Extended Product Information

FAQs

Can I paint the composite boards?

The product is designed with a durable, finished surface and does not require painting. Altering the surface may void the integrity of the material.

Does the kit come with posts?

No, the kit includes the gate frame, composite infill boards, and hardware. Posts must be purchased separately.

How do I keep the grey color looking fresh?

Occasional cleaning with soapy water is sufficient. The material is fade-resistant and does not need protective coatings.

Is the gate reversible?

Yes, the gate hardware can typically be configured for left or right-hand opening, depending on your entry requirements.

What tools are needed for installation?

You will need a drill, spirit level, measuring tape, and a screwdriver set to assemble the hardware and frame correctly.

Troubleshooting

Gate appears to sag or drag on the ground

Adjust the tension on the gate hinges and ensure the supporting posts have not shifted in the ground.

Difficulty inserting composite boards into the frame

Check the alignment of the aluminium channels for any debris and ensure the boards are perfectly square before sliding them in.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Resistant to rot, decay, and environmental damage
  • Modern, high-end appearance with a neutral grey finish
  • Includes all necessary hardware for a complete installation
  • Requires significantly less maintenance than wooden gates

Cons

  • Material weight requires two-person handling during installation
  • Limited color options restricted to the grey finish
  • Requires specific tools for adjusting the aluminium frame components

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install, ensure your posts are level and properly secured in the ground, as the gate's performance depends on a stable foundation. Use the included hardware kit to attach the hinges to the pre-measured points on the aluminium frame. Since this is a composite product, you do not need to apply protective sealants or preservatives. For ongoing care, simply wash the gate with a mild soap and water solution to remove dirt or debris; avoid using high-pressure power washers or harsh chemical cleaners, as these may damage the composite surface texture over time.
