Whether it is a pedestrian access gate or a driveway gate, choosing a gate in the same style as your fence will provide consistency in the design. Whether made to measure or pre-made, there are several types of gates to choose from, depending on your needs. Made to measure gates are great if you are after a unique design. Gates may be sliding or swing and manually or electronically operated.
However, whichever gate you choose must be secure and for this purpose, it is important to ensure that quality fixtures and locks are used. There are a wide variety of locking options available, from the traditional latch to sophisticated electronic locks that can be integrated into your home security system.
When hanging your gates, stainless steel or hot dipped galvanised steel should be used to minimise rust and corrosion, which can make gates difficult to operate. If you are using treated pine in your fence, hot dipped galvanised stainless steel must be used.
