Gates in Poole

Bespoke metal, wooden and electric gates made in our own workshop and fitted across Poole.

Gates · Poole

Gates made close to home

We are based on Ringwood Road in Parkstone, so Poole is where many of our gates end up. We design, fabricate and fit gates for houses in Broadstone and Oakdale, larger plots around Canford Cliffs and Lilliput, and everything in between. Our range of styles means there is something for every property, from a plain garden gate to a wide pair across a gravel drive.

Our carpentry team handles timber and our fabrication team handles metal, both in house, which lets us check the quality of every gate before it leaves. Tell us how you use the entrance and we'll design a set to match. Every gate comes with a 12-month guarantee on labour and parts.

Metal gates

Our fabrication team can make intricate designs with scrolls, rings and finials, or plainer, more secure designs with close-set bars. Steel and iron gates are drawn up to your exact opening and finished in the colour of your choice, then hung on piers or posts that suit the weight of the gate. We can also match a new pedestrian gate to an existing pair, so older and newer metalwork sit well together.

Wooden gates

Timber gates are fabricated in our workshop to your requirements, in hardwood or softwood. Close-boarded gates give privacy on a busy road; spindle-topped designs such as the Lulworth keep a lighter, more open look. Every design in the Heritage range can be built to your own measurements. Softwood suits a tighter budget, while hardwood gives a richer colour and grain.

Electric gates

Any gate we make, timber or metal, can be designed with automatic operation. We install swing and sliding systems and can fit a keypad or intercom on the pier so visitors are screened before the gate opens. Let us know early whether you want automation, as it affects how the gate is built. An intercom lets you speak to delivery drivers and visitors without leaving the house.

Commercial gates

Car parks under flats, yards and business entrances need gates that cope with constant use. We build sliding and swing security gates for commercial premises, with locks and access control to keep the site to authorised people only. Sliding designs are a good choice where parked cars or a slope would block a swinging leaf, and we build them tall enough to deter trespassers.

We also carry out regular gate servicing and repairs, putting small faults right before they grow.

Areas we cover

Across Poole and its harbourside

From the harbour edge at Hamworthy to the north of the town at Broadstone, we cover every part of Poole. Being based in Parkstone means short journeys for surveys and repairs, and it is easy for you to talk through a design with us before anything is made. Our team knows the town well, from the narrow roads around Lower Parkstone to the wider plots near the golf course at Broadstone.

Neighbourhoods we serve include:

  • Parkstone
  • Broadstone
  • Canford Cliffs
  • Lilliput
  • Oakdale

Black metal driveway gates with a curved top, spear finials and a band of rings

Bell-curve driveway gates

These black driveway gates dip towards the centre in a soft bell curve. Spear finials top every bar, and a row of rings with small fleur-de-lis detail runs across the lower rail. Brick piers with ball caps hold the two leaves across a block-paved drive.

Scroll-top pedestrian gate

A narrow black side gate fills the gap between two brick walls at the front of a house. Its top rail rises into a scroll at each end with spear heads between, and matching panels sit on the low wall beside it. It is a neat way to secure a side path.

Driveway gates lit at dusk

Photographed at dusk, this pair of black gates sits between brick piers fitted with wall lights and a lamp on top. The top rail curves up to the centre with a band of rings beneath, and spear points finish each bar. The lighting shows the gates clearly after dark.

Close-boarded timber gates

Two close-boarded timber gates span a tarmac driveway, hung on square posts either side. The vertical boards run the full height with no gaps, giving complete privacy from the road. Left in a natural pale finish, the wood suits a house surrounded by trees and hedging.

Good to know

Planning a gate in Poole

Around the harbour and on the peninsula, wind and salt air are part of daily life, so a sturdy frame and a suitable finish are worth discussing at the design stage. Some parts of Poole are conservation areas, where the look of a new front boundary may be controlled; BCP Council can tell you whether that applies to your address. Wide sliding gates also need a clear run alongside the opening, which we will measure when we visit. If your driveway slopes, tell us early, as it affects how swing gates are hung.
