FAQs
Can this gate be installed on a wooden fence?
Yes, but you must ensure that the mounting points for the posts are reinforced to handle the weight of the steel structure.
Is the steel painted or raw?
The steel is galvanized to prevent rust and features a silver finish.
What tools are needed for installation?
You will need a shovel, a spirit level, concrete mix, and basic fastening tools like wrenches or a drill.
Can I get extra keys if I lose mine?
The gate comes with 3 keys; if you require more, you may be able to have them duplicated by a professional locksmith.
What is the actual door width?
The door panel itself measures 83 cm in width.
Does it come with all necessary hardware?
Yes, the product includes the posts, hinges, and the heavy-duty locking system.
Troubleshooting
The gate does not latch properly.
Check that the posts are level; if the posts are leaning, the locking catch will not align with the lock mechanism.
The gate swings too loosely or drags on the ground.
Tighten the hinge hardware to ensure the gate is properly supported and centered within the frame.
Key does not turn smoothly in the lock.
Apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant into the lock cylinder to ensure internal pins move freely.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation of the VidaXL Garden Gate requires basic hardware tools, including a level, a shovel for digging post holes, and concrete mix for anchoring. Begin by measuring your opening to confirm compatibility with the 105 x 200 cm total frame dimensions.
- Dig two holes for the posts at the correct spacing.
- Place the posts in the holes and ensure they are perfectly vertical using a spirit level.
- Fill with concrete and allow it to cure completely before attaching the gate panels.
- Use the provided hinges to mount the door, ensuring the lock aligns with the catch on the opposing post.
To maintain the gate, wipe it down periodically with a damp cloth to remove debris. While the steel is galvanized, if you notice any deep scratches, applying a touch-up metal primer or exterior paint will help maintain the rust-resistant barrier.
