Bi-fold gates are ideal where ordinary swing gates or even sliding gates are not practical.

They are extremely useful for closing off a wide shallow entrance making them ideal for preventing children and pets from gaining access to the road.

They can also be used where a steep drive means that there would be a large gap beneath conventional gates. As each section is only half the length of a single leaf, the amount the gate has to clear is greatly reduced.

Bi-fold Gates

Manufacturers and suppliers of “off the peg kit gates” and flat packs are limited to the fittings offered by their suppliers, hence any “one off” fittings are either not possible or only at considerable extra cost. As we manufacture from “scratch” any special fittings such as offset hinges or custom latches can be designed in from the outset.

Custom fittings can also add to the security of you property, we manufacture our own proprietary lockable sliding bolt which can be provided with bolt diameters from 12 mm to 20 mm. It can easily be adapted to suit a wide range of situations and is totally reversible. The bolt can be easily retro-fitted to existing gates both single and double.

Special Features

Crime is Increasing!

It is an unfortunate sign of the times that crime, particularly burglary and property crime, is on the increase.

We often receive calls after burglaries and vandalism has already taken place, how much better it would be if these incidents hadn’t happened to begin with.

Whilst it is never possible to completely protect your property without turning it into an unsightly and possibly dangerous “fortress”, some simple steps can be taken to impose suitable deterrents in the majority of cases.

• Lockable side gates can help to prevent easy access to the side and rear of your property. We supply a simple yet effective, lockable slide bolt which can be fitted to new installations or retro-fitted to existing gates.

• Window bars can be fitted to vulnerable windows or to garages and sheds, which can contain valuable tools and bikes.

• Walltop railings can prevent your walls becoming a meeting place for rowdy youngsters.

• Fit security locks, door viewers and chains to windows and doors in your property.

Total Project Capability

Thinking  of having new boundary walls complete with gates and railings ?

Let us manage your entire project from start to finish. No need  to deal with a separate builder and fabricator.

We will handle the entire project from demolishing the old walls to digging the footings and erecting the brickwork or blockwork, then making and installing the metalwork.

We will also arrange any specialist services required to complete your project to your satisfaction.

The drawing to the left illustrates how the bolt can be easily adjusted to accommodate a wide range of throw lengths.

The locking of the bolt is simplicity itself and the padlock can be easily accessed from both sides of the gate.

There are many features which “off the peg” manufacturers can’t offer.
          These include Bi-fold gates, safety features and custom made fittings.
