Electric Gates
Stansted Mountfitchet
Looking for electric gate installation in Stansted Mountfitchet? We work with a trusted fabricator covering the village and the surrounding area — supplying and fitting swing gates, sliding gates, driveway automation and electric bollards.
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.
Security that works while you are away
Living beside a major airport means a good proportion of households here travel more than most — for work, and often at short notice. That changes what people actually want from an electric gate. Keeping a driveway secure is only half of it; the other half is being able to see and control the entrance while you are three time zones away.
The specification that suits this is app control with video intercom rather than fobs alone. It lets you see who is at the gate from anywhere, grant access to a neighbour, cleaner or contractor without handing over a physical fob, and confirm the gate actually closed after a delivery. Individual user codes matter too, since they can be revoked without re-coding the whole system.
The village itself has a well-preserved older core around the castle and Chapel Hill, along with newer development toward the station. Our installer covers both, plus the surrounding villages at Elsenham, Birchanger, Ugley and Manuden.

Do you install electric gates throughout Stansted Mountfitchet?
Yes — our installer covers Stansted Mountfitchet and the surrounding villages including Elsenham, Birchanger, Ugley, Manuden and Farnham, along with Saffron Walden and Great Dunmow.
Can I open and monitor my gate while I am abroad?
Yes, with app control and a video intercom. You can see who is at the gate from anywhere with a connection, let someone in without giving them a fob, and check the gate closed properly afterwards. Individual user access can be granted and revoked without re-coding the system. See our access control page for the full range of options.
What happens if the internet or power fails while I am away?
The gate itself keeps working on its own controller; app control is an additional layer rather than the mechanism. In a power cut the manual release allows the gate to be opened by hand, and a fail-safe configuration can be set so it opens automatically on power loss. Worth deciding which behaviour you want at survey.
How quickly can I get a quote?
Once you submit an enquiry through our quote form, your installer will typically be in touch within 24 to 48 hours. Stansted sits toward the outer edge of his coverage, so allow a little 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.
