Sliding cantilever gates are a premium access control solution designed for properties where ground tracks are impractical or undesirable. In North York, where driveways often experience heavy use, winter conditions, and limited space, cantilever gates provide smooth, reliable operation without relying on ground rails that can clog with snow or debris. These gates slide effortlessly while remaining fully elevated, making them ideal for both residential and commercial properties.
Art Metal Workshop designs, fabricates, and installs fully custom sliding cantilever gate systems for North York properties. Each gate is engineered in-house to meet structural and safety requirements, built using heavy-duty steel or aluminum, and finished for long-term outdoor durability. Backed by our lifetime warranty, our cantilever gates deliver dependable performance, enhanced security, and a refined architectural presence.
Whether you need a secure residential driveway gate or a high-cycle commercial access solution, Art Metal provides precision-built cantilever gates tailored to your property layout and usage needs.

A cantilever sliding gate is supported by rollers mounted on one side and does not require a ground track, allowing it to slide smoothly above the surface.
Yes. Because there is no ground track, cantilever gates are ideal for areas with snow and ice, reducing maintenance and operational issues.
Absolutely. Cantilever gates are commonly paired with automation systems for convenient and secure access control.
Gate width depends on design and structural requirements, but cantilever systems can accommodate very wide openings when properly engineered.
Most sliding cantilever gate installations are completed within a few days, depending on gate size, automation, and site conditions.
