FAQs

What material is the gate made from?

The gate is constructed from Scandinavian Redwood sourced from European-managed forests.

Is the gate pre-finished?

No, the gate is pressure-treated with a general-purpose preserver but requires a final finish (like stain or paint) to be applied by the end-user after fitting for full protection and aesthetic enhancement.

What are the exact dimensions of the gate?

The gate's actual width is 750mm and its height is 1800mm. Please note that timber gate sizes are subject to slight variations due to normal shrinkage or expansion.

Do I need to buy hinges and latches separately?

Yes, fitting sets, including hinges and latches, are sold separately. You can choose between coated black or galvanised options.

How long will the gate last?

With proper care, including periodic re-treatment and application of a protective finish, the gate is designed for long life. However, longevity depends on environmental factors and usage.

Is a made-to-measure service available?

Yes, a made-to-measure service is available for the Drayton Range, though stock is limited and it may be made to order.

What does 'pressure treated' mean for this gate?

Pressure treatment involves impregnating the timber with a preservative solution that offers protection against decay, mould, and blue-staining fungi. It's a foundational level of protection.

Troubleshooting

Gate warping or twisting

Ensure the gate is properly hung with adequate support. Apply a consistent finish to all sides of the timber to regulate moisture absorption. If severe, contact customer support.

Wood showing signs of decay or mould

Inspect the gate for any existing damage. Reapply a suitable wood preserver and finish. Ensure good air circulation around the gate and ground contact is minimized.

Fitting issues or sagging

Check that the gate posts are securely installed and plumb. Adjust the hinges or hanging mechanism as per hardware instructions. Ensure the correct size and type of hardware are used.

Gate doesn't fit the opening exactly

Small variations are normal due to timber's natural properties. Minor adjustments may be possible with hinges or posts. For significant discrepancies, consider the made-to-measure service for future purchases.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Constructed from sustainably sourced Scandinavian Redwood.
  • Tongue and groove boarding provides a robust and private barrier.
  • Pressure treatment offers initial protection against rot and decay.
  • Traditional design enhances garden aesthetics.
  • Made-to-measure service available for custom fits.

Cons

  • Requires a final finishing coat after installation.
  • Needs periodic re-treatment to maintain longevity.
  • Hardware (fitting sets) must be purchased separately.
  • Timber sizes may vary slightly due to natural expansion/shrinkage.
  • Limited stock held; often made to order with potential lead times.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The gate is designed for standard installations. Ensure you have appropriate gate posts (sold separately) and a level ground surface. The gate itself measures 750mm wide; ensure your opening accommodates this width plus any necessary hardware for hanging.

Compatibility: This gate is compatible with various fitting sets, which are sold separately. Options for coated black or galvanised fittings are available to match your desired aesthetic and corrosion resistance needs.

Care: Upon receiving the gate, it is recommended to apply a final finishing coat of exterior-grade wood protection, such as a wood stain, sealant, or paint, to further protect the timber and enhance its appearance. Periodically inspect the gate for signs of wear, damage, or the need for re-treatment. Reapply protective finishes as needed, considering environmental factors and usage. While pressure-treated, wood is a natural material and requires ongoing maintenance for maximum lifespan. Note that timber gate sizes are subject to slight variations due to natural shrinkage or expansion.
