The gate is the first thing a visitor touches and the last line your property draws. Gate fabrication done well balances three jobs at once: security that doesn't look like a cage, a design that suits the house behind it, and hardware that still swings or slides smoothly a decade in.
TrueInstaller connects you with verified gate fabricators who build main gates, sliding gates and automated systems in MS, SS and aluminium composite designs.
Gate types we fabricate
- Swing gates — single or double leaf, classic for villas and bungalows.
- Sliding gates — track or cantilever designs where driveway space is short.
- Folding / collapsible gates — shopfronts and compound security.
- Automated gates — motorised swing/slide with remote, keypad or app control.
- Designer gates — laser-cut panels, wood-and-steel combos, ACP inlays.

Frequently asked questions
Which lasts longer — paint or powder coating?
Powder coating outlasts enamel paint 2–3× outdoors, but repairs need repainting anyway. Coastal homes should consider SS or hot-dip galvanising under the finish.
Can my existing gate be automated?
Usually yes — if the gate is square, balanced and the pillars are sound, swing or sliding operators retrofit cleanly.
Sliding or swing for a short driveway?
Sliding — it needs zero swing clearance. A cantilever slider even avoids a floor track across the driveway.
