Design

Dove Metalworks can design any style of gate or fencing that is functional, secure and exactly to your specifications; to suit you and your property. We use sustainably sourced hardwoods, and modern and traditional forging techniques. All of our gates and fencing are handmade in our UK workshop. Whether you are looking for something to finish the look of your home, or maybe something to increase the security of your premises we can help.

Security and Access

Dove Metalworks provides a full design, fabrication and installation service for gate systems.

We are qualified to fit:

• Wireless intercoms

• Keypad entry

• Loop in ground detectors for automatic entry and exit to the property

• Vehicle registration detection

• Safety edges

Automated Gates

• Sliding Gates - If your property has limited space, or you just prefer this style, sliding gates make a good solution to automating your gates. Gates can be fabricated from a variety of woods and metal and provide extra security compared to other gate styles. They are very versatile and can also be installed on flat or sloping ground.
  

• Swing Gates - This style can be added to any type of gate but requires much more space than a sliding gate. Automated swing gates work best on flat ground and provide a good level of security to a property. The automation is simpler and this method is more cost effective compared to other automation types.
  

• Above Ground - Above ground systems are by far the most cost effective systems available. They are post mounted and can even be installed to work with existing gates easily. Although not the most secure option, they still provide extra security compared to a non-automated gate.

  We also undertake civil works necessary to complete your project, including power cables, surrounding walls, gate posts etc. If you're ready to give us a call to discuss your needs, don't hesitate to give us a call now and we can visit your property to talk about your ideas and needs.

• Below Ground - Below ground systems provide a very secure way to automate access to your property. They provide the most aesthetically pleasing look to your property but do require excavation to install the automation system. Although being more expensive the system is more durable being underground as it is not exposed to weather.

If you are looking for a custom fabrication project that isn't a gate, it's very likely we can help. Please give us a call or email and we can talk about what we can do.
