Aluminium Gates in Arnold
Nottingham — NG5
Aluminium Gates in Arnold
Arnold and the NG5 estates around Redhill, Daybrook and Woodthorpe are mostly post-war semis and detached homes with straight, level driveways — the easiest frontage to gate well. Double swing aluminium gates with a matching pedestrian gate are the most common job we do here.

Double swing gates on Arnold driveways
Level NG5 driveways take a straightforward pair of swing leaves on posts set into new concrete, opening inward. We size the leaves so a car can sit on the drive with the gates closed, and add a matching 1m pedestrian gate where there is a side path.
Adding automation now or later
If the budget is tight we fit gates that are automation-ready — correct hinge positions, post sizes and a duct under the drive — so a motor can be added later without lifting the block paving twice. When we automate on day one it is usually a ram or articulated arm kit with fob and keypad entry.
Boundary work to match
Most Arnold jobs extend to the whole frontage: gate, pedestrian gate and aluminium fence panels or railings in one RAL colour, with posts set to follow any slight fall so there are no gaps under the runs.
Questions
Gates in Arnold — Common Questions
Can gates be added to an existing brick pier in Arnold?
Often yes — we core-fix hinge plates into sound piers. Where a pier is decorative rather than structural we set independent posts in concrete alongside it so the gate weight is carried properly.
How much do automatic gates cost in Arnold?
Automated aluminium driveway gates typically fall in the £3,500–£9,000 range supplied and installed, depending on width, motor type and access control. You get a fixed written quote after the free survey.
Do you service gates you didn't install?
Yes. We service and repair aluminium gates and automation across NG5, including motor swaps, safety edge and photocell checks.
