing a button. If they ever need a service or a small repair over the years, we’re just up the road, and we look after the gates we install.

Can I really have any colour I want?
More or less, yes. Through the RAL system you can pick from a very wide range of set colours and have the gates powder-coated to match. It’s how we get gates to sit with a specific brick, render or door colour.
Are push-button gates secure enough?
They are. The button controls the gates, and the gates stay closed and hold firm until you press it. For a household that mainly wants easy access for itself, push-button operation is a tidy, secure setup.
Do you only fit bespoke aluminium gates in Uckfield?
