Useful Information About the Essex Wooden Gate

Fittings: The Essex gate is does not include the hinges and latch as standard. If you wish to order these items, please choose the appropriate fittings pack from the menu above.

Posts: It is recommended that the gate is installed onto wooden posts of a suitable size and length. Where required, you can add these to your order from the options and accessories menu. For wall mounted posts it is essential they are secured to existing masonry using suitable fixings (not supplied). If you need to set the posts into the ground, we recommend they are dug to a depth of 600-900mm and held in place using concrete. When installing the posts, the gap formed should be 20mm wider than the physical width of the gate to allow for expansion of the timber and adequate space for the hinges and latch to operate correctly.

Finish: The gate is constructed from untreated smooth planed Scandinavian Redwood. All timber surfaces should be stained or painted before installation to protect against rot and decay.

Installation: The Essex design is a heavy-duty framed gate design. We only recommend the use of hook and band type hinges which should be fixed to the top and bottom horizontal rails for maximum support. For more guidance refer to our installation guide.
