How Much Do Electric Gates Cost in the UK

How Much Do Electric Gates Cost in the UK?

One of the most common questions we get asked is: how much do electric gates cost in the UK? The answer depends on a few key factors — gate size, material, design, and the type of automation system used.

Typical Price Range

As a general guide, a fully installed electric gate system usually ranges from £3,500 to £9,500. Bespoke, large-scale, or high-end projects can exceed this range.

Material Costs

Timber gates: £3,800–£5,500
Steel gates: £4,500–£6,500
Composite gates: from £4,200

Automation Options

Underground motors are discreet and smooth, but involve more groundworks and cost more. Above-ground arms and sliding gear are simpler and more affordable where space allows.

Extras That Affect the Price

GSM intercoms or video entry systems
Remote fobs or keypad access
Power trenching & groundwork
Bespoke gate design
