Gates and Bridges

You will have seen from our homepage that gates are something of a speciality for us.

Hardwood Gate

Through long experience we know that ‘not all gates are equal’ and neither is it always easy to know how they should be hung or even what finished size needs to be ordered.
Getting it wrong can be inconvenient if not costly.

To make life easier for you (and us!) our experienced sales team are trained to ask all the right questions from the outset and if a site visit is deemed necessary this we can also arrange with the cost be refunded against the cost of the gate*. We can on request also quote for gates to be installed if you elect for the ‘supply and fit’ service.

If you need an ‘off the shelf’ gate we carry a comprehensive stock of field gates and garden gates supplied by A J Charlton of Frome. In softwood field gates, sizes 3ft to 12ft width are always in stock and in the popular styles of softwood garden gates, 3ft x 6ft and 3ft x 3ft are also held in stock. Additionally, we carry popular sizes of galvanised 7 bar farm gates and matching metal posts.

To complement this stock we also carry a large selection of gate posts, hinges and catches, etc, including more specialised items, for example, spring loaded gate wheels, hunting latches, etc. To protect your timber gates we can offer a wide range of protective coatings from the more traditional linseed oils through to advanced silicone based water repellents and solvent based coatings.

Bespoke Gates

Bespoke gates

We are finding more customers now wanting bespoke gates; either as direct replacement to original designs or perhaps just to an unusual size or pattern – either way we can help! For the complete solution we can quote for installation as well. In the latter case this will normally be preceded by a site visit the cost of which is refundable against the contract price.
Our workshop can make gates in either joinery grade softwood or hardwood – Iroko or Oak being the most popular choice in hardwood.

We look forward to taking your call.

Bespoke pedestrian footbridge

Garden Bridge

Our design brief was to build a 10ft (3m) span pedestrian footbridge, simple in style with 'rustic appeal'. We built the bridge from a blend of the modern (laminated beam supports) and traditional (hazel branches for the post bracing) to produce a strong and eye catching design. The customer was delighted with the result and promptly ordered 30yards of matching post and rail fencing to complete the project!
