What affects your installation price

The cost of your installation depends on the type of gate system, the size of your entrance opening, the site conditions and cable run lengths, and whether you need extras like gate automation, bespoke fabrication or heavy-duty structural groundwork. We provide a free, transparent, all-in quote with no hidden fees. Confirming your opening width and height, arranging site access in advance, and clarifying access control needs before the visit are all effective ways to keep costs efficient. We will always give you the fairest possible price for your project.
