The gate is an essential element that offers several advantages: not only does it contribute to securing a property against any attempt at break-in, but it is also a decorative asset that will enhance the external appearance of your home.
There are two main categories of gates:
sliding gates;
swing gates.
A sliding gate, as its name suggests, slides on a rail. To install it safely, make sure you have, on the opening side, a clear space at least equal to its length.
A swing gate has two leaves that pivot on hinges fixed on the pillars. To integrate the swing gate into your garden, there must not be any obstacle that hinders its opening.
The choice of a gate depends on several criteria, including the space available and the practicality desired. The best gate is therefore the one that best fits the configuration of your garden, your needs, and preferences. Moreover, gates need to be matched with wickets and fences.
Technically, the choice is based on the opening, which defines whether to favor sliding or swing gates. You also need to choose between the range of openwork, wire, or barred gates and that of solid gates. An openwork or barred gate is suitable for locations particularly exposed to the wind. A solid gate plays more of an obscuring and aesthetic role.
In terms of aesthetics, everything is a question of preferences, but also of budget. The latter defines the quality and the design of the product. Indeed, a gate of good quality or design has a higher price. In return, the product is durable, robust, and comes with a warranty for several years.
Whether swing or sliding, gates can benefit from motorization for more practicality and comfort. Some models are sold with specific motorization in a kit, but it is possible to motorize a gate alone with a compatible motor.
The most common materials are wood, PVC, aluminum, and steel. Wood is a warm and naturally elegant material. It will give you full satisfaction provided that you maintain it. PVC has low prices, but is less durable, aluminum and steel are aesthetic and require almost no maintenance.
Regarding RAL colors, you have a choice! Warm colors (beige, brown, yellow, red) are good for natural styles. Neutral colors (black, white, anthracite) go well with contemporary vibes. Cold colors like green, blue, purple bring a personal touch.
First of all, space is the main criterion because, indeed, municipalities generally prohibit the leaves from opening onto the public roadway. Therefore, sufficient space is needed to set back the wall if you wish to install a swing gate.
For a home located at the edge of a road, it is preferable to opt for a sliding gate. Indeed, this type of gate offers a double advantage: not only does it not encroach on the roadway, but it doesn’t require any space to be cleared during its opening.
Furthermore, its installation is not difficult. Very practical and with a modern appearance, it meets current European standards. You can also find another type of metal gate, the swing type. It comes in a few varieties.
There are those that open to 90° and those to 180°, from the inside or the outside depending on your need. In any case, make sure that the gate matches well with the wicket if you have one, the fence, the garden, and the exteriors of the house.
The distance between 2 gate pillars must be adapted to the width of the gate to be installed and vice versa. The standard width of a gate is between 3 and 3.5 meters. Therefore, the distance between gate pillars must be adjusted accordingly.
This is a crucial criterion if you have not yet installed the pillars. To configure a swing gate, ideally plan for an additional 6 to 7 cm of space between pillars to compensate for the play of the gate. Conversely, deduct this measurement from the gate if the pillars are already in place.
If the gap between pillars is outside standard measurements, there are customizable gate models available. As for a sliding gate, the width is equal to the gap between pillars. However, lateral clearance that corresponds to the same width, plus about 8 cm, must be planned.
