Composite Driveway Gates (Bespoke, Made In The UK)

Our driveway gates are designed to bring privacy, security and a more refined finish to the front of your property, whether you are upgrading an existing entrance or planning a completely new layout. If you are looking for gates that feel bespoke rather than off the shelf, this collection combines UK-made craftsmanship with durable materials and made-to-measure design. Each gate is built to your chosen height and width, giving you the flexibility to create an entrance that suits both the proportions of your home and the overall style of the property.

Our composite driveway gates combine the strength of aluminium framing with the long-lasting performance of weatherproof composite slats and decorative inserts, creating a premium look without the upkeep associated with traditional timber. They are designed to offer a smart, consistent finish across the front of the home while helping improve privacy and define the entrance more clearly. With a wide choice of colours, finishes and configurations available, it is easy to create a gate that feels clean and contemporary or something more classic in character.

This collection also includes options that work across a range of entrance types and property layouts. Alongside our wider composite gates collection, you can also shop our pedestrian gates for side access and everyday entry, or sliding gates for larger openings where space and practicality are key. Every design is bespoke made in the UK and backed by a lifetime warranty, giving you confidence in both the appearance and long-term performance of your gate.

Charles & Ivy offers a made-to-measure UK service focused on premium materials, design flexibility and lasting quality.

FAQs

Do I need planning permission to put a gate on my driveway?

As a rule of thumb, you will not need to obtain planning permission from a local council if an existing gate, garden wall, or boundary exists.

However, if the new gates for your driveway are higher than your old ones, you will need to seek approval first.

If the gate is over 1 metre high and your driveway is adjacent to a busy road (or 2 metres high anywhere else) you will need to acquire planning permission to install a gate.

If you’re still not sure whether your driveway gates require planning approval, your local authority will be best placed to advise you.

Once you’ve established whether planning permission is needed, you’ll find plenty of inspiration over on our blog page.

What is the best material for driveway gates?

Composite driveway gates are the most eco-friendly type on the market, combining recyclable materials that would otherwise end up in the landfill. 

Composite gates for driveways are more expensive than authentic wooden gates, but they save you money on maintenance - requiring little more than an occasional clean.

Metal driveway gates, such as aluminium, are more durable than their wooden counterparts and require less maintenance than steel.

Aluminium is also resistant to corrosion and rust, lightweight, and easy to install.

Visit our blog to see examples of our fantastic composite fencing gates and aluminium driveway gates. 

How high can driveway gates be in the UK?

The height at which driveway gates can be installed depends on where you live.

For example, if your gates open onto a private road, you can erect a gate system that is 2 metres tall without seeking planning permission.

If the gate opens onto a public road or footpath, it must not exceed 1 metre - otherwise, planning permission will be required.
