Our aluminium swing gates are fabricated from extruded aluminium sections, allowing for a wide range of design styles. Every one of our gates is hand-crafted and finished by highly skilled craftsmen in a factory with 60 years of experience. The gates are pre-treated and top-coated with powdercoating for further protection and preventing corrosion. Consequently, our aluminium gates require minimal maintenance, offering complete peace of mind in regards to ongoing treatment.
As a result of their low maintenance qualities, aluminium swing gates prove to be a popular and effective alternative to timber gates, especially as they can be coated with high quality woodgrain finishes, creating the authentic appearance of timber.
It is possible to specify aluminium gates with ‘built in’ motors in the gate post or gate stiles. Most of the aluminium entrance gates installed by AGD Systems have been automated by FAAC 770 electro-mechanical motors or FAAC sliding gate motors but there are many more which are more specific to the style and weight of gate and relevant to how far you want your gates to swing through their opening cycle. It is possible to open up to nearly 180 degrees if required.
Dove Gates aluminium gate range carry up to a 25 year warranty, subject to the specific manufacturer’s terms and condition of sale. The powdercoating will also have very long warranty periods with caveats on the colour fastness.
These gates are made from aluminium and therefore can withstand a variety of weathers and are not easily corroded. They are light in weight but robust, and do not corrode or wear out as fast as steel or wooden gates. When well maintained, aluminium gates can serve their owners for years with very little maintenance.
Of course, the use of aluminium for driveway swing gates is very versatile since it can be formed in any design possible. They can be powder-coated to practically any colour that will match your home's exterior. Various designs, patterns, and decorative elements can be incorporated into the gate's structure making it completely bespoke.
Aluminium swing gates require a low level of maintenance compared to other materials. Regular maintenance usually involves diluting mild soap and washing the gate to remove the dirt and other particles which may be on the surface of the gate. Occasional oiling of the hinges and all the other movable parts (we recommend at least once a year). As opposed to wooded gates, that are painted or stained, aluminium does not require this treatment, and unlike steel it will rarely rust, making it the perfect option for long term use.
