Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Gather all necessary fixings (hinges, latches, screws, etc.), which are sold separately.
- Ensure the gate posts are correctly installed and aligned.
- Attach hinges to the gate and the gate post.
- Mount the gate onto the hinges and check for smooth operation.
- Install the latch or locking mechanism.
Compatibility:
This gate is designed to be compatible with other Forest Garden Vertical Tongue & Groove fencing panels. It can also be used as a stand-alone gate.
Care:
- The timber is pressure-treated for longevity, but occasional cleaning may be needed.
- Clean the gate with a mild soap and water solution.
- Inspect the gate annually for any signs of wear or damage.
- Re-treat the timber with a suitable wood treatment if desired, to maintain its appearance over time. This is not essential due to the pressure treatment but may be desired.
