WOODEN GATES IN WICKFORD
Timber Gates for Your Garden
Wooden garden gates provide a natural, traditional access point for residential gardens. Whether for side access, a garden entrance or integration with a fence line, a timber gate gives privacy, security and a look that matches timber fencing.
We supply and fit wooden garden gates in pressure-treated timber, with suitable hinges, latches and posts. The gate is selected or built to suit the opening width, and the posts are set in concrete so the gate hangs properly and does not sag.
On a free site visit we measure the opening, talk through the options — gate design, width, hinge and latch choices — and provide a clear written quotation.
TIMBER GATES EXPLAINED
What Are Wooden Garden Gates?
Wooden garden gates are timber gates used for residential side access, garden entrances and fence lines. They are typically made from pressure-treated timber with diagonal bracing for strength, and are hung on metal hinges from timber or concrete posts.
The gate design can range from a simple closeboard gate matching the fence line to a more decorative framed gate. The choice depends on the opening, the level of privacy needed and the appearance you want. All timber gates benefit from pressure treatment to resist rot and insect attack.
Gate furniture — hinges, latches and locks — is selected to suit the gate size and how it will be used. A side access gate may need only a simple latch, while a larger garden entrance gate may benefit from a more secure locking mechanism.
