Electric Gates
Boston
Looking for electric gate installation in Boston? Our fabricator is based right here in the town — supplying and fitting swing gates, sliding gates, driveway automation and electric bollards across Boston and the surrounding fenland villages.
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.
Your installer is based in the town
Boston is home for our installer, which makes a practical difference. Site surveys get booked sooner, follow-up visits are straightforward, and there is no travel premium built into the price. For servicing and repairs in particular, having someone local rather than two hours away is worth a great deal.
The properties here are varied — the older streets around the town centre, the newer developments on the edges, and a large number of farms and rural properties out across the fens. Agricultural entrances often need something wider and more robust than a standard residential gate, and five-bar style gates built in steel rather than timber tend to be the answer where automation is involved.
One thing worth raising early on any fenland property: wind. The landscape is flat and exposed, and a solid or close-boarded gate acts like a sail. On an exposed entrance that means heavier posts, stronger motors and sometimes a change of infill to let air through. Your installer will assess this at survey rather than discovering it after the gate is hung.

Being based in Boston keeps survey and follow-up visits simple. What moves the price is usually the entrance itself: farm openings are wider, and exposed fenland gates need heavier posts and frames. The ranges below are typical.

Do you install electric gates in Boston?
Yes — our installer is based in Boston itself and covers the town along with the surrounding villages including Kirton, Swineshead, Wyberton, Frampton, Fishtoft, Old Leake and Sibsey. He also travels out to Spalding, Sleaford and Skegness.
How quickly can I get a quote?
Because your installer is based in the town, surveys in Boston and the immediate area can usually be arranged quickly. Submit an enquiry through the quote form and you should hear back within 24 to 48 hours, often sooner.
Do gates need to be built differently for exposed fenland sites?
Often, yes. Flat open country means gates take considerably more wind load than they would on a sheltered suburban street, and a solid infill acts like a sail. That can mean deeper post foundations, heavier sections and a more powerful motor — or choosing a slatted or barred infill that lets air pass through. It is assessed at survey and it is one of the reasons a local installer is worth having.
Do you fit gates on farms and agricultural entrances?
Yes. Wider agricultural entrances are common around Boston and are usually best served by a five-bar style gate built in steel rather than timber, since steel carries automation without dropping over time. Sliding gates are also worth considering where the entrance opens directly onto a road.
What types of electric gate do you supply and install?
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. Materials include steel, aluminium, wrought iron, timber and composite. Andrew fabricates the metalwork himself.
