dramatic ENTRANCE
The front of your house is the first thing visitors see when they approach your property, and its appearance will impact their lasting judgement on your home.
While an entrance gate’s primary purpose is to protect your property, it also serves a critical part in boosting kerb appeal, setting the tone for the rest of your home and potentially adding value to your property.
Whether you’re looking to sell or want to upscale your property’s appearance, a new entrance gate can add real ‘wow’ factor. Not only will it improve the security of your property, a stylish yet sturdy one will give a sterling first impression. It will demonstrate your seriousness about security, while also taking care of the appearance of your home.
When it comes to choosing the design, style, and finish you’ll be spoilt for choice. From ornamental gates; designed to deliver a harmonious aesthetic through regal metal railings, to traditional timber entrance gates, there’s an option out there to suit every entrance size at any property, whatever the location.
Although every gate will add some degree of privacy, the level of discretion will vary depending on the design of the gate you choose. First, consider your essential requirements for installing an entrance gate. For example, metal railing gates are more exposed than solid timber gates, so if you have small children or pets it is worth considering the latter as they provide a higher level of security.
As well as adding a statement-making finishing
touch to your entrance, a new gate will act as an effective physical deterrent to any prospective trespassers or burglars. Automated gates are becoming increasingly popular, not only for additional convenience but also for the comfort of added security. Investing in an automated gate will give you full control over who has access in or out, while also guaranteeing that your entrance gate is never left open. When selecting an automatic gate, you should ensure that it is installed by a registered engineer to confirm it is safe.
Go one step further and ensure the entrance gate you choose is built to complement any existing fences or walls. This will create a seamless initial aesthetic, which commands attention, increases security, and enhances the visual appeal of your home.
