The company list

Find a company for your installation

5 companies with installation services described on their websites. One listing per business, in alphabetical order. The listed base is not a promise of coverage.

We checked company websites for the services shown below. This is not a check of competence or availability. Ask the company to confirm suitability, coverage and the work it will carry out.

The quote button starts a shared enquiry. It does not send your details directly to a company shown on this page.

Define the work

A new gate or automation for an existing gate?

These are different jobs. Start with the choice that describes your project.

New gate and automation.

Supply and installation of a new gate

You need a new powered gate fitted at your property. Tell the company about the entrance, how it is used and the gate you have in mind.

Automation for an existing gate.

Automating an existing gate

You want to add automation to a gate already in place. Ask the company to assess whether the existing gate and site are suitable before agreeing the work.

Ask about existing gate automation

Buying equipment without installation

You only need gates, motors, controls or other parts. GateHQ's installation enquiry does not handle equipment-only purchases and will not send a supply-only request to installers.

A useful first enquiry

What to prepare before requesting a quote

Have the site's postcode ready, rather than your home or office postcode if it differs. Describe who uses the entrance and what you want the gate to do.

The project
Is this a new entrance, a replacement gate or automation of an existing gate? Include the number of gates you need.
The setting
Say whether it is a home, shared entrance, business or another type of property. Mention pedestrians and vehicles using the entrance.
Access and timing
Describe how people should open the gate, any access restrictions and when you hope to arrange the work.

Before agreeing the work

What should an installation quote cover?

Ask each company to set out the same scope so you can compare its proposal.

Site survey and suitability

Ask the installer what the site survey covers and who will carry it out. Which checks will they make before recommending the gate, its safeguards and how people use it?

For background, read our guide to electric gate regulations.

Gate, automation and associated work

Does the quote include the gate, motors, access controls, electrical work and any groundworks? Ask what is excluded, who does each part and how changes are priced.

Handover and future maintenance

What operating instructions, records, warranty and maintenance arrangements will you receive? Ask who to contact if the gate develops a fault.

The next step

How the shared enquiry works

Choose the project type and give us the site's postcode. We save your request and offer it to eligible companies whose listed coverage radius reaches your postcode. A response is not guaranteed.

If we find no contactable match, your request is saved but is not sent to companies. The receipt tells you what happened. You agree any survey, price and work directly with the company.
