A look at our work
Every gate we fit is made to measure for the property it goes on. Here is a small selection of recent installations — traditional and contemporary, swing and sliding.
A historic town on the Humber
Barton is an unusually historic town for its size, with a conservation area covering much of the centre and a concentration of listed buildings around St Peter's and the older streets. Anything altering a frontage here is likely to need more thought — and often more paperwork — than the equivalent job on a modern estate.
Where consent is difficult, rising bollards are worth considering. Because they sit flush with the ground when lowered, they change the appearance of a frontage far less than a gate does, which can make them acceptable on properties where a gate would not be. It is not the answer everywhere, but on a listed or conservation-area entrance it is a genuine alternative rather than a fallback.
The town sits at the southern end of the Humber Bridge, and the properties along the riverside and out towards Barrow and Goxhill include some substantial detached homes with the sort of frontages that suit automation well. Barton is toward the northern edge of our installer's coverage, around 62 miles from his base, so worth discussing scheduling when you book.

Do you install electric gates in Barton-upon-Humber?
Yes — our installer covers Barton and the surrounding North Lincolnshire villages including Barrow upon Humber, Goxhill, South Ferriby and Horkstow, along with Brigg. He is based in Boston, so this is at the far end of his patch, but it is within range.
Do I need planning permission for electric gates in Barton?
Quite possibly. Barton has a substantial conservation area covering much of the town centre and a high number of listed buildings, and works affecting a listed property generally need consent regardless of gate height. Outside those areas the usual permitted development rules apply. Our planning permission guide covers the detail.
What if a gate will not be approved for my property?
Automatic rising bollards are worth considering. Because they lower flush with the ground, they alter the appearance of a frontage far less than a gate and are sometimes acceptable where a gate is not. They give the same control over vehicle access. Your installer can advise on whether they suit your entrance.
How quickly can I get a quote?
Once you submit an enquiry through our quote form, your local installer will typically be in touch within 24 to 48 hours. Barton is around 62 miles from his base, so allow some flexibility on survey dates.
What types of electric gate do you supply and install?
Electric swing gates, sliding gates, bi-folding gates, full driveway automation and automatic rising bollards, plus automation retrofits to existing gates where they are structurally suitable. All metalwork is fabricated to measure in-house.
