Simply take a measurement of your opening.

Sliding-gate-showing-overhang

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.

Width: Total width of sliding gate including required overhang. Sliding gates arrive in 2 or 3 sections (dependant on size). These are simply bolted together on site.

Height: Taken from lowest to highest point of the gate including the horns. 

  • *WIDTH

    How to Measure: Simply take the width between the opening posts/ pillars plus 800mm (for required overhang).

    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.

    Taken to the highest point of the gate.

METAL FRAMED SLIDING GATES

The Beauty of Iroko with Metal

Combining a deep metal frame with stunning Iroko timber to produce a long lasting and aesthetically pleasing sliding gate.

Elevate your property’s entrance with our premium sliding gates, featuring a robust deep metal frame paired with the finest iroko hardwood timber infill. Each gate is meticulously handcrafted in the UK, combining timeless elegance with durability.

These bespoke sliding gates are available in made-to-measure sizes, ensuring a perfect fit for your space. The natural beauty of iroko timber adds warmth and sophistication, while the sturdy metal frame guarantees long-lasting performance.

Whether for residential or commercial use, our gates offer seamless functionality, unmatched craftsmanship, and a design that enhances any setting.

Iroko hardwood timber comes from the Milicia excelsa tree and is commonly known for it’s warm and attractive appearance. Featuring a golden to dark brown color with interlocked grain patterns. As it ages, it tends to darken, developing a rich patina that adds to its aesthetic appeal.

With natural weather-resistant properties, which make it ideal for outdoor use. It can withstand exposure to different weather conditions, including rain, sun, and humidity, without significant deterioration. This makes it a preferred material for outdoor gates.

INFORMATION

How to Measure

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

Simply take a measurement of your opening.

Make a note of the SMALLEST width.

** If you are replacing the posts, take a measurement of the whole opening width and reduce size by the width of the posts. For example: Opening width of 3m 460mm minus 2x posts (at 100mm wide each) = 3m 260mm.

Please note: If purchasing metal posts with your gate, hinge pins will be welded to the post. If not, we supply hinge pin plates for you to fix to existing posts/ pillars.

Step Two

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.

Included

  • Powder coated frame. Available in black, anthracite grey or white (any RAL colour available at additional cost). We recommend selecting “Longlife” finish for enhanced protection.

Available Sizes:

  • Width: from 6ft to a massive 20ft
  • Height: from 4ft to 7ft – taken to the highest point of the gate.
  • Made to Measure – all gates online can be purchased to the nearest inch, if you do require a more precise size, please contact us. (Unlike others – there is NO additional cost for bespoke, we simply base price on the next size!).

Please note: Sliding gates will arrive in 3 sections that simply bolt together on site. Pre drilled holes.

If selecting wheels, 4 wheels are fitted. The sliding gate will also function normally with just 2 fitted. If the gate is snagging on the track, remove a wheel from each section.
