FAQs

What is the actual size of the gate?

The width dimension provided for the gate refers to the post-to-post gap it is designed to fit. The physical dimensions of the gate itself are slightly smaller to allow for the installation of hinges and a latch.

What material is the gate made from?

The gate is constructed from solid steel, featuring frames of 25mm x 10mm and infill bars of 12mm diameter.

Does the gate come with posts, hinges, or a latch?

No, this product listing is for the gate only. Posts, hinges, and latch hardware need to be purchased separately.

What is the finish of the gate?

The standard finish is primed or powder-coated black, designed for outdoor durability.

How tall is the gate?

The gate measures 1943mm to the top of the ball finials. The shoulder frame height is 1770mm.

Can I paint the gate a different color?

Yes, the gate can be repainted. Ensure proper surface preparation by cleaning and priming before applying a suitable metal paint.

How do I maintain the black finish?

Clean the gate periodically with a damp cloth. Touch up any scratches or chipped areas with primer and matching metal paint to prevent rust.

Troubleshooting

Gate does not close properly

Check that the posts are plumb and the gap measurement is correct. Ensure hinges and latch are aligned and not obstructed. The gate may need adjustment or the posts may need to be reset.

Gate is difficult to swing

Inspect hinges for rust or damage. Lubricate hinges with a suitable metal lubricant. Check that the gate is not rubbing against the ground or posts.

Rust spots appearing on the finish

Clean the affected area with a soft brush. Apply a metal primer followed by a matching black metal paint to the area to prevent further corrosion.

Latch mechanism is stiff

Clean any dirt or debris from the latch mechanism. Apply a graphite-based lubricant or a silicone spray to the moving parts.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Measure Gap: Accurately measure the post-to-post gap where the gate will be installed. Ensure this measurement matches the gap size specified for the gate.
  2. Install Posts: If new posts are required, ensure they are securely set in the ground, allowing for the gate's gap measurement plus clearance for hinges and latch.
  3. Mount Hinges: Attach the gate hinges to the posts and the gate itself, following the manufacturer's instructions for your specific hinge type.
  4. Hang Gate: Carefully hang the gate on the hinges, checking for smooth operation and clearance.
  5. Install Latch: Fit the gate latch mechanism to the opposite post and the gate, ensuring it engages correctly.

Compatibility:

  • Posts: Compatible with sturdy wooden or metal posts that can support the weight of a solid steel gate. The distance between these posts must match the gate's specified gap size.
  • Hardware: Requires standard gate hinges and a latch. Ensure chosen hardware is robust enough for the gate's size and weight.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Periodically clean the gate with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
  • Inspection: Regularly inspect the gate for any signs of rust or damage, particularly at weld points or scratches in the finish.
  • Maintenance: Touch up any chipped paintwork with appropriate metal primer and paint to prevent corrosion. Ensure hinges and latches are lubricated as needed.
