Garden & Driveway Gates in Bordon

A garden gate needs enough clearance for daily use without unnecessary gaps around the frame. We measure the opening, discuss the direction of swing and check the ground before deciding the width and height.

Timber boards can be matched to closeboard, feather edge or panel fencing. Side access, driveway and field openings each need a different balance of privacy, weight and ease of use.

A gate moves and loads its supports every time it is opened. Posts are sized and set for that weight, with hinges and latches suited to the opening rather than relying on the nearest fence post.

Wider driveway and field gates need heavier supports and ironmongery. Drop bolts, slam plates and lockable latches are available where they suit the gate and its use.

Dragging, sticking or failure to latch does not always mean the gate needs replacing. We inspect post movement, frame alignment, hinges and ground clearance before suggesting repairs.

Re-hanging, replacement ironmongery or re-setting a post may restore the opening. If the timber has deteriorated beyond repair, we quote for a replacement gate sized to the existing access.
