The gate itself is supplied. Hinges, latches, handles, and posts are typically sold separately and must be purchased in addition to the gate.
No, the gate is pressure treated for basic protection but requires a final finish (stain, paint, or sealant) to be applied by the customer for full weather protection and desired aesthetics.
Yes, a made-to-measure service is available. Please contact the manufacturer or retailer for details and ordering.
The frequency depends on the type of finish used and environmental exposure. Typically, annual reapplication or as recommended by the finish manufacturer is advised.
With proper maintenance, including regular reapplication of a protective finish, a pressure-treated timber gate like this can last many years. Factors like climate and exposure will influence its lifespan.
Pressure treatment forces a wood preservative deep into the timber, providing protection against decay, fungi, and insect attack. It's a crucial first step in protecting the wood.
The standard dimensions are 1050mm wide by 950mm high.
Check that gate posts are plumb and stable. Adjust hinges if they have shifted. Ensure no obstructions are present in the gate's path. Minor wood expansion/shrinkage might require slight adjustments.
This is natural for timber. Apply a new coat of wood stain, oil, or paint to provide even protection and restore appearance. Ensure the gate is clean and dry before application.
Clean the affected area with a suitable wood cleaner. Ensure the gate is drying thoroughly, and consider applying a more robust preservative or topcoat if the problem persists.
Setup: Installation requires appropriate gate hardware (hinges, latch, posts), which are not included. Ensure posts are securely set in the ground, considering appropriate spacing for the 1050mm gate width. Adjust hinges for correct alignment and smooth operation.
Compatibility: This gate is designed for standard garden openings. It can be fitted between existing walls, brick pillars, or dedicated gate posts. For made-to-measure requirements, contact the manufacturer.
Care: The gate arrives pressure treated, offering protection against decay. However, to maintain its appearance and extend its lifespan, a final finish such as a wood stain, oil, or paint should be applied. Reapply this finish periodically, typically annually or as recommended by the finish manufacturer, especially after periods of heavy rain or strong sunlight. Clean the gate with a damp cloth and mild detergent if necessary, avoiding harsh chemicals.
