Product Information

Full details

The Balmoral Premium Spear Top Low Double Driveway Gate is designed for homeowners seeking a secure and aesthetically pleasing entrance. Its primary benefit is the robust steel construction paired with a classic spear top design, offering both security and timeless style. A key consideration is that these gates are made to order, requiring lead time for production. This gate features durable electro-galvanised and black powder coating for superior rust resistance, heavy-duty framing, and a design that accounts for necessary fitting gaps.

FAQs

What is the typical lead time for made-to-order gates?

As the Balmoral gates are made to order, lead times can vary. Please check with your retailer for the most current estimated production and delivery schedule.

Are screws included for installation?

No, a fittings pack is included, but screws for mounting the hinges and latch are not provided. You will need to supply these separately.

Can I order gates for a gap size not listed?

The Balmoral range is typically manufactured to standard or specified sizes. For custom dimensions outside of standard offerings, it is best to inquire directly with the manufacturer or a specialized supplier.

How do I maintain the black powder coating?

Regular cleaning with a damp cloth is recommended. Avoid abrasive cleaners. For minor scratches, touch up with appropriate metal paint to prevent rust.

What is the purpose of the electro-galvanised finish?

The electro-galvanised layer provides a primary barrier against rust and corrosion, significantly extending the gate's lifespan, especially in damp or humid environments.

Can the spear tops be painted a different color?

The spear heads are primed black. While they can be repainted, it is advisable to use a high-quality metal primer and exterior paint suitable for galvanized steel for best adhesion and durability.

Troubleshooting

Gates are difficult to close or do not align properly.

Adjust the adjustable hinges. Ensure gate posts are plumb and secure. Check for any obstructions in the closing path.

Rust spots appear on the gate surface.

Clean the rusted area thoroughly. Apply a rust inhibitor, followed by a metal primer and exterior-grade black paint matching the original finish.

Hinges appear to be sagging.

Tighten the hinge fixings and re-adjust the hinges for a level hang. Ensure posts are stable and not leaning.

Fittings pack is missing components.

Contact the manufacturer or retailer with details of the missing components.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure you have measured the exact gap size your gates are designed to fit. The stated width already accounts for hinge and latch gaps.
  2. Attach the included adjustable hinges to the gate stiles and your posts according to the fitting pack instructions.
  3. Hang the gates, utilizing the adjustable hinges to achieve proper alignment and smooth operation.
  4. Install your chosen latch mechanism (not included) and ensure the closing bolt aligns correctly.

Compatibility:

  • Designed to fit specific driveway gap sizes. Please refer to product specifications for dimensions.
  • Requires suitable gate posts capable of supporting the weight and stress of steel gates.

Care:

  • Clean the gates periodically with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. Mild soap can be used if necessary, followed by rinsing.
  • Inspect the surface for any signs of damage to the coating. Touch up any exposed metal promptly with a suitable metal primer and exterior-grade black paint to prevent rust.
  • Periodically check and lubricate moving parts of hinges and latches.
