Sliding Cantilever Gates

Sliding Cantilever Gates Toronto

For more than 20 years, Art Metal Workshop has been Toronto’s top expert in sliding cantilever gates — the ideal solution for properties that need smooth operation, optimal space efficiency, and powerful security. Unlike traditional sliding gates that rely on ground tracks, cantilever gates use an elevated system that glides effortlessly without touching the driveway surface. This makes them perfect for uneven terrain, snow-prone areas, and high-traffic commercial or residential entrances.

Each cantilever gate is custom-designed, engineered, and fabricated in our Etobicoke workshop, using premium steel, aluminum, or wrought iron for long-lasting performance.

Why Choose a Cantilever Sliding Gate?

No Ground Track Required

Cantilever gates “float” above the ground using rollers mounted on a support post system — ideal for gravel, slopes, snow, or surfaces that shift seasonally.

Smooth, Quiet Operation

High-performance rollers and precision balancing enable the gate to glide effortlessly, even for oversized or heavy-duty applications.

Perfect for Residential & Commercial Properties

Cantilever gates offer unmatched reliability and are commonly used for:

  • Homes with sloped or uneven driveways
  • Commercial parking lots
  • Industrial facilities
  • High-security properties
  • Condos & multi-unit buildings

 

Highly Durable Construction

Reinforced steel frames, thick-walled posts, and anti-corrosion finishes ensure your gate withstands daily use, weather, and wear.
