Why a slide gate is a smart move?
Security
A gate is your first line of defense, and a very effective deterrent. Potential offenders will simply choose an easier target over your gated property.
Peace of Mind
Knowing your young children and pets are safe from busy roads and free to roam your entire property without worry.
More space
With the gate closed, you’ll have private & secure use of your section right up to the fence line, so family are free to roam your entire property.
Privacy
Your house is your castle, right?! We can’t dig you a moat, but a gate is the next best option.

I want my gate installed by a professional.
No worries, the process is simple:
Arrange a site visit with an installer
Check the top of your quote for a list of preferred installers, and make contact with one to arrange a visit your property – they’ll confirm measurements, ensure the quoted hardware is suitable for your property, and provide a quote for installation costs.
Know a trusted fencer, builder or landscaper? You’re welcome to use your own contractor, and most in these trades are more than capable of installing your gate.
Review the installation quote, and our (Southern Gates) quote
Review the quote provided by your installer and ours – the combination of both will be the total cost for supply and installation of your gate system. Come back to either of us with any questions, we’re happy to help.
Confirm you’re ready to proceed
Once you’re happy with both our hardware quote, and the installer’s quote, let us know and we’ll get your project underway. We’ll work directly with your installer to ensure the entire project runs smoothly start to finish.
Does Southern Gates offer an installation service?
We supply gates and hardware only — we do not carry out or manage installations.
This approach keeps costs lower, gives you flexibility to choose your preferred installer, and results in a faster gate install.
We understand some customers prefer a one-stop-shop service, and while that can suit some projects, it often comes at a higher overall cost.
I’m installing the gate myself, or considering it at least
If you’ve ever built a fence or deck, are confident with DIY projects, and have the necessary tools, installing a slide gate can be a rewarding project.
