Sliding Gates up to 17 Metres —
Among the Largest Fabricated in Ireland.

Wide entrance? Sloped drive? No room for a swing? A Marmion sliding gate secures the full opening with one smooth movement. Cantilever and tracked systems, fabricated to EN1090 EX2 in our Greenore workshop and installed at homes, farms, ports and industrial sites across Louth, Newry, Dublin and Cavan.

Cantilever vs Tracked

Two Systems. One Right Answer for Your Site.

Cantilever sliding gates hang from a counterbalanced beam and never touch the ground — no track to clog with gravel, leaves or ice, which makes them the reliable choice for farms, yards and Irish weather generally.

Tracked sliding gates run on a ground rail and suit very wide or very heavy leaves where a clean concrete threshold exists.

We fabricate both, up to 17 metres in a single span — engineered with proper counterbalance so even the biggest gate moves with one hand or a quiet motor. Automation options here.

Not Just for Industry

Sliding gates are the fastest-growing choice for homes too — perfect for short or sloping driveways where swing leaves won’t work. Hardwood-clad steel frames, modern slatted aluminium, solid privacy panels or traditional bar designs — every gate is drawn in CAD for your exact opening, and laser-cut detailing (like a family nameplate) makes it unmistakably yours.
