Why Chigwell Electric Gates
Incorrect kit choice or shallow fixings lead to repeat failures; thorough checks and correct mounting avoid unsafe operation and extra cost.
Epping's damp conditions swell timber and bind hinges, making daily operation tiring and hastening hinge wear without intervention.
Undersized motors struggle with wrought iron or solid timber gates, causing motor burn-out, frequent repairs and unexpected callouts.
Wind exposure on hilly, ridge-top driveways increases wind load on gates and demands wind-rated motors and stronger fixings.
Motor mounting and control wiring give reliable remote access with commissioned stop/reverse tests at handover for peace of mind.
Weatherproof motors with an IP54 rating resist forest rain and extend service life on exposed Epping sites and ridges.
Who We Help
Owners near Epping High Street needing compact automation that suits narrow, sloped or town-centre driveways with discrete fittings.
Owners of rural detached properties requiring wind-rated motors, deeper post foundations and remote control for long, sloped entrances.
Developers around the station and B1393 needing clear specifications, control wiring and tested handovers for multiple plots.
How We Work
A simple three-step process from survey to tested handover.
Schedule survey
Book a site visit; assessor inspects gate condition, measures weight, hinge alignment, mounting points and power access for correct kit selection.
Compatibility check & quote
We confirm motor sizing, mounting method and post requirements, then provide an itemised quote covering kit, wiring and testing.
Install, test & handover
Install motors, wire the control board, fit safety sensors, commission stop/reverse and demonstrate manual release and controls to owner.
