Sliding Gate Automation in Yorkshire

What is included

A cantilever or tracked sliding gate motor sized to the leaf weight, control panel, two remotes, manual release, guide roller check, photocells and safety edges, and a force test before handover. Track condition is corrected before the motor goes on.

Typical sliding prices in Yorkshire

Cantilever kits need no ground track (they run on rollers beside the gate) and suit uneven or sloping drives better than tracked sliders.

Yorkshire homes and sliding

Sliding gates suit short drives and sloping plots across Yorkshire: the leaf runs sideways instead of arcing, so cars can park right up to the line. Homes around Harrogate, York, Wetherby, Selby with tight frontages ask for cantilever kits most often.

What we check before quoting

• Gate type, leaf weight and pivot geometry: swing gates need room to arc, sliders need run-back.
• Condition of hinges, tracks and posts: automation is only fitted to gates that move freely by hand.
• Power supply at the gate: armoured cable run, or solar and battery options where digging is not practical.
• Safety provision: photocells, safety edges and force testing to BS EN 12453, included in every automation quote.
