Choosing Between Swing And Sliding Gates
A gate is the finishing touch to your new fence. When completing this outdoor renovation, homeowners are faced with the choice of a swing gate or a sliding gate. Each of these different gates types in Adelaide has its own advantages in certain situations.
Obviously sometimes the location on your property and purpose of the gate will determine the most logical style. For example, according to Australian law, pool gates must outward-opening swing gates of a certain height, fitted with child-safety devices and automatic closing. These regulations are in place for a reason, and heavy fines can apply if they are ignored. They are also some good general rules to follow for any instance in which child safety is a primary concern. Safety gates at the top and bottom of the stairs will obviously be swing gates, but you can apply the same features of outward-opening and automatic closing to enhance safety.
It is more driveway gates and front gates that can be either swing or slide design. Money will be a deciding factor, as you have most likely just spent a considerable sum on the purchase and installation of fencing. Swing gates are often more cost-effective as they do not require any special foundation. Sliding gates usually need a concrete base along which the tracks can run. The laying of this base obviously adds to the labour costs, as well as dragging out the expected completion time of the project.
Protection is clearly an important factor. A fence and gate is the first layer of security protecting your property. It is the first opportunity that you have to intimidate any potential burglar. By contrast, if an intruder is able to easily hop or otherwise defeat your fence, then it may give them the burst of confidence to tackle the rest of the house. Now most people are not going to want to have a two metre tall fence surrounding their property. It makes it feel more like a prison than a home, and not to mention disrupts the view. Therefore, you have to find other ways to prevent fencing hopping. A solid fence and gate with no foot holds is an obvious choice, but not necessarily the most aesthetically pleasing or cost effective. A tubular fence and gate with only vertical bars will help your cause. These designs often come with spear heads which are decorative but also function as an intimidating security tactic.
Also on the security front, swing gates can be both a help and a hindrance. If they can open outwards then this can dramatically reduce the risk of forced entry. Burglars will have a very hard time smashing through a gate that functions in this way. Of course, for edge of the property gates, often the footpath is out of bounds for gates and is considered public property. Inward swinging gates can actually make it that much easier for people to break in. All it takes is a decent strike for the hinge to work against you. If outward swinging gates is not an option, you may like to consider a sliding design. Not as much force can be exerted in a sideways motion, and they are near impossible to break down with brute force.
If you live in a particularly windy area, perhaps by the coast, then this could potentially affect your decision. Wind that is constantly blowing in one direction can add significant weight onto the hinges of a swing gate. In these circumstances, sliding gates could be a wise choice for an increased lifespan.

Poor pool fencing blamed for the death of a toddler
Welcome to Fencing World - Adelaide Fencing specialist
The importance of pool safety has been thrust back into public attention this month after a New South Wales man was charged with manslaughter, following the drowning of a toddler in his pool earlier this year.
It is the first time in Australia a person has been charged with manslaughter for having inadequate pool fencing and has opened up a whole new can of worms.
While debate has raged about whether people should have to fence their pools to keep neighbouring children out, the case has set a legal precedence that all pool owners have the legal responsibility to do so.
If your pool in the eastern suburbs does not comply with adequate fencing standards, then it's time to upgrade.
