Product Information
Full details
The Windsor Single Garden Gate by Burbage Iron Craft is designed for homeowners seeking enhanced garden security and aesthetic appeal. Its primary benefit is the combination of durable Scandinavian Redwood and an intricately designed steel infill panel, offering both robustness and decorative charm. A key consideration is that timber sizes may vary slightly due to natural wood expansion and shrinkage, and a final finish is recommended after installation for optimal longevity.

FAQs
What type of wood is used for the Windsor Single Garden Gate?
The gate is crafted from European managed Scandinavian Redwood, selected for its durability and attractive grain.
Does the gate come pre-finished?
The gate is pressure-treated with a general-purpose preserver. A final finish, such as a stain or sealant, is recommended after fitting for optimal protection and appearance.
Can I paint or stain this gate?
Yes, you can paint or stain the gate after applying a suitable finish. Ensure the wood is clean and dry before application.
Will the wood size change over time?
Yes, timber gate sizes are subject to slight variation due to normal shrinkage or expansion caused by changes in humidity and temperature.
What are the dimensions of the frame and boards?
The gate features a robust frame measuring 70x70mm with bracing at 70x54mm and 44x44mm. The tongue and groove boards are 95x14mm.
Is the steel infill panel rust-resistant?
The steel infill panel is zinc and powder-coated black, which provides a level of resilience against rust. However, prolonged exposure to harsh elements may eventually affect its finish, and occasional maintenance might be necessary.
What is the purpose of the pressure treatment?
The pressure treatment offers protection against decay, mould, and blue-staining fungi, extending the initial lifespan of the timber.
Troubleshooting
Gate is difficult to close or latch.
Check for obstructions, ensure gate posts are plumb and stable, and verify that hinges are correctly aligned. Wood may have expanded; slight adjustment may be needed.
Wood shows signs of mould or decay.
Ensure adequate ventilation and drainage. Reapply a suitable wood preserver or sealant. If damage is significant, consult a professional.
Steel infill panel shows rust or discoloration.
Clean gently with a soft cloth. For minor rust, a metal polish designed for powder-coated surfaces may be used cautiously. Touch-up paint may be required for significant damage.
Gate sags or appears unstable.
Verify that gate posts are secure and that hinges are properly attached and aligned. Consider reinforcing hinges or checking post stability.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Ensure gate posts are securely installed and the ground is level for proper gate swing. Always check that the gate hardware (hinges and latch) is compatible with the gate's weight and dimensions. Allow for slight natural wood movement when fitting.
Compatibility: This gate is designed for standard garden openings. It can be fitted with a variety of gate hardware, available separately. Ensure hinges and latches are suitable for outdoor timber gates.
Care: The gate is pressure-treated for initial protection. For long-term durability and to maintain appearance, it is recommended to apply a compatible exterior wood stain or sealant annually, especially after the first few weeks of installation. Clean with a damp cloth and mild detergent if necessary. Avoid abrasive cleaners. Ensure adequate ventilation around the gate to prevent moisture buildup.
