Gates in Leitrim
13,589 households live in Leitrim, around Carrick-on-Shannon, Manorhamilton, Drumshanbo and Kinlough and out in the country. One vetted gate installer who covers your county covers the whole county.
73% of homes here are detached, one of the highest shares in Ireland. Most have a proper entrance with room behind it, so a pair of swing gates is the usual job: €1,500–€2,500 manual, €2,500–€3,500 electric.
59% of people in Leitrim live outside any town. Long drives mean the power is often a long way from the entrance: running it costs €200–€600, and the cable should go in a duct while the piers are built.
Planning in Leitrim is decided by Leitrim County Council. Gates up to 2 m in an existing entrance are usually exempt; a new or wider entrance onto the road needs permission.
