Why Chigwell Electric Gates
When swing gates hit walls or cars in narrow driveways, sliding automation solves the space problem. But the wrong track system or underpowered motor leaves you with stuck gates and wasted money.
Narrow driveways in Gidea Park's interwar semis leave no room for gates to swing open without clipping brickwork or vehicles
Wrought iron or steel gates weighing 300 kg+ require two people to slide open, frustrating daily use
Track systems clog with stones and debris, causing gates to jam mid-travel or derail completely
Rack-and-pinion drives handle wide spans up to 8 metres without motor burnout or slow operation
Trackless roller design eliminates ground contact, preventing debris jams on loose stone surfaces
