Our
Feature Wooden Gates or Tmber Gates are built with traditional deep mortise and tenon joints, cut out of the substantial 85x65mm frames to ensure your timber gate remains in good condition for many years. While the mortise and tenon joint has been used in wooden gate construction for hundreds of years, we have the added advantage of modern epoxy resins to make our wooden gate joints rock solid. And for good measure, we pin the joins with wooden dowells in the time honoured fashion. The end result is a timber gate which will withstand an earthquake, though we stop short of guaranteeing them against neuclear war.
The timber gates below all feature a heavy wooden frame, with crosses in either the top or bottom section, whose function was to stop the wooden gate going out of square. While not strictly necessary today because of the modern epoxy glue we use in our timber gate manufacture, they are a traditional feature of the Victorian or Edwardian timber gate. Lining boards are set into the frame before the wooden gate is glued up, making for a solid and sturdy timber gate.
Ball bearing strap hinges take the weight of these solid timber gates, and a brass (or chrome) ring latch or simple D latch controls access. These timber gates are suitable to use with our automatic openers and can be set up with a deadlock and intercom opening.
