-Your right to put up or alter fences, walls and gates is removed by an article 4 direction or a planning condition; or

Double swing gates consist of two leafs that open and close.Is sliding gate better than swing gate?
Swing gates are the most common type of gate used for domestic properties. Bi-Parting swing gates take up less driveway space than a single gate and are recommended for driveways that are less than 4.5m wide. Typically, swing gates open inwards towards the property but if the driveway slopes or curves sharply, you need to consider other models. If both a swing or a sliding gate are feasible, a swing gate is generally recommended as they are prettier and less expensive than sliding gates.
