Product Information

Full details

This single garden gate is designed for homeowners seeking a durable and aesthetically pleasing entrance solution for their property. Its primary benefit is the robust construction using pressure-treated Scandinavian Redwood, offering protection against decay and fungi. A key consideration is that while pressure-treated, a final finish should still be applied for maximum longevity and desired appearance.

FAQs

What type of wood is the gate made from?

The gate is made from Scandinavian Redwood sourced from European managed forests.

Is the gate pre-finished?

The gate is pressure-treated with a general-purpose preserver, but it requires a final finish (stain, paint, or sealant) to be applied by the user for full protection and desired appearance.

What are the exact dimensions of the gate?

The gate measures 900mm in width and 950mm in height. Please note that timber sizes can have slight variations due to natural shrinkage/expansion.

Does this gate come with hinges and a latch?

No, the gate is supplied without hardware. Hinges and latches need to be purchased separately.

Can I get this gate in a different size?

A made-to-measure service is available, though limited stock is held, and gates are made to order.

How should I maintain the gate?

Clean regularly with a damp cloth and reapply a protective finish every 1-3 years. Check fittings periodically for tightness and wear.

What does 'pressure treated' mean for this gate?

Pressure treatment means the wood has been impregnated with a preserver under pressure, providing protection against decay, mould, and blue-staining fungi.

Troubleshooting

Gate does not hang straight or swings unevenly.

Check if the gate posts are plumb and stable. Adjust the hinges on the gate and post to correct alignment. Ensure no obstructions are preventing free movement.

Wood appears to be cracking or splitting.

This can be natural timber movement. Ensure a protective finish is applied and maintained. Minor cracks usually do not affect structural integrity.

Fittings (hinges, latch) are difficult to install.

Pre-drill pilot holes for screws. Ensure you are using appropriate hardware designed for exterior wooden gates. Consult hardware manufacturer's instructions.

Surface mould or mildew appears.

Clean the affected area with a mild soap and water solution. Ensure adequate ventilation around the gate. Reapply a protective finish if necessary.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Constructed from sustainably sourced Scandinavian Redwood.
  • Pressure treatment provides initial protection against rot and fungal growth.
  • Sturdy frame and tongue and groove design offer good durability.
  • Can be finished to match specific outdoor decor.
  • Made to order service ensures availability for specific needs.

Cons

  • Requires a final finish to be applied by the user.
  • Subject to slight size variations due to natural timber expansion/shrinkage.
  • Limited stock held, potentially leading to longer lead times.
  • Only one specific size is detailed, customisation may be limited to length/height.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure you have appropriate gate posts (sold separately) secured firmly in the ground.
  2. Attach the gate hardware (hinges and latch, sold separately) to the gate and posts according to manufacturer instructions.
  3. Mount the gate, ensuring it swings freely without dragging.
  4. Adjust hinges as necessary for proper alignment and operation.

Compatibility:

  • Designed to be installed with standard gate posts.
  • Hardware for hanging and latching is not included and must be purchased separately. Ensure compatibility with gate weight and size.
  • Can be integrated into existing fence lines or garden borders.

Care:

  1. Initial Finish Application: As the gate is pressure-treated but requires a final finish, apply a high-quality exterior wood stain, sealant, or paint of your choice. Ensure the timber is dry before application.
  2. Regular Cleaning: Wipe down with a damp cloth to remove surface dirt and debris. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
  3. Periodic Inspection: Check hinges and hardware for wear or rust, and tighten any loose fittings.
  4. Reapplication of Finish: Reapply protective finish every 1-3 years, depending on exposure to weather conditions, to maintain protection and appearance.

*Note: Timber gate sizes are subject to slight variation due to normal shrinkage/expansion.*
