Ordering Sizes

• Width (Fits Opening): This dimension relates to the opening size required between existing brickwork or posts. The space necessary for the hinges and latch is already included in these dimensions. Other allowances are not required.

• Physical Height: This measurement corresponds to the actual height of the gate. It is measured from the underside of the frame to the top of the arch. No provision for the space you will need for ground clearance has been included within this size.

Example Ordering Size

When the gap between your walls or posts measures 1067mm (3ft 6"), you must get a gate that is designed to "fit opening 1067mm (3ft 6")."

Are Metal Posts Required?

If there is no support for the hinges, you will have to add metal posts. When purchasing these components, remember that they will require more space.

Example: A gate to accommodate an opening of 3ft 6" combined with 2 x 2" posts will demand an overall width of 3ft 10".

Important Information About the Traditional Classic Bow Top Wrought Iron Style Side Gate

Fittings: The gate includes surface-mounted hinges and a latch fitting. Screws for installing the hinge brackets and latch receiver plate are not supplied.

Posts: Metal posts must be the proper size to offer the required amount of support. They must be set to the appropriate depth, and in-ground posts must be secured with concrete.

Installation: Only connect the hinges to existing brickwork (or other existing supports) if the arrangement can sustain the weight of the gate.  For further details, please consult the installation instructions.

Width: The "fits opening" size shown in the menu includes the space necesarry for the hinges and latch and correlates to the gap size required for the gate to fit properly. It does not refer to the actual width of the gate. You should refer to the "how to select the correct size gate" page if you do not understand what this indicates.
