We're regularly out in Gretna, just over the Scottish border, along the M6 and A74(M) – a short run from our Carlisle base. We supply, automate, repair and service electric gates for homes and businesses across the area.
Gates around Gretna
The kind of work we do in and around Gretna:
- Modern homes wanting contemporary gates – aluminium and anthracite steel are favourites

- Business premises and yards that need dependable, secure gates and access control

Automatic Gates in Gretna
Homes and businesses in Gretna are a short drive from our Carlisle base, so automatic gates here get the same attention as a job on our own doorstep. We fit swing, sliding and bifold gates, automate existing ones and look after them for years afterwards.
Modern homes suit clean lines – aluminium or anthracite steel gates with slim motors look the part. On a typical family driveway, a pair of swing gates on overground motors is a reliable, good-value setup that's easy to service.
Every electric gate we install in Gretna is surveyed first, priced in writing and fitted by Adrian, who has 16 years of experience installing gates. We also cover nearby Gretna Green, Annan and Longtown.
Electric Gate Installation for Gretna Properties
Before anything is ordered, we check the width and slope of the entrance, the strength of the posts or pillars, and where the power will come from. That's what lets us choose the right gate and the right CAME motors for it. Over the border in Gretna, the same standards apply as on our English jobs.
Safety is built in: photocells and safety edges where they're needed, a force test to BS EN 12453 and a Declaration of Conformity at handover. As BIGAA members, we follow the safety regulations for electrical work and gate automation on every job.
New installations come with a 3-year parts and labour warranty, and we're here for servicing and repairs whenever you need us.
