You might say that luxury homes have greater stakes riding on their gates than more modest homes do. They must embody the idea of luxury in every aspect. Further, they often have more to protect inside.
The gates for luxury homes can differ in other ways too; they may be larger and grander, located further away from the house, and require more sophisticated remote access and security systems. And it almost goes without saying that they need to be built strong and look good.
Langford has a long history of building high-end gates for luxury homes, and we know that, above all, it is attention to detail in all of these aspects that ensures a gate will be the equal of the property it both enhances and protects. Here are some details we believe you should consider.
The design of a gate is contingent on many things; the architecture of the house, the size of the driveway, the style of surrounding fences and the type of opening – sliding, swing or folding. Bringing all these elements together so they all work in harmony is a crucial consideration.
Choosing the right materials is essential, in that they both complement your home and provide long-term durability. Aluminium, our metal of choice, provides a lightweight, rust-resistant alternative to iron. Wood brings a natural look and marries nicely with painted villas and bungalows, fixed to powder-coated metal frames for strength and durability.
Automated gates make entering and exiting your property easy and help keep yards secure for children and pets. Motorised systems provide in-car and house operation at the touch of a button. European technology and energy-efficient motors operate smoothly, with programmable electronics for reliable and safe opening and closing.
Luxury homes demand advanced security solutions, and our high-end gates include smart technologies, such as video surveillance, sensors and remote operation. Reinforced frames and lock systems add an extra layer of protection, giving homeowners peace of mind.
At Langford, we always ensure that your chosen gate aligns with the style, quality and security needs of your property.
