What is the typical lead time for this gate?

Gates are usually made to order with a lead time of up to 28 working days due to limited stock.

Will the size of the gate change over time?

How should I care for the gate?

Troubleshooting

Gate does not hang straight or is difficult to open/close.

Check that the gate posts are plumb and securely set. Adjust hinges if necessary to ensure proper alignment. Ensure no obstructions are present.

Wood appears to be degrading or showing signs of rot.

Inspect the areas with rot. If minor, clean the area and reapply a wood preserver. If significant, consider replacing the affected section or the entire gate. Ensure proper drainage around the base.

Gate finish is fading or looks weathered.

Clean the gate thoroughly and reapply a compatible wood stain or preserver following the product's instructions. This can typically be done annually or as needed.

Hinges or latch are stiff or rusted.

Clean the hardware thoroughly with a wire brush if necessary. Lubricate with a suitable lubricant (e.g., WD-40 or a silicone-based spray). Replace hardware if significantly corroded.
