The Cheltenham Low Sliding Gate

£1,159.00

  • How to Measure: Simply take the width between the opening posts/ pillars. It's important to remember for a sliding gate to work, one side must have a clearance of "opening width + required overhang". For example. If your opening is 3m you would need a clearance of "opening" (3m) + "overhang" (800mm) = 3m 800mm.

Description

Expertly crafted by hand in the UK using our “Premium Frame” system. Deeper frames combined with thicker bars to create a stunning and durable metal sliding gate. Manufactured to any width or height to suit your requirements. Complete with a 10 year warranty on all welds.

Finish

As standard, black, anthracite grey or white included within the gate price. This finish should be looked at more like a primer that requires much more care and maintenance compared to our “Long Life” finish (additional charge). Long life finish has a zinc primer then powder coated. This system provides more protection against rust than our free finish option.

Overhead option available for flat top design. We recommend talking to one of our team (0800 6124 965) to discuss what kit best suits you. For more information on kit set-ups, see here.

Automation

For performance and safety, we recommend BFT Are’s 1000 kit (24v). Complete with a 3 year manufacturers guarantee.

How the Gate Arrives

In 3 sections. Simply bolt sections together using the pre drilled holes. The gates will be delivered by a two man team to an area of your choice.

SLIDING GATES

How to Measure

Measuring for your new sliding gate is actually a very simple process.

   Simply take a measurement of your opening.

How-to-measure-sliding gate

For a sliding gate to work, an overhang of 800mm is required. This is to hold the gate upright whilst opening/ closing.

So, your sliding gate width will be “opening width” + 800mm.

For example, if opening width = 3m 420mm (+ 800mm overhang) then the width is 4m 220mm.

If ordering online and exact measurement not offered. Reduce to closest size. Want it exact? No problem, call our team to order – 0800 6124 965.

Benefits of Metal Sliding Gates

Expertly crafted by hand in the UK using our “Premium Frame” system. Deeper frames combined with thicker bars to create a stunning and durable metal sliding gate. Manufactured to any width or height to suit your requirements. Complete with a 10 year warranty on all welds.

Metal sliding gates offer several advantages, making them a popular choice for both residential and commercial properties. Here are the key benefits:

Space-Saving Design

Sliding gates move sideways along a track instead of swinging open, making them ideal for areas with limited space. This is especially useful in driveways or locations where the gate would otherwise hit obstacles or slope.

Maximizes Usable Area: Since the gate slides parallel to the fence, you don’t lose valuable driveway space.

Durability and Strength

-Sturdy Construction. Metal gates are highly durable and resistant to wear and tear, offering long-lasting security.

Enhanced Security

Metal sliding gates provide a robust physical barrier against unauthorised access, making them more difficult to breach compared to traditional gates.

Automated Security Options: Metal sliding gates can be integrated with automated systems, such as keypads, remote controls, or intercoms, adding another layer of security.

Low Maintenance

Minimal Wear: Sliding gates tend to have less wear on hinges and other parts compared to swing gates, which experience more stress when opening and closing.
Easy Cleaning: Metal surfaces are typically easy to clean and maintain, requiring only periodic checks for any rust or minor repairs, especially if they are treated or powder-coated.

Smooth Operation

Easy to Operate: When properly installed and maintained, metal sliding gates provide smooth and quiet operation. Automation further enhances convenience, as the gate can open with a simple button press.
– **Ideal for Heavy Use:** These gates can handle frequent opening and closing without the risk of sagging, which is common in swing gates over time.

Increased Property Value

Investment in Security and Aesthetics: Installing a metal sliding gate can add value to your property, as it improves both security and curb appeal, making the property more attractive to potential buyers.
