Composite Gates Prices
Composite gates cost €400–€500 for a side gate kit and €1,350–€1,550 for a side gate made to measure. A driveway pair is €600–€950 and a sliding gate €900–€1,100 for the gate alone; fitting and any motor are priced on top.
Gate by gate, then the fitting and the electric extras, each on its own line so quotes compare.
Free, no obligation. One local installer prices it, not five.

See it first
See a composite gate on your own opening
Upload a photo of the side passage, garden entrance or driveway, pick the gate, the boards and the frame, and see it in about a minute. Your request goes to one gate installer who covers your county.
Step 1 of 3
No photo handy?
Step 2 of 3
Drawing your gate. This takes 20 to 50 seconds.
Your request is already through, so you can close this page if you need to.
That's an AI preview, not a drawing to build from. The installer measures the opening before pricing it.
We couldn't do this one. Some photos don't work: a clearer, wider shot in daylight usually does.
Your request is in: you'll still get a call with a price.

Reading a quote
Why prices vary so much
Because a gate price can mean three different things: the gate alone, the gate hung on what's there, or the whole job with new piers, a motor and the power. Ask which one you're looking at.
- Kit or made to measure? A kit is cut to your width at home; a made-to-measure gate is built to the opening.
- What does it hang on? A sound wall or pier, new posts, or new piers and foundations.
- Is the motor in it? And the photo beams, remotes and the manual release.
- Is VAT shown? Get it in writing.
