Pedestrian gates provide a safe, convenient entry point for foot traffic, ensuring that your commercial or industrial site remains accessible yet secure. At Pro Fencing, we design and install robust, steel-framed pedestrian gates that integrate seamlessly with your existing fencing. Whether you’re managing a business park, school campus, or public-sector facility, our swing gates are engineered to meet high safety and security standards—while offering a welcoming look for authorised visitors.

From manual latching systems to advanced access control features (such as keypads, card readers, or intercoms), we tailor each gate to support your operational needs and maintain a professional perimeter.

Key Features & Benefits

• Secure Access Control
  Incorporate locks, keypads, or card readers to regulate who enters, helping you monitor and manage foot traffic effectively.

• Durable Construction
  Built with galvanised or powder-coated steel for corrosion resistance, ensuring longevity even in tough weather conditions.

• Smooth Operation
  Precision-engineered hinges and alignment reduce wear, providing a reliable swing action that’s easy to open and close.

• Integrated Safety
  Gates can be fitted with panic bars, push pads, or emergency release mechanisms, enhancing on-site safety for staff and visitors.

• Customisable Appearance
  A variety of designs, colours, and finishes let you match your gate to existing fencing, corporate branding, or architectural style.

Common Applications

• Business Parks & Office Complexes
  Provide secure pedestrian walkways for employees and visitors without compromising your perimeter’s integrity.

• Schools & Educational Facilities
  Maintain controlled entry points for students, staff, and parents, while clearly separating foot traffic from vehicular areas.

• Commercial Sites & Factories
  Grant authorised personnel easy foot access while keeping unauthorised visitors out, reducing overall security risks.

• Public-Sector & Council Properties
  Ensure a safe yet welcoming environment in parks, libraries, or council buildings that benefit from designated foot entrances.

Our Installation Process

1. Site Survey & Consultation
   We assess your fencing layout, discuss traffic flow, and confirm any specific lock or access control needs (e.g., keypad entry).

2. Design & Proposal
   You receive a detailed quote, including gate dimensions, materials, locking mechanisms, and any additional safety or compliance features.

3. Professional Installation
   Our CHAS and Constructionline-accredited team sets gate posts in concrete for stability, aligns the gate perfectly, and ensures all fixings are tamper-resistant.

4. Final Quality Checks
   We test the swing action, locks, and safety releases before sign-off. If your gate includes electronic controls, those systems are also tested.

5. Aftercare & Maintenance
   Although pedestrian swing gates need minimal upkeep, Pro Fencing is on hand for any adjustments, repairs, or upgrades as your site evolves.

Five FAQs

1. Q: Are pedestrian gates suitable for high-security sites?
   A: Absolutely. We can incorporate heavy-duty locks, anti-tamper fixings, or access control systems like card readers to bolster security levels.

2. Q: Do I need planning permission for a pedestrian gate?
   A: Usually not if it’s replacing or complementing existing fencing at standard heights (up to 2 metres). For taller gates or sensitive sites, local council approvals may apply.

3. Q: Can gates be automated?
   A: While typically manual, we can discuss low-energy automation or push-button operation if your site calls for powered entry—subject to relevant safety regulations (BS EN 12453).

4. Q: Are gates DDA-compliant for disabled access?
   A: We can fit wide swing gates, lever handles, or easy-latch mechanisms to meet DDA/Equality Act guidelines, ensuring inclusivity for wheelchair users or those with mobility issues.

5. Q: Can I add branding or signage to the gate?
   A: Yes. We frequently attach company logos, site directions, or safety signs to gate panels or posts, reinforcing your brand and providing clear guidance to visitors.
