Sliding Driveway Gates

If you have a smaller driveway, you may think that installing a secure electric gate isn’t an option. However, a sliding driveway gate could be the perfect solution. 

Unlike traditional swing gates, sliding driveway gates require significantly less space, making them ideal for properties with limited room.

These gates move along a fixed track, providing enhanced security since it requires much more force to open them compared to a hinged gate. You can sleep soundly knowing that your sliding electric gate is not only saving space but also offering reliable protection. Plus, our gates operate up to 60% faster than traditional swinging gates, meaning they open and close more quickly, reducing the time your gate remains open and exposed.
