& Access Control

Welcome to Resurrection Gates and Fences.

As front picket fence contractors, we have been making woven wire gates and Timber gates or wooden gates, and other garden fencing around Melbourne since 1982, and have developed our automatic gates and steel gate products to meet the increasing demand for gate automation. We have also developed a range of modern fencing to meet the increasing contemporary fence needs of modern architecture.
We can design and build your front fence and gates so that the result is sympathetic to your needs and to the style of your home, whether it be a traditional picket fence or contemporary design.

Front Fence: Picket Fence

The first picket fence designs were simple square pickets with square cut chamfered posts. Victorian industrialisation saw an impressive increase in both wealth and technology, providing ther impetus for more ornate picket fences and timber gates. Shaped steel blades set on wheels and driven by steam engines made the manufacture of turned posts, post capitals and pickets, while mortising machines made mortised joints on chairs, cabinetry and gates widespread. Later Edwardian and californian bungalow picket fencing featured joinery gates and moulded capping and fretwork. The picket fence regained popularity in the 1980s renovation boom and has been a feature of Melbourne's housing ever since.

Garden Gates and Garden Fencing: Garden gate and fence design

Garden gates and garden fences are usually woven wire or a simple picket fence, kept low to show off the garden. Victorian and Edwardian gardens featured formal geometry with straight paths and hedging. Later Californian Bungalow and Art Deco styles were less formal and often used curving paths and large lawns. Cottage gardens using roses, lavender and ground covers can be best shown off with woven wire fences or low picket fences. For more information on garden fencing, go to our garden gates and garden fences page.

Modern Fence Design: Contemporary fencing.
Contemporary fencing has become popular with the rise of modern domestic architecture. We have developed a range of modern fence and modern gates using timber, steel, masonry and hardboard in order to create contemporary fencing which is sympathetic to the modern ascetic. Go to our Modern Fence page for more information and pictures.

High Privacy fencing can be built with the same quality posts and framing as a picket fence and other feature fences, but with either tongue and groove lining boards or ripple iron. Bluescope Steel make a high tensile ripple iron called Mini-orb which is galvanised and painted with their patented Zincalume and colorbond systems. This cladding is attractive and will keep it's looks for decades.

Timber Gates or Wooden Gates

Our timber gates feature the traditional joinery craftsmanship of deep mortise and tenon joints, utilizing modern epoxy glues and treated timber to ensure that your wooden gate will keep it's good looks for many years. These timber gates usually complement a period picket fence. See our wooden gates page for more information.
