Custom fencing & gates

Custom Fencing & Gates

Custom fencing and gates should suit the opening, the property and the way the space is used every day. Schmick Fencing designs and installs slat, tubular and security fencing along with pedestrian, swing and sliding gates across the Redcliffe Peninsula and surrounds, Moreton Bay and Brisbane's outer northern suburbs.

Security fencing

Security without an enclosed feel

Custom steel security fencing creates a strong, visible boundary for front yards, side access and other areas where controlled access matters.

Panel height, post spacing, spear-top details and matching gates can be planned together during the site inspection.

Slat & tubular

Custom fencing details

Slat screens, breezeway infills and tubular panels can solve openings that need a more tailored finish than standard boundary fencing.

We can coordinate panels, posts, gates and adjacent fence materials so the complete line reads as one considered installation.

Access

Gates shaped around access

The right configuration begins with how the opening is used. A narrow side path has different requirements from a driveway, pool access point or wide equipment entrance.

Options can include single pedestrian gates, double swing gates, sliding driveway gates, matching timber or Colourbond gates, custom steel or aluminium gates and gate-and-fence combinations planned as one project.

Finish

Matched finishes

A gate should not look like it was added after the fence was built. Material, post size, top line, infill, colour and hardware all contribute to a coordinated result.

Schmick Fencing's project portfolio includes timber double gates, Colourbond side gates, custom aluminium panels, steel security fencing and electric or solar-powered sliding gate projects.

Pedestrian

Side-access gates

A well-planned pedestrian gate supports convenient everyday movement while maintaining the privacy and appearance of the fence line.

We consider clear opening width, latch position, surface levels, post locations and the direction of operation before confirming the configuration.

Driveways

Driveway gates

Vehicle access adds further design considerations: driveway width, slope, turning space, wind exposure, available slide-back room, posts and the way the gate will be operated.

Double gates can suit adequate swing room. Sliding gates may suit openings where the driveway needs to remain clear of swinging leaves.

Custom openings

Custom openings

Existing brick pillars, changing levels or non-standard openings often call for a tailored panel or gate rather than an off-the-shelf size.

If the site is unusual, send wide photos and close-ups of the posts, levels and surrounding structures with your enquiry.

Complete line

Planned together

Gate operation can be affected by a sloping driveway, retaining wall, step, fence return or drainage path.

Because Schmick Fencing works across fencing, gates and retaining solutions, these junctions can be considered together during planning.

Frequently asked questions

Questions customers ask before booking fencing work.

Can you make a gate to match an existing fence?

A matching or complementary gate may be possible depending on the material, condition, post locations and opening.

Do you build pedestrian and driveway gates?

Yes. Our custom gate range can include pedestrian, double and sliding configurations.

Do you offer automatic or solar-powered gates?

Schmick Fencing has publicly shared electric and solar-powered sliding gate projects. Confirm current automation options when requesting a quote.

What determines whether a sliding or swing gate is better?

Opening width, driveway slope, swing clearance, slide-back room, wind exposure, post positions and use frequency all matter.

What measurements should I provide?

Provide the approximate clear opening and any available site details. Photos are optional, and final conditions are confirmed during the site inspection.

Who connects an automatic gate to power?

Any electrical work must be performed under the appropriate Queensland electrical licence.
