At Central Gates and Barriers Ltd, we’re proud to be known as trusted gate installation experts in Scotland, offering bespoke solutions for both domestic and commercial properties. Based in Lanarkshire and working across Glasgow, Edinburgh, and beyond, we specialise in the design, manufacture, and installation of high-quality gates and railings built to fit your needs.
With over 20 years of combined experience and an in-house team of skilled fabricators and installers, we’ve built our reputation on reliability, precision, and personal service. Whether you’re upgrading your driveway or securing your business premises, our team is here to deliver strong, stylish solutions you can count on.
A Business Built on Expertise and Experience
Central Gates and Barriers Ltd was founded by Greg Henderson and Ryan Aitken, two experienced tradesmen with a strong background in welding and metal fabrication. Their sister company, Central Welding Services Ltd, has long been known for delivering quality fabrication work throughout Scotland. Over time, it became clear that one area kept coming up again and again — custom gates and barriers for domestic and commercial clients.
Recognising the demand and knowing they had the knowledge, tools, and team to deliver exceptional results, Greg and Ryan launched Central Gates and Barriers Ltd. With their deep industry experience and passion for problem-solving, they quickly built a business trusted for delivering fully bespoke gate solutions with a friendly, no-nonsense approach.
Today, the company has grown into a leading provider of bespoke gates in Scotland, serving homeowners, property developers, business owners, and public sector clients across the country.

Bespoke Gates Scotland – Designed and Built In-House
One of the things that sets us apart is our full in-house service. Unlike companies that outsource manufacturing, we design and build every gate ourselves right here in Lanarkshire. This allows us to guarantee both quality and consistency in every job.
We use only trusted materials and proven techniques to ensure a high standard of durability and finish. Our experienced team works closely with each customer to create made-to-measure gates that not only look great but perform perfectly in the Scottish climate.
