Choosing Your Posts:

• 3" x 2" -Pine. Ideal if you want to bolt these into a wall/pillar as they match the gate beautifully. If you select a wax treatment the posts will be waxed to match.
• 3"x 3" and 4" x 4" 8ft green softwood tanalised posts are designed to be concreted into the ground. The tanalised treatment ensures a 10 year ground contact protection. Good solid posts which can be painted.
• 70mm x 70mm black metal posts are finished in black.

Our Hinges:

The tee hinges we offer are heavy duty hinges. Chosen as they hold our gates perfectly and with ease unlike cheaper versions which will require replacing alot sooner. Each tee hinge kit comes with the following

• 2 x 18" Tee Hinges
• 1 x Brenton Bolt
• 1 x Ring latch and keep
• Screws and fixings

Stain and Treatment:

Each gate is stained by hand individually and 2 coats are applied. It is always advised to re-coat the gate after 28 days of it being fitted and the gate has climatised, then again at 6 months then annually thereafter.

Calculating the actual width required of a wooden driveway gate is easy...just follow these simple steps below.

1. Take three measurements between existing pillars or posts.
2. Reduce the LOWEST size by 40mm (or approx 1.5")
3. That's it! The size left after the reduction is the gate width required. Online, we offer gate width's to the nearest inch, simply select the closest size (lower) from the drop down menu - or call to order for an exact width.

Please note: If no pillars or posts on there, measure the opening and reduce by 2 x posts. Gates up to 10ft wide should use 100mm x 100mm (4" x 4") posts, over 10ft use 150mm x 150mm (6" x 6") posts.

For above ground automation, hung in the centre of the posts take the smallest measurement and reduce by 150mm (this will give you the actual gate size to order).

For below ground automation, rear hung on the back of the posts take the smallest measurement and plus 20mm (this will give you the actual gate size to order).

For below ground automation, rear hung in the centre of the posts take the smallest measurement and reduce by 240mm (this will give you the actual gate size to order).

Please note: Images are used to show the style of gate and have been computer generated. A Sample of wood used in construction is available on request. Width advertised is total width of gate. For example, if you select a width of 9ft, you will receive 2 leafs at 4ft 6". Height is taken to the highest point of gate.
