Electric Gates
Brentwood & Essex
Looking for electric gate installation in Brentwood? We work with a trusted local fabricator based right here in Essex — supplying and fitting swing gates, sliding gates, driveway automation systems and more across the local area.
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.
Local expertise, right on your doorstep
Brentwood is known for its leafy residential roads and a strong concentration of larger detached and executive homes, particularly around the town centre and surrounding villages. Excellent rail links into London have long made it a sought-after area for commuting families.
With many properties set back from the road on generous plots, electric gates are a particularly popular addition in Brentwood — adding genuine kerb appeal and privacy to homes that already command a premium position in the local market.
Whether you're on a residential street in Brentwood itself or in the surrounding Essex countryside, ElectriGate will connect you with the right local specialist for your project — completely free of charge and with no obligation.

Do I need planning permission for electric gates in Essex?
In most cases, no — residential electric gates fall under permitted development rights in England. The main exceptions are gates over 1 metre adjacent to a highway, listed buildings, and properties in conservation areas. Our planning permission guide covers the rules in full.
What types of electric gate do you supply and install?
Our Brentwood installer fabricates and fits electric swing gates, sliding gates, bi-folding gates and full driveway automation systems. They also carry out automation retrofits to existing gates where structurally suitable. Materials available include aluminium, steel, wrought iron and timber.
How long does installation take?
Most residential installations are completed in one to two days. More complex projects involving new pillars, ground loops and full intercom systems can take two to three days. Your installer will give a precise timeline when they visit for the survey.
