Custom Sliding Gate
Custom driveway gates, built motor-ready
A driveway gate is the most-used moving part on any property — several cycles a day, every day, in sun and rain. We build sliding gates to the exact width of your opening, in a frame heavy enough to stay square, and set up to take a motor from day one.
What you can choose
- Infill: horizontal timber slats, vertical slats, or solid steel sheet
- Width built to your opening, not a standard size
- Track-guided or cantilever, depending on your driveway
- Motor-ready bracket and rack mounting included
- Powder-coated or painted finish in your colour
- A matching pedestrian gate
Typical sizes
- Most residential driveways are 3.5m–6m wide
- Height usually 1.8m–2.1m to match your wall
These are starting points, not a catalogue. Every piece is built to your measurements.
How we build your sliding gate
01
Send us the space
WhatsApp a photo of where it’s going, plus rough measurements. A sketch on paper is perfectly fine.
02
We quote and confirm
We measure the opening, check the run-back space alongside it, and look at whether the ground is level — that decides track versus cantilever. You get a price and a timeline before anything is cut.
03
We build it
Frame welded from square tube with diagonal bracing so it can’t rack, then infilled. Wheels and guides sized for the gate’s actual weight, not a generic rating.
04
Delivery and install
We deliver across Gauteng and install on site where the piece needs it.
Sliding Gates we’ve built
A few we’ve made recently. Yours can be a different size, timber or finish — tell us what you have in mind.
Gates are our most location-specific work, since they’re installed on site. We cover Pretoria, Centurion, Midrand and the northern Johannesburg suburbs most often, and travel further into Gauteng by arrangement. Elsewhere in the province, ask and we’ll tell you honestly whether it’s worth the trip.
Questions we get asked
Can it be motorised?
We build every sliding gate motor-ready — correct bracket, rack mounting and clearances. We can arrange the motor installation with a qualified installer, since the electrical work and safety setup should be done by someone certified.
What maintenance does it need?
Keep the track clear of stones and grit, and grease the rollers a couple of times a year. That’s most of it. Repaint or touch up chips before rust takes hold.
