This is a black vertical bar metal sliding driveway gate, mounted on a track and running alongside brick piers with an automated motor unit. Its open cantilever-style bars offer clear sightlines onto the driveway while giving a secure, framed boundary line.
Description
This metal sliding driveway gate is shown in a black powder-coated finish, fitted with vertical bar infill and running along a floor-mounted track between two brick piers. It’s an ideal solution for wider driveway openings where a swinging gate isn’t practical, offering a clean, secure sweep across the entrance.
Design and Visible Features
The gate frame is built from box-section steel uprights with evenly spaced vertical bars, giving good visibility through to the driveway and road beyond while still forming a solid physical barrier.
Automation and Track
- Ground-level sliding track guiding the gate’s full opening motion
- Boxed automation unit and motor housing positioned at the base of the leading pier
- Guide rollers visible along the top rail for smooth, controlled travel
Frame and Finish
- Solid black-coated box-section perimeter frame
- Slim vertical infill bars spaced along the full length of the gate
- Brick pier mounting points either side of the driveway entrance
Why Choose This Sliding Gate Style
A metal sliding driveway gate like this suits properties where space behind the gate line needs to stay clear, since the leaf slides parallel to the boundary rather than swinging inward or outward. The open bar design also keeps the entrance feeling light and doesn’t block views of approaching traffic or visitors.
