AES are excellent. After doing months of research I am delighted we chose AES to install our new gate. Our gate looks better than we ever imagined. Gordon was very professional, efficient and knowledgable. He provided samples and gave good advice regarding materials, design and safety and our gate was installed quickly and expertly. I can highly recommend AES.

Frequently Asked Questions About Aluminium Gates
1. Are aluminium gates worth the investment?
For many homeowners and businesses, yes. Aluminium gates are popular because they combine long-term durability with minimal maintenance requirements. Unlike traditional timber gates, they will not rot, warp, shrink or crack, helping to reduce ongoing maintenance and repair costs. Their modern appearance, long lifespan and low upkeep make them a worthwhile investment for many properties.
2. How long do aluminium gates last?
High-quality aluminium gates are designed to provide decades of reliable service. Aluminium is naturally resistant to corrosion and is not affected by many of the issues that can shorten the lifespan of timber gates. When professionally installed and properly maintained, aluminium gates can retain both their appearance and performance for many years.
3. Are aluminium gates suitable for Scotland's climate?
Yes. Aluminium gates are particularly well suited to Scotland’s climate. Unlike timber, aluminium is not affected by moisture in the same way and will not rot, warp, expand or crack during periods of wet or changing weather. This makes aluminium an excellent choice for properties throughout Edinburgh, Fife and across Scotland.
4. What is the difference between full aluminium gates and aluminium-clad gates?
Aluminium gates can be manufactured using different construction methods. Full aluminium gates are manufactured entirely from aluminium, whilst aluminium-clad gates typically combine aluminium infill panels with a separate steel frame structure.
Both options can provide an attractive and durable entrance solution. Premium full aluminium gates have become increasingly popular due to their lightweight construction, excellent corrosion resistance and minimal maintenance requirements, whilst aluminium-clad gates can offer additional design flexibility for certain applications.
Our experienced team can advise on the most suitable aluminium gate solution for your property, design preferences and budget.
5. Can aluminium gates be supplied in different colours and finishes?
Yes. Aluminium gates are available in a wide range of colours, styles and finishes. They can be powder coated in virtually any RAL colour and are also available in realistic wood-effect finishes that replicate the appearance of timber. This allows aluminium gates to be tailored to complement both contemporary and traditional properties.
6. Why choose a bespoke aluminium field or estate gate?
An aluminium field or estate gate offers a contemporary take on the traditional rural gate, combining classic five-bar and estate styling with the strength and reliability of modern materials. Suitable for country estates, equestrian properties, farms, and rural homes, aluminium provides a long-lasting entrance solution with minimal maintenance.
Each gate is made to order, with proportions, detailing, and finish tailored to suit your property and its setting. Whether for a simple field entrance or a more formal estate approach, the result is a gate that feels neat, well-proportioned, and appropriate to its surroundings.
For added convenience and security, gates can be integrated with automation, video intercom systems, keypad entry, smartphone control, and remote access technology, giving you secure, controlled access with ease of operation.
Lightweight yet strong, aluminium is particularly well suited to automated systems, offering smooth, reliable performance over time.
With a clean finish and understated appearance, aluminium field and estate gates are chosen by those who want a practical, low-maintenance entrance that still retains a traditional rural character.
7. Do I need to arrange separate contractors for the groundworks?
No. AES Scotland can provide a complete turnkey installation service, including all necessary groundworks. Our team can undertake excavation works, cast concrete foundations and motor pads, install sliding gate tracks, carry out cable trenching and prepare power supplies where required. Managing the entire project in-house helps ensure a smoother installation process, clear communication and a gate system that is built to perform reliably for years to come.
