Built to Last – Services That Go the Distance
Custom Gate Design
Every property is different, and so is every gate we build. We’ll assess your site, listen to your goals, and create a custom design that’s both practical and visually aligned with your home or business. We use CAD design tools to bring concepts to life before fabrication begins.
In-House Fabrication
We manufacture all gates and components locally at our Bayswater facility. This allows us to control quality, ensure fast turnaround times, and build gates to exact specifications using materials like steel, aluminium, timber, Colorbond, and more.
Professional Installation
Our experienced installers ensure your gate is fitted securely, operates smoothly, and complements your surroundings. From structural posts to final finishes, we take care of every detail—no subcontractors, no shortcuts.
Gate Automation Systems & Access Control
We supply and install hydraulic and electromechanical automation systems for new and existing gates. Our team also integrates keypads, intercoms, remotes, and smart access technology to give you seamless control and peace of mind.
Safety Features & Upgrades
All automated gates include built-in safety measures like auto-reverse sensors and manual release systems. We also offer optional upgrades like safety beams, soft-stop motors, and timed auto-close to keep your property and loved ones protected.
Servicing & Repairs
Already have a gate that needs some attention? We offer repairs, motor replacements, automation upgrades, and regular maintenance for gates across Melbourne’s east. We’ll get your system working like new again.
Types of Gates We Design, Manufacture and Install
We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all. Every gate we create is designed from scratch, fabricated in-house, and installed by our experienced team. Our product range includes:
Sliding Gates
Ideal for narrow spaces or properties with limited space, sliding gates move along a track and are perfect for sloped driveways or tight driveways. We also offer bi-sliding gates (where two panels slide behind one another) and overhead sliding systems for situations with complex spatial constraints.
Swinging Gates
These classic hinged gates can be configured as single or double panels. They’re a great choice when aesthetics and traditional appeal matter, and we offer rising hinge options to accommodate sloping or uneven ground. We’ll advise on wind exposure and site access to ensure swing gates operate reliably.
Pedestrian Gates
Secure, convenient and matched to your fencing or main gates. A pedestrian gate gives you easy foot access to your property without compromising on security or design.
Cantilever Gates
For industrial or uneven ground installations, cantilever gates offer smooth, trackless movement and superior reliability—ideal for commercial and heavy-duty use and high-traffic areas.
Fencing & Infills
Complete your boundary with fencing and custom fence panels, including timber pickets, Colorbond, mesh, or perforated screens for added privacy. We also fabricate and install handrails, gate frames, locks and handles, and custom panels between brick piers.
Automatic Gate Opening Systems
A gate opening system can be integrated into each type of gate, and they are typically hydraulic or electromechanical. Hydraulic tends to be quieter and less affected by wind. If wind and noise don’t concern you, electromechanical can be a good choice because recent improvements have made them comparably reliable.
Premium Materials Built to Last and Enhance Your Property
At Long Life Gates, we combine durable materials with expert craftsmanship to deliver gates that look great, and withstand the elements and perform reliably for years to come.
We custom-build every gate using high-quality materials selected for their strength, weather resistance, and visual appeal:
Steel Gates & Wrought Iron Gates
Robust, secure, and timeless—ideal for both modern and traditional designs. All steel gates are available in ALLGAL Steel (galvanised steel) and Solid Wrought Iron for maximum durability.
Colorbond Fencing & Gate Panels
A popular choice for privacy and low maintenance. Colorbond panels come in a wide range of colours to match your home or business.
Timber Cladding & Timber Pickets
Perfect for a warm, natural finish. Choose from a range of hardwoods or composite timber options that pair beautifully with more durable metal gate frames.
Mesh & Perforated Screens
Great for modern facades and additional airflow while maintaining privacy. Often used between piers or as feature panels.
Aluminium Gates
A popular choice for those seeking lightweight, low-maintenance gates. Aluminium doesn’t rust and works especially well in coastal environments. It’s perfect for modern designs, and it can be powder coated in a wide range of colours for a sleek, high-end look.
Finishes & Protection
All gates can be finished with powder coating in your preferred colour, or hot dip galvanised for superior corrosion resistance—ideal for coastal or high-exposure locations. We supply and fit secure, high-quality locking mechanisms, latches, and handles to suit your gate’s design and your security requirements.
How to Choose the Right Gate Company:
- The ability to provide personalised solutions based on the unique requirements of each client. Every property is different, so no two automatic gate systems should be exactly alike.
- The experience necessary to create something that is pleasing to look at as well as easy and reliable to use. Superior gate design is more than a mere service; it should be considered an art.
- Products that are made to last for many years. A new gate is an investment, and it should serve you well into the future.
