About this Service
Doddinghurst electric gates suit residential properties and private driveways where hands-free access simplifies daily family routines. Aluminium gate leaves reduce motor strain, making retrofits and new installations more straightforward.
Properties in village settings often involve existing posts or low stone piers. Installers will evaluate whether to reuse posts or specify new concrete foundations sized to the aluminium leaf and local soil. For family homes, reliability during school runs is important, so motor selection and safety sensor placement are planned for frequent short cycles.
Expect a detailed site survey, an itemised drawing and a motor recommendation based on leaf weight and cycle frequency. Power routing and any trenching work are agreed in advance. Installations include safety photocells and manual release for outages. Fabrication and powder coating are scheduled ahead of fitment; allow time for bespoke profile production if matching existing gates.
