FAQs

What materials are used in the Croft Prestige Field Gate?

The gate is crafted from high-precision engineered timber, selected for its durability. It features stainless steel fixings to prevent rust and stains.

Is the timber sustainably sourced?

Does the gate come with hinges and a latch?

No, fixing packs containing hinges, latches, and other necessary hardware are available as a separate product.

What is the warranty period for this gate?

The gate comes with a 15-year anti-rot guarantee, providing long-term protection against rot.

Can I get this gate in different sizes?

Yes, the Croft Prestige Gate is available in various sizes, ranging from 3ft to 8ft, to suit different entrance requirements.

How should I care for the wooden gate?

Regular cleaning with a damp cloth is recommended. For added protection and to maintain appearance, apply a suitable outdoor wood treatment annually.

What is the difference between planed premium and rough sawn finishes?

The planed premium finish offers a smooth, refined surface, while the rough sawn finish provides a more rustic, natural texture.

Troubleshooting

Gate does not hang straight

Ensure gate posts are plumb and securely set. Check that hinges are correctly aligned and tightened. Adjustments may be needed if posts have shifted.

Hinges are stiff or squeaking

Lubricate hinges with a suitable outdoor-grade lubricant. Ensure there are no obstructions or debris causing friction.

Wood appears weathered or faded

Apply a wood treatment or stain suitable for outdoor timber to restore colour and provide protection. Regular maintenance is key.

Rust marks appearing on fixings

Ensure all fixings are indeed stainless steel. If non-stainless fixings were used, they may need replacement. Clean affected areas with a rust remover suitable for timber.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: Installation of the Forest Garden Croft Prestige Field Gate requires a sturdy frame or posts capable of supporting its weight. Ensure posts are set securely in the ground, ideally concreted, to provide adequate support. The gate is designed for use with specific hinge and latch systems; consider purchasing the compatible fixing packs separately for a seamless installation. Always ensure the gate swings freely without obstruction.

Compatibility: This gate is designed to be compatible with a range of Forest Garden's own fixing hardware, particularly the Croft Prestige range. It is suitable for standard gate posts and can be hung on either the left or right side depending on your mounting hardware.

Care: To maintain the longevity and appearance of the timber, regular cleaning with a damp cloth is recommended. Avoid harsh chemicals. For enhanced protection against the elements and to preserve the wood's natural beauty, consider applying a suitable wood treatment or preservative annually, especially to exposed end grains. Check fixings periodically to ensure they remain tight.
