The location of your gates is very important. If your gates open close to a road or narrow pavement you might want to consider opting for inwards opening gates or even sliding gates, as these will open parallel to the road.

For steep, sloping driveways a standard opening gate is not suitable. There are however work-arounds should you require driveway gates to fit a driveway with a gradient.

For increased security, always consider automated driveway gates, manual gates have the tendency to be left open all day. Automated driveway gates alternatively tend to serve the purpose they were installed for, due to the ease and convenience of opening and closing remotely.
