Electric Gates
Romsey.
Bespoke electric gates in Romsey designed, manufactured and installed for homes, rural entrances and private driveways across Romsey, North Baddesley, Ampfield, Timsbury, Braishfield and the surrounding Test Valley area.
Electric Gates Designed for Romsey Homes and Driveways
Perimeter Fencing and Gates installs electric gates across Romsey and nearby villages, providing complete systems for private homes, larger residential entrances, rural driveways and secure vehicle access points.
We build each gate system around the entrance. That includes the gate design, steelwork, posts, hinges or track, automation, access control, safety equipment and commissioning.
Romsey properties can vary from compact town driveways to wider countryside entrances. We assess the site properly before recommending swing gates, sliding gates, above-ground automation, underground motors or access control options.
Electric Gates for Town, Village and Rural Entrances Around Romsey
Romsey has a mix of property types, from compact residential driveways near the town centre to larger homes and rural entrances around Ampfield, Braishfield, Timsbury, Awbridge and the Test Valley villages. Each type of entrance needs a different approach.
A narrow driveway may need careful hinge positioning, compact automation and simple access control. A wider rural entrance may need stronger posts, steel-framed gates, a sliding gate option, longer cable runs, intercom planning and a more detailed safety layout.
We specify electric gates around how the entrance is actually used, including vehicle access, visitor access, pedestrian safety, driveway levels, wind exposure and the available space for the gate to open or slide.
Electric Gate Systems We Install in Romsey
The right system depends on the driveway layout, available space, gate weight, power supply, access control requirements and how the entrance will be used day to day.
Swing Gates
Electric swing gates suit many Romsey driveways where there is enough space for the leaves to open safely without interfering with parking or the road.
Sliding Gates
Sliding electric gates can work well for wider entrances, shorter driveways, sloping approaches or properties where swing gates are not practical.
Automation
We specify motors, control panels and safety equipment around the gate size, weight, usage level and site layout, rather than fitting a generic kit.
Access Control
Keypads, remotes, fobs, GSM intercoms, video entry and app-based access can be included depending on how the property is used.
How Much Do Electric Gates Cost in Romsey?
As a guide, a complete electric swing gate installation in Romsey will often sit between £6,500 and £15,000+. Electric sliding gates are usually higher because they often need more groundwork, stronger supporting steelwork, track or cantilever hardware and heavier automation equipment.
Automating existing gates can cost less if the current gates, posts and hinges are suitable. If the existing gate structure is weak, badly aligned or not safe to automate, a purpose-built electric gate system will normally be the better long-term option.

Why Romsey Customers Choose Perimeter Fencing and Gates
We are not just fitting motors to gates. We design the complete entrance system so the gate, frame, posts, automation, safety setup and access control work together properly.
That matters on Romsey properties where entrances can vary from narrow residential drives to larger rural openings. A suitable installation needs the right structure, the right automation and the right safety setup from the start.
We keep the process straightforward: survey the entrance, specify the correct system, provide a clear quotation and install the gate to a professional standard.
Electric Gate Safety Comes First
Electric gates are powered machines. A safe installation needs more than a motor and a remote control. The system must be specified around safe movement, pedestrian protection, vehicle access, force limitation and reliable stopping.
We allow for suitable safety equipment such as photocells, safety edges, correct force settings and professional commissioning where required by the gate design and site layout.
We follow HSE electric gate safety guidelines to ensure full compliance with UK regulations.
From Romsey Site Survey to Installation
We survey the entrance first so the gate system is specified correctly rather than guessed from a photo.
1. Site Survey
We inspect the opening, driveway layout, ground levels, power options, access requirements and any existing gates or posts.
2. Specification
We recommend the most suitable gate type, materials, automation, access controls and safety equipment for the entrance.
3. Quotation
You receive a clear quotation based on the agreed specification, so you know what is included before work begins.
4. Installation
We install, commission and set up the gate system so it is ready for everyday use.
