Electric and Solar Gates in Lymington and the New Forest
The New Forest is a special place to live, and its properties reflect that: country houses at the end of long drives, smallholdings and paddocks, cottages on open forest, and coastal homes around Lymington and Milford on Sea. Entrances here are often far from the house, and free-roaming ponies and cattle mean a gate has a real job to do.
Solar off-grid gates
Running mains power to an entrance a long way from the house can mean digging up a drive, a lawn or a field. A solar off-grid gate avoids that. A panel charges a battery that runs the gate motor, so you can automate an entrance where there's no power nearby. We'll check at the survey whether your entrance gets enough light.
Estate and country entrances
For larger properties, we design and manufacture gates to suit the house and its setting – often traditional swing gates in timber or metal. A GSM intercom lets visitors call your mobile from the gate, so you can answer from the house, the garden or anywhere else. Every installation is force tested before handover.
Keeping livestock in, and out
A reliably closing gate keeps forest animals off your drive and your own animals safe. Regular servicing, at least every six months, keeps it closing properly.
Coastal homes around Lymington
Salt air near the Solent is hard on motors and metalwork. Servicing spots wear and corrosion early, and you get a written report and paperwork after every visit.

We repair gates fitted by other companies as well as our own, quoting after an on-site assessment. 24-hour call-outs are available. Our gate health check includes force testing and a written report. We're a Gate Safe Aware Installer – see our accreditations. See all services.
