In order to prevent the noise that is normally associated with security gates, Medway Galvanising has launched a hydraulically operated automatic gate closer that can be fitted to new gates, or retro-fitted to existing ones. Fitting between the gate leaf and hinge post, the unit is supplied with a tough galvanised finish that can be powder coated.

Both corrosion protection and a powder coat finish has been provided by Medway Galvanising for balcony sections on a new river front development in Battersea. The contract was awarded to the company for its ability to deliver galvanising and a powder coat finish, eliminating the need for multiple suppliers. This provided the project with less damage from handling and transportation as well as a quicker turn around too. The balcony and terrace balustrades are designed by the project architects and fabricated in sections before being sent to the company for an 85 micron coat of zinc and 60 micron coating of cured powder in light grey. They are then assembled by a team of skilled site erectors.
