Description
These contemporary aluminium driveway gates use flat vertical bars set close together to strike a balance between privacy and a refined, slender profile. The flat face of each bar catches light differently to a round or square section, giving the gate a smooth, almost solid appearance from an angle that opens up as you pass square-on.
The tight spacing leans the design toward seclusion, screening the drive well while still admitting slivers of light between the bars. It is a clean, contemporary treatment with no applied ornament, relying entirely on proportion and repetition for its quietly confident effect.
Matt black keeps the close-set bars uniform and sharp, reading as a fine ribbed plane across each leaf against a pale frontage. The double-leaf format holds the bar rhythm continuous across the central meeting stile, so the closed gates present a seamless, uninterrupted face.
Each pair is fabricated to your surveyed opening, so the bar pitch remains consistent and the degree of privacy stays exactly as intended across your full width. Rust-proof throughout and finished in a hard-wearing powder coat, the gates hold their crisp look with minimal upkeep, and their light weight makes automation an easy addition.
The flat-bar profile gives this gate a slightly more substantial, tailored feel than an open slat design, which suits the crisp white modern home with granite detailing shown here. In a paler finish the bars would soften visually while keeping their close-set privacy, offering a quieter alternative for a contemporary frontage. The powder-coated finish is baked on for a smooth, even skin that resists chips and holds its colour through sun and rain. Because there is no steel core to rust, the close-set bars stay clean-edged even on exposed or coastal plots, and the rigid aluminium frame keeps them true across the full width. Matching railings or a pedestrian gate can be produced in the same close-bar style to carry the look along the boundary.
