Custom Double Swing Driveway Gates

Two leaves meeting in the middle is the classic estate entrance, and the practical choice for any swing opening past 12 feet. Each leaf carries half the width, so hinges, posts and operators all work less.

How it works

Two leaves hang from posts on either side and meet at a centre stop or drop rod. Each leaf is half the opening, so the hinge load and swing arc are halved.

Openings 6′–40′ · heights 3′–10
Each leaf needs an arc equal to half the opening on the swing side.

Best for

  • Driveway openings 10′–40′
  • Estate and formal entrances
  • Sites with room to swing but no room for a cantilever tail

Trade-offs

  • Two sets of hinges and two operators when automated
  • A centre drop rod or stop is required
  • Both arcs must stay clear

Questions we get about custom double swing driveway gates

Do double gates need a centre stop?
Yes. A drop rod or centre stop holds the first leaf so the second can latch against it, and it is what an automated pair closes onto. We include it on every double gate.
How is a double gate automated?
One swing operator per leaf, interconnected so they move together (a master/slave pair). The welded aluminum line uses the Viking R6 dual package; fabricated steel gates are sized for an operator on review.
Do you install custom gates near me?
We professionally install in the Wilmington NC area and in Zebulon and the surrounding Raleigh / Triangle region. Outside our install area we deliver the finished gate for your own installer, or hold it for branch pickup.
