Can your gates be made to measure?
Yes, all of our gates can be made to measure for a perfect fit. Whether you need a small garden gate or a large driveway entrance, we take precise measurements to ensure your gate is tailored to your space. Bespoke gate design also gives you the freedom to choose materials, finishes, and decorative details that complement your property, guaranteeing a solution that enhances both security and kerb appeal.
Do you provide gate automation?
Absolutely. Simply Secure specialises in gate automation, offering solutions such as underground motors, sliding systems, ram operators, and articulated arms. Automation provides convenience, security, and peace of mind, making it easy to open and close your gates at the touch of a button. We can also integrate access control features such as keypads, intercoms, remote controls, and even smartphone-operated systems to give you complete control over who enters your property.
What finishes are available on Simply Secure gates?
Our gates are electro galvanised and powder coated as standard, providing exceptional resistance to rust, weathering, and wear. Powder coating also ensures a sleek, durable finish that keeps your gate looking its best for years to come. We offer a variety of colour choices and custom finishes to suit your property, whether you prefer a classic black wrought iron look or a more modern painted finish.
Do you supply fencing and railings too?
Yes, Simply Secure supplies and installs high-quality fencing and railings alongside our gates. From traditional wrought iron railings for homes to robust steel fencing for commercial sites, we provide solutions that combine security with style. All fencing and railing systems are designed to complement your gates, ensuring a cohesive and professional appearance while strengthening the overall security of your property
Can Simply Secure gates be used for businesses as well as homes?
Yes. We design and install gates that are suitable for both residential and commercial properties. For homeowners, bespoke gates can add charm, security, and kerb appeal, while for businesses, we provide larger, heavy-duty gates designed to withstand regular use and integrate with advanced security systems. Many commercial clients choose automated gates with intercoms or CCTV to control access points effectively.
Do you provide aftercare and repairs?
Yes, Simply Secure offers full aftercare support, including servicing, maintenance, and repairs. We can even repair and maintain gates and systems not originally installed by us. Our team is experienced in handling all aspects of gate repair, from fixing automation faults to restoring decorative finishes, ensuring your gates remain safe, functional, and visually appealing for years to come.
Why are some shipping prices higher than expected?
Some of our products, such as heavy-duty gates, railings, and security equipment, are large and weighty items. Because of their size and weight, these products require specialist handling and delivery methods, which can make shipping costs higher than for smaller or lighter items.
That said, we always work hard to keep delivery costs as low as possible for our customers. We regularly review our shipping options, use trusted couriers, and aim to balance cost with the safe, secure delivery of your order. Our priority is ensuring your items arrive on time and in perfect condition, at the most competitive price we can achieve.
