Older houses, traditional gates
Many larger properties around Englefield Green have traditional timber or iron gates that were automated years after they were hung. Heavy old gates and worn hinges are hard on motors, and older control boards can be difficult to get parts for. A new board, and sometimes stronger motors, often solves repeated faults.
Parts of Englefield Green are conservation areas, so check with Runnymede Borough Council before changing how your gates look. Repairs and re-motoring existing gates don't usually need permission.

Can old wooden gates be automated?
Often, yes, if the gates are sound and the posts and hinges can take the load. An engineer will check the weight and condition first and recommend the right motors.
