Ordering Sizes

• Width (Fits Opening): The "fits opening" sizes indicated in the menu relate to the width of the opening required between existing brickwork or posts. We have already accounted for the space necessary for the hinges and latch within these dimensions. As a result, you should not make any additional allowances for these items.To prevent misunderstanding, if the space between your brick pillars is 8ft 6", you should order the gates to "fit opening" 8ft 6".

• Height (once installed): We have included a 50mm (2") margin for ground clearance within the height specification. It is calculated by measuring the distance from the ground to the top of the horizontal frame. This measurement does not include the ball top finials atop the frame.

Are You Needing to Buy Metal Posts? 

If you need to order these components, you'll need to account for the extra space that the posts will require.

Example: The Picasso double metal gates that are made to "fit an opening" of 8ft 6" which are installed using 2 x 2" posts will necessitate a total overall space of 8ft 10".

Useful Information About the Picasso 3ft High Double Metal Driveway Gates

Fittings: We will provide you with a fitting pack with each pair of gates which contains the surface-mounted adjustable hinges, latch and drop bolt. The screws you will need to attach to the hinge brackets to brickwork or posts will not be enclosed within the fitting pack.

Posts: If you need metal posts to support the gates, you must determine the correct size and type to suit your installation. They should be placed into the ground to the required depth and be kept in place using concrete.

Installation: The hinge brackets should only be attached to existing masonry structures when they can support the weight of the gates. For further information, please take a look at the installation guide.

Width: As expressed within the "ordering sizes" passage above, the width dimensions refer to the actual opening size you will need. They are not the physical width of the gates. Please click here if you are still unsure exactly what this means.

Painting: The Picasso driveway gates are supplied with a factory applied black primer paint. This is an undercoat only. All the exposed metal surfaces will need to be treated with rust-resistant paint before installation. Alternatively, don't hesitate to get in touch with us if you would want to upgrade to our low maintenance zinc plated (electro galvanised) and black powder-coated paint finish.
