Product Information

Full details

The Saxon Spear Top Tall Bow Top Single Gate is ideal for homeowners seeking a balance between classic aesthetic appeal and sturdy property security. Constructed from solid steel, it provides a formidable barrier for garden entrances or side pathways while maintaining a traditional visual profile. Its primary benefit lies in the dual-layer protection of electro-galvanization and powder coating, ensuring long-term resistance against rust and environmental damage. One notable caveat is that the 1220mm measurement refers specifically to the intended installation gap, meaning the gate itself is built slightly smaller to account for the necessary clearance for hinges and latches, requiring careful pre-installation measurements.

FAQs

Does the gate width include the hinges?

Yes, the 1220mm opening size is the total width required including the hinges and latch, so the gate frame itself is slightly smaller.

Can this gate be trimmed to fit a smaller gap?

No, altering the width will compromise the structural integrity and the protective powder coating of the steel frame.

Is the gate suitable for high-wind areas?

Due to its sturdy solid steel construction, it performs well, but you must ensure your gate posts are deeply and securely anchored.

How often should I paint the gate?

With the electro-galvanized coating, routine repainting is not required, but you should touch up any scratches immediately if they occur.

What tools are needed for installation?

You will need a drill, masonry bits for your pillars, a spirit level, a socket set for the hinges, and a tape measure.

Troubleshooting

Gate dragging on the ground

Adjust the tension on the adjustable hinges or check if the mounting post has shifted due to ground movement.

Latch does not align correctly

Ensure the posts are perfectly vertical (plumb) using a spirit level and adjust the hinge settings to fine-tune the horizontal position.

Visible rust spots appearing

Lightly sand the area, clean with a degreaser, and apply a high-quality exterior black metal touch-up paint.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-quality, heavy-duty solid steel build
  • Dual-stage finish provides excellent rust protection
  • Classic ornamental spear-top design enhances curb appeal
  • Supplied with essential mounting hardware for easier setup

Cons

  • Requires professional installation for optimal alignment
  • Powder coating can chip if struck by heavy objects
  • Specific 1220mm opening requirement leaves little room for adjustment
  • Heavy weight requires sturdy, well-anchored gate posts

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation requires a level 1220mm opening. Before starting, ensure your gate posts are securely installed and capable of supporting the steel gate's weight. The gate is intentionally manufactured slightly smaller than the 1220mm gap to accommodate the hinges and latch hardware. For care, keep the latch mechanism lubricated with a silicone-based spray to prevent stiffness. Periodically check for any paint scratches; if found, touch them up immediately with a black metal paint to prevent oxidation of the underlying steel. Avoid using abrasive cleaners on the powder-coated surface, as these can strip the protective layer and lead to premature rust.
