Pete Posted May 2, 2020 Share Posted May 2, 2020 Have done most things but never fitted electric sliding gates. Just trying to decide with how much I still have to do whether to get a company in or have a go myself. I realise I can only claim the gate and not the electric sliding part as it was part of the PP. I will be putting the ducting in for the elec/data cable this week so apart from digging a trench, rebar and concrete there cannot be much to it can there? ( I am to busy to build my own gates @Onoff) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferdinand Posted May 2, 2020 Share Posted May 2, 2020 (edited) I would also talk to a smallish local gate fabricator / fitter as a control. I found a custom one to be quite competitive including fitting. Around here there are a number .. a couple in each town.

Big Jimbo Posted May 2, 2020 Share Posted May 2, 2020 (edited) I want OnOff to come come on please, with a full, detailed drawings etc scheme. Together with costings, and if you ever sell, you will still be able to drive past and say. "See them, I built them."?

I believe @Onoff flies by the seat of his pants for the most part, doesn't work to a budget and pays no attention to costs. Now to to most people that's a non starter but as he takes so long complete anything costs are spread and don't particularly impact. Sketches are done on CAD but repeatability is an issue as he forgets what he called the drawing and/or where he filed it. Somehow it generally works out alright! ? 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
