Why Chigwell Electric Gates
Swing gates hitting walls or cars and limited driveway space cause daily frustration. When your property lacks swing clearance, the wrong sliding system leads to track clogging, motor burnout, and stuck gates blocking emergency access.
Narrow driveways leave no clearance for swinging gates to open fully without damage
Estate-width gates weighing 300 kg require two people to slide open in wet weather
Ground tracks fill with stones and leaves, jamming rollers and stalling motors
Heavy-duty operators handle estate entrance widths without motor strain or burnout
Trackless roller design prevents gravel clogging and operates smoothly on uneven surfaces
Who We Help
From luxury detached homes to estate properties, we arrange local professionals for sliding gate systems tailored to your driveway width and surface.
Homeowners with 5-8 metre entrances needing smooth automated access for multiple vehicles
