Driveway gates in Cardiff
Supply and Fit Driveway Gates Across Cardiff and the Vale
A well-fitted driveway gate does three things: it finishes the front of your property, it gives you security and privacy, and it lasts. We've been fitting driveway gates across Cardiff for over 10 years, and the one thing we've learned is that the fit is everything. A gate that's correctly hung, with the right hardware, will still be working perfectly 15 years from now.
We work across Cardiff, Penarth, Barry, Dinas Powys, Llandough and the wider Vale of Glamorgan. We'll come out to measure your opening, advise on the right gate type and material for your property, and give you a written quote with no hidden extras.
What we install in Cardiff
Driveway Gate Types and Materials
We install all the main driveway gate types across Cardiff: wooden, composite and metal. Every gate is made to measure for your specific opening width and height.
Wooden Driveway Gates
Our most popular option. Pressure-treated featheredge or framed and ledged softwood gates, supplied and fitted to your opening. Available as single or double leaf, with full cross-brace framework for structural rigidity. Galvanised hinges and hardware as standard.
Composite Driveway Gates
Composite board infill panels set in a powder-coated aluminium or steel frame. No painting, no rotting, no warping. Available in grey, anthracite and wood-effect tones, and increasingly popular for contemporary Cardiff properties and new builds across the Vale.
Metal and Wrought Iron Gates
Steel or wrought iron driveway gates with vertical bar, railing or decorative designs. Powder-coated in black or colour-matched to your property. Suited to period properties, stone pillar entrances and larger driveway openings across Cardiff.
Made to Measure
Every driveway gate we fit is made to the exact width and height of your opening. We measure before ordering, account for ground clearance and post positions, and fit posts in concrete where required. No gaps, no drops, no off-sizing.

FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions About Driveway Gates
Do you install driveway gates across Cardiff?
Yes. We supply and fit driveway gates across Cardiff and the surrounding areas, including Penarth, Barry, Dinas Powys, the Vale of Glamorgan, Caerphilly and beyond. We're based in Penarth CF64 ourselves, so the whole of Cardiff and the Vale is on our doorstep. Call 029 2271 5157 or request a free quote online and we'll confirm coverage for your postcode.
What types of driveway gate do you supply and fit in Cardiff?
We install wooden driveway gates, composite driveway gates and metal or wrought iron driveway gates across Cardiff. Wooden gates are our most popular option: pressure-treated softwood with full cross-brace framework and galvanised hardware. Composite gates with aluminium or steel frames are increasingly popular for contemporary properties. Metal and wrought iron designs suit period homes and larger openings. All gates are made to measure for your specific opening.
Do I need planning permission for driveway gates in Cardiff?
In most cases, no. Driveway gates up to 2 metres high generally fall within permitted development rights in Wales and do not need planning permission. The main exceptions are listed buildings, conservation areas covered by an Article 4 direction, and gates next to a road used by vehicles (or its pavement), where the limit drops to 1 metre. Gates next to a pavement or road also shouldn't open outwards over it. Parts of Cardiff and Penarth are conservation areas, so it is worth a quick check with the council if you are unsure. We are happy to advise when we visit for the quote.
How much do driveway gates cost in Cardiff?
The cost depends on the gate size, material and whether new posts are required. Wooden double gates start from £900 supply and fit for a basic featheredge pair, rising with size and design, composite gates from £2,000, and metal or wrought iron from £2,800. Post installation in concrete is included in our quotes. We always provide a written, itemised quote after visiting the site, with no hidden extras.
How long does driveway gate installation take?
Most driveway gate installations are completed in one day. Where new concrete posts are being set, these need 24 to 48 hours to cure before the gates are hung, so a two-visit process is sometimes required. We will confirm the timeline when we provide your quote, based on your specific installation requirements.
Can you fit driveway gates to existing pillars or posts?
Yes. In many cases we can fit new gates to existing brick pillars, concrete posts or timber posts where they are structurally sound and correctly spaced. We will assess the existing posts or pillars at the site visit and advise honestly whether they are suitable or whether new posts would give you a better result. There is no obligation and no charge for the site visit.
What areas near Cardiff do you also cover for driveway gates?
As well as Cardiff, we regularly install driveway gates in Penarth, Barry, Dinas Powys, Llandough, Sully, Wenvoe, Llantwit Major, Rhoose, St Athan, Rumney, St Mellons, Caerphilly and across the Vale of Glamorgan.
