The Stirling Bow Top Side Gate is supplied with surface-mounted hinges and a latch. These are suitable for fixing directly to an existing structure such as a wall, fence or other similar support. Alternatively, you will need to order metal posts for installations where no fixing points are available. We, therefore, recommend the following items.

If you are unsure about the type of post you need or would like help with sizes, please email sales@gardengatesdirect.co.uk before ordering.
