This Corten steel garden gate is designed for homeowners seeking a durable, low-maintenance, and aesthetically unique entryway for their garden or patio. Its primary benefit is the self-protecting, rust-developed finish that eliminates the need for painting and ensures longevity. A caveat to consider is that the gate arrives in a standard metal color and requires time or specific treatment to develop its signature rusty patina.

Corten steel requires exposure to atmospheric conditions to develop rust. You can accelerate the process by spraying the gate with a mixture of salt water and soap. Ensure it is exposed to the elements.
Ensure all four mounting holes on the gate post base are securely fixed into the ground. Use appropriate anchors or fixings for your ground type. Check that the gate panel is correctly attached to the posts.

Check for any obstructions or ground movement. Ensure the gate is properly aligned and the hinges are not binding. Minor adjustments to the gate's position or the ground anchor may be needed.
Setup: This garden gate requires assembly. Ensure you have the necessary tools before starting. The gate post features four mounting holes at its base, designed to be fixed securely into the ground for stability. Ensure the chosen location is level and suitable for anchoring.
Compatibility: The gate is designed to fit openings with an adjustable width of 104-106 cm. It's compatible with most standard fence lines where this width can be accommodated. The post tubes measure 6 x 4 cm (W x D).
Care: Corten steel is designed to be low-maintenance. No painting or sealing is required. Over time, it will develop a protective, rustic layer. To maintain its appearance and prevent potential staining during the initial rusting phase, avoid prolonged contact with the developing rust. If you wish to speed up the rusting process, you can apply a salt water and soap mixture. Periodically check that the mounting is secure.
