Useful Information About Drayton Double Wooden Gates

Width Dimensions: The dimensions shown in the drop-down menu at the top of the page are the total physical width of both gates when placed side by side. To avoid any confusion when placing your order this means that each pair comprises of the following:

  • 2400mm pair = 2 x 1200mm

  • 2700mm pair = 2 x 1350mm

  • 3000mm pair = 2 x 1500mm

  • 3300mm pair = 2 x 1650mm

  • 3600mm pair = 2 x 1800mm

Height Dimensions: This is measured from the bottom of the gates to the highest point. The space you will need for ground clearance has not been allowed for in this measurement. When installing, we normally recommend allowing a gap of 50mm (2”) however this will vary depending on your driveway layout.

Fittings: To add the appropriate fitting pack to your order please select the required hinges, latch and drop bolt from the options and accessories menu.

Posts: When installing, we always recommend the use of wooden posts. They can be wall mounted (if fitting between an existing masonry structure) or can be set into the ground in concrete. In both instances, the opening formed between the posts should be 40mm wider than the gates you order as this will provide the optimal spacing required for the hinges.

Finish: The Drayton design is manufactured from a low maintenance smooth planed pressure treated softwood. Please note that the treatment process will mean the timber has a green tint to it upon delivery. This is normal and will weather down over time.

Installation: To ensure the proper level of support, we only recommend hook and band hinges. These should be mounted to the top and bottom horizontal rails. For additional information refer to the general installation guide.

How to measure for wooden gates


 

What size opening will the Drayton Square Top Wooden Estate Gates fit into?

If you are fitting double gates between existing timber posts (with the hinges fitted on the back face of the gate/post) then we recommend the following space is available.

  • Physical Width of 2400mm = Fits an opening of approximately 2440mm – 2450mm  

  • Physical Width of 2700mm = Fits an opening of approximately 2740mm – 2750mm

  • Physical Width of 3000mm = Fits an opening of approximately 3040mm – 3050mm

  • Physical Width of 3300mm = Fits an opening of approximately 3340mm – 3350mm

  • Physical Width of 3600mm = Fits an opening of approximately 3640mm – 3660mm

NB* sizes are based on the options shown in the drop down menu.

What if i need to add wooden posts? 

If your installation requires wooden posts then you will need to take into account the additional space required. The calculation is worked out in the following way. 

Physical width of gates + width of posts (2 x 100mm is sufficient if using wall mounted posts or 2 x 150mm if freestanding posts are used) + 40/50mm (space needed for hinges, latch and opening tolerances)

Example: a pair of 3000mm gates combined with 2 x 100mm posts will require the existing gap between pillars to be approximately 3240mm-3250mm.

What size hinges and what fittings do i need to complete the installation?

We recommend using 2 x (pairs) 24” hook and band hinges. 1 x ring latch and a minimum of 1 x drop bolt to hold the gate closed will also be required.

Do you need hinges, posts and accessories to complete your gate installation? If required please choose from the options detailed below.
