Discover the Beauty of Bespoke Metal Gates for Your Driveway
When you arrive home, the first thing that greets you is your front gate. At Cheshire Composite Gates, we know how much of a difference a well-made driveway gate can make. It’s not just about keeping your home secure, it’s also about making a statement that reflects your style and personality. Our bespoke metal gates are the perfect blend of strength, beauty and character, crafted just for you.
We take pride in creating custom-fabricated driveway gate designs that do more than simply open and close. They add charm, elegance and a unique feel to your home exterior. If you want to explore stunning gate designs built to your exact measurements and style needs, you’re in the right place.
Let’s walk through what makes our bespoke gates special and how they can bring convenience, security and classic appeal to your home.
What Are Bespoke Metal Gates?
Bespoke metal gates are designed and made specifically for your property. Unlike ready-made gates you’ll find in shops, bespoke gates are tailored to fit your space perfectly. This means everything from the size of the gate to the pattern of the metalwork is created by hand to match what you want.
You get to decide the shape, style, colour and finish too. Whether you live in a modern home or a country cottage, bespoke metal gates add that extra touch of class that off-the-shelf gates simply can’t match.
At Cheshire Composite Gates, we make custom-fabricated driveway gate designs that reflect your ideas. You can go for classic scrollwork, clean contemporary lines, or something artistic and bold. If you can imagine it, we can build it.
Stylish Security: Why Driveway Gates Matter
Let’s be honest, the world isn’t always as safe as we’d like it to be. That’s why security matters. But who says safety can’t look good at the same time?
Driveway gates provide a visible and strong barrier between your home and the outside world. Swing or sliding gates, built from solid metal, make it a lot harder for anyone to wander onto your property uninvited. With added options like electric openers and keypads, the modern driveway gate gives you comfort and peace of mind without needing to step outside.
We design our bespoke metal gates not just to protect, but to impress. When you pull up to your drive, you’ll feel proud of what you see.

Designed for You – Every Step of the Way
One of the best things about choosing a bespoke gate is that everything is made around you. We don’t just measure and cut, we listen. Most people who come to us already have an idea of what they like. Others need help choosing a design that suits their home and surroundings. Either way, we offer helpful advice to turn your vision into a fully built gate.
We start with a walkaround to see your space and hear your thoughts. We’ll talk materials, finishes, colours, and even automation options. Want a gate that opens with a remote control? No problem. Prefer a manual setup with low-key hinges? That works too.
Once we’ve got the design plan locked in, we start crafting your gate in our workshop using high-quality steel and aluminium. From neat welds to powder-coated finishes, we do everything to ensure it looks flawless and stands the test of time.
Metal Gate Styles That Speak Volumes
Every home is different, and so should be your gate. Some of our most loved styles include:
Traditional Scrollwork
Perfect for older properties or those going for a stately look, scrollwork designs feature swirls and curls in the bars of the gate. Often painted in deep black or rich bronze, they blend well with stone or brick driveways.
Sleek and Modern
For new-build homes or those with a more minimal look, you can go for smooth, boxy designs with flat bars and clean patterns. These gates can be powder-coated in grey, black or even bolder colours like blue or green.
Mixed Material Gates
We also offer gates that mix metal and composite panels for added flair. These gates give you privacy with panels that can match your fencing or garage door, while still keeping the structural strength of metal. If you’re interested in a wide range of custom options, Cheshire Composite Gates offers a great collection of designs.
Ornate Decorative Panels
Do you want something that turns heads? We can include laser-cut panels or custom symbols in the gate. Whether that’s your initials, a family crest, or a wildlife scene, these gates are like artwork for your driveway.
Built to Last in British Weather
We all know what the British forecast looks like. Rain one second, sunshine the next. That’s why our gates are built strong to deal with everything from salty coastal air to heavy winds in the country.
We use weather-resistant materials like galvanised steel and stainless fixings so your gate keeps its good looks year after year. Powder-coating adds an extra layer of protection and allows you to choose the colour you want, knowing it won’t fade or rust in a few months.
Whether you live in the city or the countryside, your gate stands on the front line. Ours are made not just for one season, but for many.
Easy Living with Gate Automation
One of our favourite parts of building bespoke metal gates is fitting them with electric openers. Imagine driving up to your home and opening your gate with one press of a button, straight from the warmth of your car. Now that’s comfort.
Many homeowners are now choosing gate automation as the smart way to add convenience and security to daily life. We can install systems that work by remote control, keypad or even smartphone app. You’ll never have to leave guests waiting in the rain again.
Electric gate systems come with safety features too, like obstacle sensors and timed closing. So you get both style and smart features in one neat package.

FAQs
Can you design a gate for a sloped driveway?
Yes. We design gates for all kinds of grounds. If your driveway slopes or has an unusual layout, we’ll build the gate to suit it.
How long does it take to make a gate?
Every gate is different, but on average, it takes us 3 to 6 weeks from start to finish. That includes designing, building, painting and fitting.
Do I need to maintain my gate?
Our gates are coated to protect them from rust and damage, but we do recommend a quick clean now and then to keep them looking their best.
Can I choose a colour that matches my house?
Absolutely. We offer a wide choice of powder-coated colours, including custom shades to match your windows, doors or fencing.
What about privacy? Can gates block the view of my property?
Yes. Many of our clients choose designs with composite or metal panels that give complete privacy from the street.
Is planning permission needed for metal gates?
In most cases, no planning permission is needed. But if you live in a listed property or conservation area, it’s always best to check with your council.
