Electric Gates
Spalding
Looking for electric gate installation in Spalding? Our fabricator is based just up the road in Boston — supplying and fitting swing gates, sliding gates, driveway automation and electric bollards across Spalding and the surrounding 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.
A short journey from your installer
Spalding is one of the closest towns to our installer's base, roughly sixteen miles up the road from Boston. That makes a practical difference on the things people tend not to think about until later — a return visit to adjust a photocell, an annual service, or a callout when something stops working. Distance matters far more after installation than during it.
The town itself has a good stock of larger Georgian and Victorian properties along the river and around the older streets, alongside newer development on the outskirts. Beyond that, South Holland is farming country, and the surrounding villages carry a lot of substantial detached houses and working farms with wide entrances that need something more robust than a standard residential gate.
As with anywhere in the fens, wind is worth raising early. The landscape is flat and exposed, and a solid gate on an open entrance catches a great deal of wind. That can mean deeper post foundations, heavier sections or a change of infill — all assessed at survey rather than discovered afterwards.

The most popular residential choice. Two leaves hinged to pillars, opening inward or outward. Available in a wide range of materials and styles.

Do you install electric gates throughout Spalding?
Yes — our installer covers Spalding and the surrounding South Holland villages including Pinchbeck, Weston, Moulton, Whaplode and Cowbit, along with Holbeach, Long Sutton and Market Deeping.
How quickly can I get a quote?
Spalding is about sixteen miles from our installer's base in Boston, so surveys here can usually be arranged quickly. Submit an enquiry 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 a gate takes considerably more wind load than it would on a sheltered 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 through. It is assessed at survey.
Do you fit gates on farms and agricultural entrances?
Yes. Wide agricultural entrances are common across South Holland 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 an entrance opens straight onto a road.
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. Materials include steel, aluminium, wrought iron, timber and composite.
