Secure, Stylish Entry Solutions for Residential and Commercial PropertiesSingle Swinging Gates
Single swinging gates are a practical, durable, and stylish solution for properties that require secure, space-efficient access points. As a popular choice for driveways, garden paths, and side entrances, single swinging gates provide a streamlined entry without compromising on design or security. With the right swing gate configuration, you can improve the overall aesthetic value and functionality of your property while maintaining a consistent fence line and access system.
Whether you are replacing an old gate or planning a new gate for your fencing project, single swinging gates are an excellent option for both small and large sites. They offer a custom solution that works well on flat or sloping ground, and are ideal for properties where a double swing gate may not be suitable due to limited swing space or structural requirements.
Why Choose Single Swinging Gates?
The design of single swinging gates makes them a great option for homeowners and businesses looking for a straightforward, effective access solution. They open from one side, supported by a post and set of robust hinges, and can be installed to swing inward or outward based on the layout of your site.
Here’s why single swinging gates continue to be a popular choice:
- Require less space to install compared to double gates
- Offer an elegant, clean design suitable for residential and commercial use
- Fit seamlessly into existing fences, particularly where there’s only room for one gate leaf
- Cost-effective without compromising on function or quality
These gates are commonly used for pedestrian access, narrow driveway entries, and other points where space and functionality need to align without overcomplicating the design.

Single vs Double Swing Gate: What’s Right for Your Property?
Choosing between a single swinging gate and a double swing gate comes down to the layout of your site, the width of your driveway, and the type of access required.
Single swinging gates:
- Open in one direction, ideal for driveways with limited depth or a narrow design
- Require one post and one leaf, reducing hardware and installation costs
- Are suitable for areas with a single vehicle lane or pedestrian-only access
Double swing gate:
- Opens from the centre, offering a wider entrance span
- Better suited for larger driveways or areas with heavy vehicle use
- Requires more space and higher material costs due to the second gate leaf
