This is a heavy-duty metal sliding driveway gate finished in anthracite grey, featuring vertical infill bars topped with a decorative criss-cross trellis panel. Built on a cantilever track system, it glides smoothly along the driveway without a bottom-mounted rail obstructing the surface.
Description
This metal sliding driveway gate combines a robust vertical bar infill with a decorative criss-cross trellis section along the top rail, all finished in a smart anthracite grey powder coating. Operating on a cantilever track system with heavy-duty support posts, this gate slides clear of the driveway surface, making it a practical choice for properties where a swing gate isn’t suitable.
Design and Build of This Metal Sliding Driveway Gate
The gate is constructed from heavy metal box-section framing with evenly spaced vertical bars, giving a strong yet visually open feel that still allows a clear line of sight into the driveway.
Cantilever Track System
Rather than running along a floor-mounted rail, this gate rides on an overhead cantilever mechanism supported by a substantial steel post at each end, keeping the driveway surface free of tracks or grooves.
Decorative Trellis Top
A criss-cross trellis panel runs across the top third of the gate, adding a distinctive decorative touch that breaks up the straight vertical bars and gives the design added kerb appeal.
Finish and Materials
Every panel of this metal sliding driveway gate is powder coated in a dark anthracite finish, giving a smooth, even coverage across the frame, bars and trellis detailing.
- Powder coated metal construction in anthracite grey
- Vertical bar infill with criss-cross trellis top section
- Heavy box-section framing for structural rigidity
- Cantilever track system with reinforced support posts
Why Choose This Sliding Gate for Your Driveway
A metal sliding driveway gate on a cantilever system is well suited to driveways that slope, have limited swing space, or sit close to a road, as the gate travels sideways rather than swinging outward or inward.
- No bottom track to clear of debris, ice or leaves
- Vertical bar design maintains visibility to and from the property
- Anthracite powder coated finish suits contemporary brick and render façades
- Straightforward to pair with automated gate systems
