Useful Information About the Vertifleur 4ft High Double Wooden Gates

Width Dimensions: The Vertifleur wooden gates are sold as a pair. The width dimension shown in the drop-down menu refer to the actual width of both gates when placed side by side. For clarification purposes, each pair is made up of the following:

  • 8ft pair = 2 x 4ft

  • 9ft pair = 2 x 4ft 6”

  • 10ft pair = 2 x 5ft

  • 11ft pair = 2 x 5ft 6”

  • 12ft pair = 2 x 6ft

Height Dimensions: This is measured from the underside of the gates to the highest point. No allowance has been made for ground clearance. It will be down to the installer to decide how much space to allow although as a general guide we normally suggest 50mm (2”).

Fittings: If you need to purchase the hinges, latch, and other associated furniture, please choose the appropriate fitting pack from the options and accessories menu.

Posts: We recommend installing the gates using wooden posts of the appropriate size to suit your needs. Both “wall mounted” and “in ground” posts can be used however in either instance the gap formed between the posts should be approximately 40mm larger than the width of the gates you order. This will then provide the optimal amount of space required for the hinges etc together with an allowance for movement of the timber throughout the seasons.

Finish: The gates are manufactured from smooth planed softwood and have not been treated in any way to provide protection against the elements. It is therefore essential that all exposed surfaces are stained or painted prior to installation.

Installation: We recommend using hook and band hinges when fitting the gates. For the best level of support, the hinges should be mounted to the top and bottom horizontal rails. For more information, please read our general installation guide.

What Size Opening Will  Be Required Between the Wooden Posts?

If you are planning to install wooden gates between existing timber posts (with the hinges positioned on the back face of the gate/post), you must have the following space available.

Physical Width of the Pair of Gates Width of Opening Required Between Posts
2134mm 2174mm
2438mm 2478mm
2743mm 2783mm
3050mm 3090mm
3350mm 3390mm
3660mm 3700mm

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

What If I Need to Add Wooden Posts? 

You must account for the added space required for installations that require wooden posts.

The calculation is carried out as follows:

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 utilised)

+ 40mm (space needed for hinges, latch and opening tolerances).

= Total Overall Space Required 

Example 

A pair of 3350mm gates combined with 2 x 100mm posts will demand a total overall space of 3590mm.

What Size Hinges and Fittings Do I Require to Complete the Installation?

We recommend using 18" or 24" hook and band hinges (depending on the size you order) 1 x ring latch and a minimum of 1 x drop bolt to keep the gates shut.
