Feltham · West London
For low-maintenance wrought iron gates Feltham homeowners have a practical starting point: powder-coated steel or iron, made to fit the entrance. Modern Gates offers made-to-measure gates with manual or automated operation. A durable finish matters, but so does a layout that opens comfortably around parked cars and remains straightforward to look after.

01
A new gate should not become a demanding weekend maintenance job. Our steel and iron gates are powder-coated, providing a protective finish that helps keep upkeep manageable. Low maintenance does not mean maintenance-free, though: occasional cleaning and checks for damage remain worthwhile, particularly where the gate could be knocked by bins, bicycles or car doors.
Feltham has a varied mix of terraced and semi-detached homes, with many frontages accommodating both parking and access to the front door. Across Feltham and towards Bedfont and Hanworth, the available space can differ considerably between properties. Choosing an opening arrangement that avoids everyday knocks is just as important to lasting appearance as choosing the finish.
02
Traditional wrought iron can complement an older brick frontage, while a simpler steel design can suit a more recently updated driveway. Both are available with powder-coated finishes; cedar timber is an optional finish if you prefer the warmth of wood. Our made-to-measure single and double swing gates provide a familiar entrance layout, provided there is enough room for the leaves to move without conflicting with parking or pedestrian access.
On a short driveway, the space beside the entrance may be more useful than the space behind it. Sliding driveway gates move along the boundary rather than swinging across the parking area, making them worth considering for tight turns or sloped entrances. They still need suitable space for the gate to travel. Where the boundary turns a corner, a turn-and-slide layout may be another option; its turning track and space requirements are confirmed at survey.

You can choose manual operation or motors for automated opening, with an intercom or without one. Think about how you actually arrive home: whether you usually walk, drive straight onto the frontage or need to manoeuvre into a parking space. On entrances facing busier local routes, it is especially useful to consider where a vehicle will wait while the gate opens, without assuming automation alone solves the access layout.
An intercom gives you a way to communicate with visitors before allowing access. If the property has a separate side passage, matching pedestrian gates can keep the colour, finish and hardware consistent without requiring the driveway gate to open for every arrival. Keypad, code lock and smart lock options are available for pedestrian gates. Any automated equipment should also form part of your maintenance planning.
04
Request a site survey online in three quick steps. We measure at your Feltham property, then make the gate to measure and fit it. The survey is the point to discuss the opening space, driveway slope, parking arrangement and your preferred operation, so the specification reflects the actual entrance rather than an estimated gap between posts.

Keeping a powder-coated gate in good condition involves more than looking at the visible face. Check for chips or scrapes, notice any change in movement, and keep the gate’s travel area clear. For a sliding layout, debris around the travel path deserves attention; for swing gates, watch for rubbing, sagging or an opening movement that has become uneven. Ask for care advice appropriate to the finish rather than using abrasive cleaning methods.
If your current entrance is becoming stiff, noisy or unreliable, explore gate repairs and maintenance before deciding on replacement. Modern Gates provides both services. Describe whether the problem concerns the metalwork, movement or automated operation when you enquire, and call 020 3576 4733 to discuss the next step.
Powder coating is a protective finish intended to keep upkeep manageable, rather than make annual repainting a routine requirement. It still needs care: check for damaged areas and seek advice if you notice exposed metal or deterioration. No finish should be treated as maintenance-free.
The available opening and travel space need measuring first. A sliding gate can be useful where swing leaves would take up parking space, but it needs room along the boundary. The survey helps establish which layout suits your driveway.
Yes. Manual or automated operation and intercom provision are separate choices. You can choose motors without an intercom, or include an intercom as part of your access arrangements.
Pricing is calculated using width × height × a square-metre rate. Use the product calculators on the website and select either Delivery only or Supply and fit. Accurate measurements are important when planning your order.
