FAQs

What is the primary material of this gate?

The gate is crafted from Pressure Treated Scandinavian Redwood.

Does the gate come with posts or hardware?

No, the gate is supplied without posts or hanging hardware, which must be purchased separately.

What is the purpose of the black steel infill panel?

The steel infill panel provides a striking visual contrast, enhances durability, and adds security to the gate.

Is the preserver a guarantee against decay?

No, the preserver offers protection but is not a 100% decay guarantee. Periodic inspection and re-treatment are the end user's responsibility.

Can I paint or stain the gate?

Yes, it is recommended to apply a final finish like paint or stain after fitting to further protect the timber and achieve your desired aesthetic.

What are the exact dimensions of the gate?

The gate measures W900 x H1200 mm (width x height).

How often should I re-treat the timber?

Re-treatment frequency depends on environmental factors, but generally, reapplying protective finishes every 1-3 years is advisable for optimal longevity.

Troubleshooting

Gate is sticking or difficult to open/close

Check for ground obstructions, ensure posts are plumb, and verify hinge alignment. Wood may expand or contract; slight adjustments may be needed. Ensure a consistent finish has been applied.

Visible signs of decay or mould

Clean affected area with a mild solution and allow to dry thoroughly. Reapply the preserver and a protective topcoat. Increase frequency of inspections and re-treatment.

Steel infill panel appears discolored

The powder coating is designed for durability. If minor surface rust appears, it can typically be cleaned with a non-abrasive metal cleaner. Ensure water does not pool on the panel.

Gate sags or appears unstable

Ensure gate posts are firmly set. Check that bracing is secure and hinges are correctly fitted and tightened. Consider adding additional support if needed.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure gate posts are securely installed and plumb.
  2. Mount the gate using appropriate heavy-duty hinges, allowing for a slight gap around the gate for expansion and contraction.
  3. Install a suitable latch or lock mechanism.
  4. Apply a final coat of exterior-grade paint, stain, or sealant to all surfaces, paying close attention to cut ends and edges. Allow the finish to dry completely before use.

Compatibility:

  • This gate is designed to be hung from posts (not included) or existing sturdy structures.
  • Requires compatible hardware such as hinges and latches, typically available separately.

Care:

  • Periodically inspect the gate for signs of wear, rot, or insect damage.
  • Clean the gate surface with a damp cloth as needed. Avoid harsh abrasive cleaners.
  • Reapply protective finishes every 1-3 years, depending on exposure and climate, to maintain the timber's integrity and appearance.
  • Ensure drainage is adequate around the base of the gate posts to prevent waterlogging.
