A black vertical-bar metal cantilever sliding gate with a decorative cross-lattice top rail, fitted between rendered piers on a gravel driveway. Its top-mounted rolling system and automation unit allow smooth, ground-track-free operation for everyday vehicle access.
Description
This metal cantilever sliding gate is finished in black with slim vertical bar infill and a distinctive cross-lattice pattern running along the top rail. Photographed in position between two rendered pillars on a gravel driveway, the gate sits on a top-mounted rolling system rather than a ground track, with a grey automation unit housed at the base of the receiving pier ready to power the gate open and closed.
Design Details of This Sliding Gate
The design of this metal cantilever sliding gate combines a functional bar infill with a decorative finishing touch at the top.
Vertical Bar Infill
- Evenly spaced black vertical bars running the full height of the gate panel
- Open-style infill allowing clear visibility through to the driveway and garden beyond
- Consistent spacing gives a tidy, uniform appearance along the entire run
Cross-Lattice Top Rail
- A row of diagonal cross-lattice detailing set within the top horizontal rail
- Adds a decorative finish above the plain vertical bars without disrupting the clean overall line
- Top rail also houses the cantilever rollers that carry the gate’s weight
How This Cantilever Sliding Gate Operates
Unlike a track-mounted sliding gate, this metal cantilever sliding gate glides on rollers set into the top of the frame, meaning there is no channel embedded in the driveway surface for the gate to catch on.
- Cantilevered opening mechanism, keeping the ground surface clear beneath the gate
- Grey automation control box mounted on the receiving pier, connected to the gate’s drive system
- Suited to driveways where a level, unobstructed ground surface is preferred
Where This Gate Fits
Positioned here between two solid rendered piers on a gravel driveway, this metal cantilever sliding gate is suited to properties with a long, straight run to close off.
- Black powder-coated metal frame and bars visible throughout the panel
- Wide single-panel design for sliding across a driveway opening
- Compatible with pillar-mounted or wall-mounted automation as shown in the photograph
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this metal cantilever sliding gate automated?
The gate shown includes a fitted automation control unit mounted at the base of the pier, connected to the gate’s drive mechanism for opening and closing.

No, this is a cantilever design, meaning it rolls on rollers fitted within the top rail rather than running along a track set into the driveway.
