Aluminium Gates in Leicester
Leicestershire — local installers
Aluminium Gates in Leicester
Leicester splits between two very different jobs. On the larger plots towards Oadby, Stoneygate, Kirby Muxloe and Glenfield we install automated double driveway gates with intercom entry. Around the city's industrial estates and unit entrances we build heavy-duty sliding gates where security, duty cycle and access control matter more than styling. Both come out of the same workshop with the same finish quality.
Domestic driveway gates
For family homes we usually specify a double swing gate with an underground or ram motor, a video intercom at the pillar and a keypad for household use. Where the driveway rises steeply from the road we switch to a sliding gate so the leaves never foul the surface. Every domestic gate leaves the workshop with a full powder coated finish and stainless fixings.
Commercial and industrial gates
For yards, car parks and unit entrances we build cantilever sliding gates in aluminium or steel, sized for repeated daily use, with safety edges, photocells, warning beacons and induction loops where vehicles need automatic exit. Access can run on fobs, keypads, intercom or an existing site system, and we can quote maintenance visits after handover.
Security without a fortress look
A lot of Leicester customers want the security of a gated entrance without the property looking closed off. Vertical bar or partly open infills keep sight lines, while a solid lower section stops casual access — we mock the proportions up at quote stage so you can see the balance before manufacture.
