Product Information

Full details

The Hampton Low Single Garden Gate in Blue is designed for homeowners seeking to enhance their garden's aesthetic appeal and security. Its key benefit lies in the robust construction combining Scandinavian Redwood with steel infill bars for durability and a distinguished look. A primary consideration is that the gate is often made to order, with potential lead times of up to 28 working days, and requires a final finishing coat for full protection.

FAQs

What type of wood is used for this gate?

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

Is the gate ready to be installed immediately after delivery?

The gate is treated with a general-purpose preserver, but it requires a final coat of exterior paint or sealant to be applied after fitting for full protection and desired aesthetics. The steel infill bars are primed and also require painting.

What are the dimensions of the gate?

The gate measures approximately 750mm Wide (29.5") x 1200mm High (47"). However, please note that all timber gate sizes are subject to slight variations due to normal shrinkage/expansion.

How long will it take to receive the gate?

The gate is often made to order and can take up to 28 working days to be ready for dispatch due to potential lead times.

What maintenance is required?

Periodically inspect the gate for wear and tear. Reapply a protective finish (paint, stain, or sealant) every 1-3 years to ensure longevity and protection against weather.

Are there other color options available?

Yes, other color options may be available in the Hampton range, such as Black and Brown variants.

Can I get a custom size?

Yes, a made-to-measure service is available for the Hampton Range, though this may also affect the lead time.

Does the gate come with hardware?

The gate itself is supplied without hardware. You will need to purchase compatible hinges and latches separately.

Troubleshooting

Gate is difficult to open or close

Check that gate posts are plumb and secure. Ensure hinges are correctly aligned and lubricated. Verify that the gate is not rubbing against the ground or posts due to wood movement; minor adjustments may be needed.

Wood appears to be deteriorating or showing signs of decay

The initial preserver is a general-purpose treatment. Periodically inspect the gate, especially at the base, and reapply a suitable exterior wood finish. Ensure the gate is not in constant contact with standing water.

Steel infill bars are rusting

The steel bars are primed and require a top coat of paint for protection. If rust appears, clean the affected area thoroughly, apply a rust-inhibiting primer, and then top coat with exterior paint.

Gate sizes vary slightly from advertised dimensions

This is normal due to natural timber shrinkage and expansion. Ensure this variation is accounted for during installation planning. If the variation is significant, contact customer support.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

  1. Post Installation: Ensure sturdy gate posts are securely installed in the ground, allowing for the gate's weight and use.
  2. Hardware: Select appropriate hinges and latches compatible with the gate's dimensions and weight. The steel infill bars are primed and ready for your chosen hardware.
  3. Hanging: Carefully attach the gate to the posts using the chosen hardware. Adjust hinges as needed for smooth operation.
  4. Final Finish: Apply a final coat of exterior-grade paint, stain, or sealant to the entire gate, paying close attention to cut ends and the top/bottom edges for maximum protection.

Compatibility:

  • Gate Posts: Compatible with standard gate posts; ensure they are robust enough for a 70x70mm frame.
  • Hardware: Suitable for most standard gate hardware, but confirm weight and size compatibility.
  • Environment: Designed for outdoor use, but performance is optimized with proper finishing and maintenance.

Care:

  • Regular Cleaning: Wipe down with a damp cloth as needed to remove dirt and debris.
  • Inspection: Periodically inspect the gate for signs of wear, damage, or potential rot, especially at ground level.
  • Re-treatment: Reapply a protective finish (paint, stain, or sealant) every 1-3 years, or as needed, depending on exposure to weather and usage.
  • Wood Movement: Be aware that timber can expand or contract slightly with changes in humidity and temperature.
