Electric Gates & Perimeter Security Across Dundee & Angus

CM Gates & Barriers designs, installs, repairs and maintains electric gates, automatic barriers and access control systems for homes, estates, businesses and managed sites across Dundee and Angus.

The area includes everything from premium residential properties around Broughty Ferry and Monifieth to education, commercial and industrial sites across Dundee, Arbroath, Forfar, Montrose and Brechin, as well as larger rural properties throughout the Angus countryside.

That means the right entrance system can vary considerably from one site to another. Privacy, appearance and convenience may be the priority for a residential property, while traffic flow, staff access, duty cycle and long-term reliability are often more important for commercial and operational sites.

With design, engineering, fabrication, civils, electrical works and automation managed in-house, we can deliver the complete entrance system and continue supporting it through servicing, repairs and ongoing maintenance.

What We Consider When Designing Gates Across Dundee & Angus

The mix of urban, coastal and rural sites across the region means the entrance needs to be designed around the location as much as the equipment itself.

Areas such as Broughty Ferry, Monifieth and parts of the Angus coast include larger homes where security, privacy and appearance are often equally important.

We can design the gate, automation, intercom, pedestrian access and lighting as one coordinated system so the entrance feels like part of the property rather than an added security feature.

Dundee has a strong education and institutional presence, with schools, campuses and other managed sites often needing controlled access for staff, visitors and service vehicles.

Vehicle flow, safeguarding, pedestrian movement, access permissions and long-term maintenance all need to be considered carefully when planning these systems.

Commercial and industrial areas around Dundee, Arbroath, Forfar and Montrose can require more robust entrance systems designed around regular vehicle movements, deliveries and staff access.

Opening width, duty cycle, traffic management, access control and ongoing maintenance can all influence the choice of gate, barrier or wider perimeter-security system.

Across Angus, larger rural properties and working sites may have wider entrances, longer driveways and more challenging ground conditions.

Gate positioning, visibility, drainage, vehicle size, access control and the reliability of the automation all need to be considered as part of the overall entrance design.

What Our Clients Say

Here on top of the hill the weather can be a bit tricky, that said our gates, installed and maintained by CM Gates & Barriers cope really well!

Philip Cox

I wouldn’t consider trying elsewhere!

Top marks. Having tried multiple local options for our electric gates which despite this had ongoing problems for years, with multiple call outs & frequent malfunctions…lots of money spent but no one seemed to know how to fix them or what was causing the problems.

However, one visit from CM Gates & Barriers and the problem was sorted completely…totally worth the initial call out fee. Since then I wouldn’t consider trying anywhere else if required. I try to have them visit for an annual maintenance visit now to keep my gates in tip top condition. If you’re having problems with your electric gates, these are the guys to fix them. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend.

Nic

Highly professional and superb customer services! 

We were not able to be there when the job was done and when we came home the job was completed and they then phoned to tell us what they had done and answered the questions we had and many months later no challenges .

Alexander Quinn

I have used the services of CM for 4 years now and have always found them to be very knowledgeable and helpful when attending.

They didn’t make or fit the gates originally but the company which did were very poor at the after service and totally unreliable.

I am so glad that I found CM and they have during the time have suggested and implemented changes to better the operation of the gates while they are prompt and organised when calling them out.

Brown Ferguson

Many thanks to Calum for the work done today to get the Bedlormie gate up and running. Its good to know that ‘small customers’ are still much appreciated!

M Thompson

We’re over the moon with the gate. It’s fantastic!

G Lindsay

I wish we had found CM Gates sooner!

CM Gates are very helpful, professional, knowledgeable and all-round very good at what they do. I would highly recommend them.

We have had bad luck in the past finding a reliable company to install, fix and service our electric main and pedestrian gates and so are very pleased to have found CM. We are now on their annual maintenance contract which gives great peace of mind. I wish we had found them sooner.

Alexandra Orr

I would highly recommend this company.

Craig himself installed our gate some years ago, and terrible weather on the day didn’t deter him from finishing the job and making sure everything was working perfectly before he left. The whole team at CM gates are professional, friendly and very responsive if any issues arise.
